Premium Factory amplified Systems
fader must be adjusted through the
RP interface. See vehicle Settings menu below.
3. Verify that the factory subwoofer (if present) is playing
4. Verify that all SWC are functioning properly.
If not all SWC are functioning properly you need to re-calibrate the

PLEASE NOTE: The LCD must display text from the factory radio to support the menu function. If your screen does
not display radio text, you must watch for the info to change when pressing and holding the Info button. Once the info
changes you can then use the Info button to scroll through the factory info or use the Volume and Tune buttons to set the
clock. Change Text, Display Info, User Options and Amp Settings will not be available in these vehicles. After 8 seconds
the screen will time out.
