Turning the P 3 On and Off
You can turn the P 3 on and off with the On-Off button on its front panel, with the On
and Off buttons on its remote control handset, or with an external DC source.
Turning On the P 3
Press either the On-Off Button on the front panel or the On button on the remote control.
Turning Off the P 3
Press either the On-Off Button on the front panel or the Off button on the remote control.
YOU SHOULD KNOW
Even when the P 3 is turned off, there is a faint glow behind its On-Off button and its P logo
badge to indicate that AC power is present. When you turn it on, the P badge and the glow
behind the On-Off button brighten, and the front panel displays the previously selected input
and volume.
Adjusting the Volume Level
You can control the overall volume level of the P 3 in 1 dB steps with the large knob on
the front panel or the Volume and buttons on the remote control.
To increase volume, turn the volume control knob in a clockwise direction or press the
Volume button on the remote control.
To decrease volume, turn the volume control knob in a counter-clockwise direction or
press the Volume button on the remote control.

P 3 Volume Indication
The P 3 displays volume from 00 to 80. These numbers do not correspond to reference voltages.
Muting the Main Outputs
You can mute the output of the P 3 whenever you want to quickly interrupt listening
and return to the same volume setting. The Mute button reduces volume to zero much
faster than turning the knob on the front panel or holding the Volume button on the
remote control.
Muting the Output of the P 3
Press the Mute button on the remote control. MUTE will flash in the front panel display.
The small red indicator at the lower right of the front panel will illuminate red.
Taking the P 3 Out Of the Mute Mode
Press the Mute button on the remote control. You will also defeat muting by adjusting
the volume control knob or by pressing the Volume or buttons on the remote handset.
YOU SHOULD KNOW
When you press the Mute button on the remote control, the signal is muted at the Line Out,
Phones, and Loop Output jacks, but not at the Tape Rec/Out jacks. You will automatically turn
off mute if you press the Mute button a second time or change the volume level.
