The jacks on the back left side of the radio are for audio input (AUX IN),

audio output (LINE OUT) and a timer activation switch

.

AUDIO & RECORDING JACKS

AUX IN Jack

The green jack, labeled AUX IN, is used to connect an external audio

source such as a CD Player or recorder, so you can listen through your

CCRadio2ʼs speaker. To do this, you will need the appropriate patch

cord. (Refer to page 22 for patch cord specifications).

Warning: If a “LINE OUT” is not available on your external audio
source, you can use the headphone jack. However, the volume
must be kept low or damage to the CCRadio 2 may result.

1) Plug your patch cord into the LINE OUT or Headphone Jack of your

external audio source.

2) Plug the other end into the AUX IN jack on the CCRadio2.
3) With the power on, press and hold the Band/AUX Button until you

hear a short beep and AUX appears on the display.

4) Turn on your external audio source to hear the audio played

through the CCRadio2.

5) To turn the AUX off, press the Band/AUX Button again and the AUX

will disappear from the display.

NOTE:

Volume can be controlled from the CCRadio2
