Turning the Power On/Off
1. Use the POWER switch (p. 9) to turn the power
on/off.
* The power to this unit will be turned off automatically after a
predetermined amount of time has passed since it was last used
for playing music, or its buttons or controls were operated (Auto
Off function). If you do not want the power to be turned off
automatically, disengage the Auto Off function (p. 31).
To restore power, turn the power on again.
* Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume
down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some
sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and
does not indicate a malfunction.
