When making connections, be sure to:
• turn off all equipment before making any
connections.
• use the proper cables for each connection.
• insert the plugs of the cables properly; plugs that are
not fully inserted often generate noise. When pulling
out a cable, be sure to pull it out from the plug, not
the cable itself.
