Be sure that the PA210 POWER switch is set to the OFF position. 2. Turn each of the channel VOLUME and MASTER VOLUME controls fully counterclockwise, to the O position. 3. Next, connect one side of the included power cable to the PA210 mixer's power inlet and the other to a grounded AC power outlet. 4. Connect your microphones using standard XLR cables, instruments using 1/4 cables, and MP3 player using 1/8 cable, into the appropriate jacks on the mixer. 5. Switch on all equipment connected to the PA210 first, then switch the PA210 POWER switch to the ON position. 6. Turn the MASTER VOLUME control about 1/2 of the way up. 7. Start talking or playing into channel 1 while slowly adjusting the VOLUME control until you have reached the desired level. Do the same for each channel you are using. 8.
