Auto-equalizing Function

This product’s Auto-equalizer automatically measures car interior acoustic characteristics, and then creates the Auto-equalizer curve based on that information.

Before Operating the Auto-equalization

7WARNING:

•To prevent accidents, never perform Auto-equalizing when driving. When this function measures car interior acoustic characteristics to create an Auto-equalizer curve, a loud measurement tone (noise) may be output from the speakers.

7Precaution:

•Performing Auto-equalizing under the following conditions may damage the speakers. Be sure to check conditions thoroughly before performing Auto-equalizing.

*When speakers are incorrectly connected. (e.g. When a rear speaker is connected to a subwoofer output.)

*When a speaker is connected to a power amp delivering output higher than the speak- er’s maximum input power capability.

•If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable position the measurement tone may become loud and measurement may take a long time, resulting in a drain on battery power. Be sure to place the microphone in the specified location. (Refer to page 42.)

7Read this before performing Auto-equalizing

•Perform Auto-equalizing in as quiet a place as possible, with the car engine and air con- ditioning switched off. Also cut power to car or portable telephones in the car, or remove from the car before performing Auto-equalizing. Sounds other than the measure- ment tone (surrounding sounds, engine sound, telephones ringing etc.) may prevent cor- rect measurement of car interior acoustic characteristics.

•Be sure to perform Auto-equalizing with the supplied microphone. Using another micro- phone will prevent measurement, or result in incorrect measurement of car interior acoustic characteristics.

•With no speaker connected, Auto-equalizing cannot be performed.

•When connected to a power amp with input level control, Auto-equalizing may not be possible if you lower power amp input level. Set the power amp’s input level to the stan- dard position.

•After normal completion of Auto-equalizing, fader/balance settings (refer to page 35) return to the center position (initial settings).

•If you perform Auto-equalizing when Auto-equalizer curve already exists, the previous curve is erased.

•If you perform Auto-equalizing, the equalizer curve switches to flat.

•If you perform Auto-equalizing while a Subwoofer is connected to this product, it will be adjusted automatically Subwoofer output setting. (Subwoofer output is automatically turned on adjusted even if you have turned it off before.)
