Rosen A8 Owner’s Manual
LISTENING OVER THE CAR SPEAKERS
The A8 uses an FM Modulator to send audio through the vehicle radio and thus through the speakers. To listen to A8 system audio through your car speakers:
1Press SPEAKER. “Speaker Sound Enabled” will appear on the screen. (If “Headphone Sound Only” appears, press SPEAKER again.)
USING THE INCLUDED WIRELESS HEADPHONES
The system comes with two pair of wireless infrared (IR) head- phones, Rosen model number AC3003, which receive a signal from an IR transmitter concealed in the frame around the display. These headphones allow
2Turn on the car radio. Make sure MUTE is off. Tune to FM frequency 87.9. If no system audio is heard, try tuning in 88.3.
To turn off A8 system audio over the car speakers, press SPEAKER. “Headphone Sound Only” appears on the screen. Audio from the A8 system is then heard only over the headphones.
The system “remembers” which mode you have selected, and will return to that mode each time the system is turned on. You may want to store the FM Modulator frequency as a preset on your radio for ease of use. This will be either 87.9 or 88.3 FM.
Note: When the FM Modulator is on, you may notice some reduced radio reception. When the system is off, the FM Modulator also turns off. To listen to the radio when the system is not in use, close the monitor, and both the system and the FM Modulator will turn off.
Note: If there seems to be a strong station on the FM Modulator frequency, your Rosen authorized dealer can switch the system to the alternate frequency.
To turn the headphones on and off, push the Power ON/OFF button on the right ear piece. The Power LED on the left ear piece indicates when headphone power is on. Power turns off automatically after three minutes of no audio to preserve battery life.
To adjust the headphone volume, rotate the thumb wheel switch on the headphones.
