!The time alignment value calculated by auto TA and EQ may differ from the actual distance in the following circumstances. However, the distance has been calculated by computer to be the optimum delay to give accurate results for the circum- stances, so please continue to use this value.

When the reflected sound within a vehi- cle is strong and delays occur.

When delays occur for low sounds due to the influence of the LPF on active subwoofers or external amps.

Carrying out auto TA and EQ

1Stop the car in a place that is as quiet as possible, close all doors, windows and the sun roof, and then turn the engine off. If the engine is left running, engine noise may prevent correct auto TA and EQ.

2Fix the supplied microphone in the cen- ter of the headrest of the driver’s seat, fa- cing forward, using the belt (sold separately).

The auto TA and EQ may differ depending on where you place the microphone. If desired, place the microphone on the front passenger seat to carry out auto TA and EQ.

TA and EQ.

# Press SRC/OFF to turn the source on if this unit is turned off.

4Select the position for the seat on which the microphone is placed.

Refer to Using the position selector on page
