How to use the M MODE button

If you press M MODE, the unit goes into functions mode, then the number buttons work as different function buttons.

Ex.: When number button 2 works as

MO (monaural) button.

Time countdown indicator

To use these buttons for their original functions again after pressing M MODE, wait

for 5 seconds without pressing any of these buttons until the functions mode is cleared or press M MODE again.

Caution on volume setting:

Discs produce very little noise compared with other sources. Lower the volume before playing a disc to avoid damaging the speakers by the sudden increase of the output level.

For safety...

• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.

• Stop the car before performing any complicated operations.

Temperature inside the car...

If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car becomes normal before operating the unit.
