3. Certain generators
may cause background
noise.
4. AM reception will most
likely be clearer when
powered by a battery
pack.
5. To use the auxiliary
port, plug the output
jack from a portable
CD/MP3/IPod
®
or
cassette player into
the port shown in Fig
ure (E). The sound
from the external
source will play
through the speakers
