Rosen A9 Owner’s Manual
LISTENING OVER THE CAR SPEAKERS
The A9 uses an FM Modulator to send audio through the vehicle radio and thus through the speakers. To listen to A9 system audio through your car speakers:
1Press SPEAKER. “Speaker Sound Enabled” will appear on the screen. (If “Headphone Sound Only” appears, press SPEAKER again.)
2Turn on the car radio. Make sure A9 MUTE is off. Tune to FM frequency 87.9. If no A9 audio is heard, try tuning in 88.3.
To turn off A9 system audio over the car speakers, press SPEAKER. “Headphone Sound Only” appears on the screen. Audio from the A9 system is then heard only over the headphones.
The A9 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 A9 is not in use, close the A9 monitor, and both the A9 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.
WATCHING BROADCAST TELEVISION
(ON TV TUNER-EQUIPPED SYSTEMS)
You can watch television or videotapes on the A9 if you have installed the optional CV4000 TV Tuner kit (includes TV Tuner, antenna, and an AC3024 TV/VCP harness).
Note: Broadcast television reception varies with location, terrain, distance from the broadcast tower, and other factors. Signal quality is likely to vary in a moving vehicle.
1Press SOURCE to select the “TV Tuner” input. “TV Tuner” and a channel number (for example, “2”) will appear on the screen.
2Press the UP CH and DOWN CH arrow buttons on the remote to change channels. You can also use the UP and DOWN arrows on the front control panel.
3To scan all available channels, press SOURCE MENU.
Note: To watch broadcast television or videotapes in their original format, press the DISPLAY MODE button on the remote control until “Standard” is displayed on the screen. This will properly size the image, instead of stretching the image across the A9 wide screen. In “Standard” mode, you will see black bars on the sides of the image, like this:
