You may need to adjust the audio“Line Out Level” in the menu options of
your receiver to achieve optimal performance from this sound system. Please
see your XM receiver user guide for additional information on this adjustment.
2Use the volume buttons on the Sound System or remote control to adjust
the sound level.

included with your sound system. (see page 12)

muted when the headphones are in use.
Your Sound System has an aux in jack for connecting CD or MP3 players using a mini
