PHYSIOLOGICAL TONE CONTROL
The human ear perceives less of low and high frequency sounds at smaller volume. By turning
LOUDNESS
(
LOUD
in the menu) function on, automatic tone adjustment will correct this effect at low
volume. The lower the volume is, the greater is the emphasis on bass and treble. It is recommended to
switch off this function at a higher volume, as it may cause distorted sound.
• In order to get better sound quality, before using this function it is recommended to choose EQ OFF
setting, and set the high/low equalizers to „0” position.
• The higher the volume is, the less noticeable effect on the automatic tone correction in perceivable.
• See the SETTINGS section for more details.
SELECTING THE FUNCTIONS AND THE SIGNAL SOURCE
You can select the source you want to listen to by briefly touching the
button repeatedly.
Attention; press and hold to turn off the radio! Available options:

• It is basically recommended to use a microSD card due to its smaller space requirement and safer
placement. The USB device must be connected to the USB socket on the right, the other is for charging
purposes.
• After connection, the program of the last inserted USB or microSD device will be played.
• The available functions depend on the settings you have made in the SETTINGS menu in each mode.

USING THE WIRELESS BT FUNCTIONS
The device can be paired with other equipment which is communicating by BT protocol. After
that, music which is played by mobile phone, tablet, notebook and other similar device is audible
amplified. In case of incoming call, it is possible to answer call, make the call hands-free and end
call, without touching the phone. The car radio has to be connected with the external microphone
supplied with it, which is recommended to be placed at head height. Try to speak in the direction
that your conversation partner can hear you in even better sound quality. Keep windows closed
when making a call because driving noise or a roaring ventilation fan can significantly impair speech
intelligibility.
• The external microphone must be connected to the rear M / C socket before installing the car sound
system. By hiding the wire (
≈
3m), it can be routed under the edge of the dashboard to the appropriate
point in the “A” column or awning where the microphone is clipped.
• The sensitivity of this microphone can be adjusted, see the BT connection description in the SETTINGS
menu. If your conversation partner hears you barely, increase the sensitivity!
The following extra features are available for a phone paired with the radio:
ringtone on car speakers / call number display / answer call / end call / use car radio
external microphone / play BT music from phone storage or on-line / control music player
on mobile device / advanced features with SMARTLINK
Answer a call: when the phone rings, the radio switches to BT mode - for example, if you listen to
the radio or turn it on if it was turned off - you turn up the volume / ringtone on the car speakers and
CALL IN message on the radio / the caller’s number appears / you can answer the call by touching any
button (ACCEPT message) / the display shows the elapsed time of the conversation
End a call: using the button (HUNG UP text on the display) / switches back to radio mode if, for
example, you have listened to it before
Touch the button for 4 seconds to disconnect and reestablish the BT connection to the phone.
Control music playback: play / pause and previous song or next song.
CONNECTION: Select
BT
mode with the [HANGJEGY szimbólum] button. If no external device is
connected, the message
NOT PAIR
is displayed. Locate nearby
BT
devices, including this car radio, as
described in the user guide of the mobile device to be paired. Connect the two devices, which require
two radio profiles to be connected to the phone at the same time. These are usually called VB 8000 (or
CAR BT) and SMARTLINK. The previous connection transmits the traditional BT functions to the radio
(music playback, telephone conversation, call…) If successfully connected,
BT ON
can be read and
BT MUSIC
and text information while music is playing. You can then hear the phone conversation or
the music playing from the phone through the car speakers.
The second (SMARTLINK) profile connects the SMARTLINK application to be installed on your phone to
the radio and allows you to remotely control the radio and extend its functions. Without a SMARTLINK
connection, the front panel quick buttons (voice assist, phone, navigation, messages) will not work
and the message NOT PAIR may appear.
Adjust the appropriate output volume not only on the car radio but also on the phone. Many phones
have a BT output and a multimedia output control in addition to the standard volume control. They
should not be muted because it will result in a quiet sound transmission.
• Even with a BT connection, the text information of the song will appear on the car sound system display,
if the song contains such information. See the MUSIC PLAYBACK section for details.
• Occasionally, you may find that certain characters appear incorrectly or not at all. This is mainly affected
on the special or accented characters and not the fault of the device.
• One radio can be paired with one BT device at the same time. Actual operation range depends on the
other device and environmental conditions.
• Volume and sound quality of BT connection is affected by the audio settings of connected mobile phone,
the EQ and similar settings.
• The display of the caller's telephone number may also depend on the caller's telephone setting and
service provider.
• The smooth operation of the radio and telephone may be affected by numerous external conditions
beyond the control of the manufacturer of this product. Examples include phone privileges, a secure
connection, operating system, third-party application features, and more.
• In some cases, it is recommended to turn off the auto screen lock for smoother use in the vehicle or to
allow it to be released externally.
• If there is a problem with the BT connection, turn the radio off or on or turn BT mode on the phone and
radio, or restart the devices, or use the RST button on the radio.
• Other devices connected to the phone (e.g. smartphones) may affect the connection. If necessary,
disconnect them and then connect the radio.
MUSIC PLAYBACK – FROM USB/MICROSD STORAGE
