BEFORE USE
*
For safety....
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will
block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.
*
Temperature inside the car....
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or
cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car
becomes normal before operating the unit.
How to use the MODE button
If you press MODE, the unit goes into functions mode, then the number buttons and 5/ buttons
work as different function buttons.
Ex.: When number button 2 works as MO (monaural) button.
To use these buttons for original functions again after pressing MODE, wait for 5 seconds
without pressing any of these buttons until the functions mode is cleared.
• Pressing MODE again also clears the functions mode.
