Section IV: Operating the PhatBox
The PhatBox is controlled through the CD changer controls of your existing car stereo head unit.
!
The PhatBox operates differently than a standard CD Changer! Please read the instructions below carefully to learn how to properly use the PhatNoise Car Audio system.
Becuase every radio is designed differently, please refer to the included Quick Start Guide to learn how to use the buttons on your particular radio.
Most radios have limited control and display capabilities. These limitations caused PhatNoise to reinvent the user interface for your PhatBox. We call this new method of operation SSA, which stands for Simple Stereo Architecture. This system maximizes the functionality and ease of use of the PhatBox through voice prompting, while using the existing equipment in your car.
SSA allows you to quickly switch between different playback modes. These modes determine the next song that will play. You can browse through lists of playlists, artists, albums and genres without taking your eyes off the road. Please read this entire section to get a better idea of how this system works.
Starting the PhatBox
The PhatBox is available through the CD mode of your radio. The unit powers on and off automatically, and resumes where you last left playback.
To begin playback:
1.Insert the DMS cartridge into the cartridge slot of the PhatBox.
2.Turn on your radio and switch to the CD mode. This is labeled CD or MODE on your radio.
3.Playback will resume where the system last stopped.
