Using Line-In

You can connect an external source, such as a portable music player, to your Sonos PLAY:5. The device will be automatically

detected as soon as you plug it in.

• To connect a portable music player, use the supplied 1/8" (3,5mm) stereo audio cable to plug a music player into the

Audio In connection on the back of your S5.

• To connect another external source, such as a CD player, you can use a 1/8" (3,5mm) mini-stereo to RCA audio cable.

Plug the mini-stereo end into the S5, and plug the RCA end into the audio outputs on the external device.
