BASIC CONTROLS
Power: The sound system will
operate with the car's ignition
switch in either the
on or oft position.
To operate the radio
or the optional CD changer, simply
push the power button located at
the lower left corner of the radio
faceplate. Pushing the power
button again will turn the radio off.
A tape cassette can be played
without using the power button by
simply inserting the tape into the
cassette port. As soon as the
cassette is drawn into position, it
will begin to play.
Mode:
Pushing this button
repeatedly will
cause the radio
to cycle through each of its
operating modes: tuner, cassette
player and CD changer (if so
equipped).
Volume:
Sound level is adjusted by
means of the volume bar located on
the left side
of the radio
faceplate.
Press upward to increase volume or
downward to decrease volume.
Speed-Dependent Volume
Adjustment:
A special function
adjusts the volume of sound a preset
amount according to vehicle speed.
Thus, increased wind and road noise
are compensated for as the vehicle
is driven faster. When vehicle speed
and thus ambient sound level drop,
the volume is automatically lowered
a preset amount.
Telephone Mute
(activated by
optional integrated cellular
telephone): The volume of sound
automatically diminishes when the
telephone is in use and the radio
display will show
TEL
; set volume
returns when the call is completed.
Tone:
Two tone buttons, identified
by musical notes, are located
above the volume bar. The left
button controls bass, and the right
controls treble. A bar graph at the
left of the radio display indicates
relative bass and treble settings.
To bring both bass and treble tones
to their midrange settings, press
both buttons simultaneously. To
bring either bass or treble tone to
maximum level, press and hold the
respective button. If the button is
released and then pressed again,
the tone level will move toward its
minimum level. To reverse
adjustment direction, the maximum
level must be reached first. The
system is equipped with a memory
function that will store the
adjustment tone levels of AM, FM,
cassette and optional CD modes
separately.
