Picture 3: 
 
Because the pin connections for continuous power and 
ignition are not identical across vehicle types, the flat 
connectors allow the correct connections to be made. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
In order to be able to use all functions of the 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

 the unit should be connected to the 

permanent plus, therefore connect the two yellow cables – the PIN 24 of the system plug with the yellow 
cable of the ISO-Adapter. 
 
Test the functionality by inserting the Navi-charger cable in the 12V-connector of the ISO-Adapter socket. The 
charger cable should now be supplied with power (check the LED of the charger plug is illuminated).  If the charger 
has no power, then connect the Yellow cable from 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

 (PIN 24) with the red cable of 

the ISO-Adapter.  Test the functionality of the Navi charger cable again.  
 
Tip: 

 

    “Auto 

Power 

Function” 

 
Simply connect the 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

 to the Continuous plus (Picture 3) to use the Auto Power 

Function. When the radio is switched on, Sound2Nav will be activated automatically.  After switching off the radio 
or after the last audio output, all functions remain available for about 40 minutes. After this, the 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

 will switch into quiescent mode, which will avoid discharging the battery

The 12V output for Navi-charger cable is also controlled by AutoPower-funktion of 

FastMute

 

Sonic 

XL

.  

 
If 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL 

 

is not used in conjunction with a modern radio, then the ignition signal can be 

used to activate the functionality.  The switch-off delay functions in addition to the ignition signal. For this 
configuration, the +12V continuous plus is connected to PIN 24 (yellow) and, in addition, the +12V ignition plus is 
connected to PIN 22 (red). 
 
 
Tip:                                                   “Dynamic Loudspeaker Control” 
 
To make full use of the dynamic loudspeaker control of 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

, the mute signal should 

NOT be connected to the radio. 
 
Without the mute signal connected, the rear loudspeakers remain active during Navi announcements i.e. music, 
news or traffic announcements continue to be heard. 
During the output of MP3 audio through 

FastMute

 

Sonic XL

 the rear loudspeakers are automatically 

activated  
(Long-Time-Mode). 
If you prefer to switch off the rear loudspeakers during Navi announcements, connect the flat connector for the 
mute signal as described below on the DIN-ISO Adapter:   
Connect cable white/brown (PIN 19) to cable white/brown, or 
Connect cable white/brown (PIN 19) to cable white/yellow. 
 
Some radios have a so-called “Navi-Mute-Connection“ which, during a Navi announcement, reduces the radio 
volume. To use this function, you can connect the mute signal with this cable to the radio. 

(Note: Observe the correct pin connection for the mute signal of the radio. The layout of radio connections can be different from the standard).
