SOUND ADJUSTMENTS
Turning on/off the loudness function
This section is ONLY FOR KD-SX740.
The human ear is less sensitive to low and high frequencies at low volumes.
The loudness function can boost these frequencies to produce well-balanced sound at low
volume level.
Each time you press LOUD, the loudness function turns on and off alternatively.
LOUD
Turning on/off the BBE function
This section is ONLY FOR KD-SX840.
Press BBE to turn BBE circuit* ON and OFF.
BBE
ENGLISH
*BBE circuit
The BBE system restores the brilliance and clarity of the original live sound in recording,
broadcasts, etc.
When a speaker reproduces sound, it introduces frequency-dependent phase shifting, causing
high-frequency sounds to take longer to reach the ear than low frequency sounds. The BBE
circuit adjusts the phase relationship between the low , mid and high frequencies b y adding a
progressively longer delay time to the lo w and mid frequencies , so that all frequencies reach
the listener’s ears at the proper time.
In addition, the BBE circuit boosts low and high frequencies, which loudspeakers tend to be
less efficient in reproducing, through dynamic, program-driven augmentation. When combined
with the phase compensation feature, the resulting sound has a clearer, more finely detailed
“live” presence.

Before operating your CD automatic changer:
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with your CD changer.
• If no discs are in the magazine of the CD changer or the discs are inserted upside
down, “NO CD” or “NO DISC” will appear on the display. If this happens, remove the
magazine and set the discs correctly.

Handling CDs
This unit has been designed only to reproduce the CDs bearing the mark.
Other discs cannot be played back.
How to handle CDs
When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of the case
and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD around the center
holder (with the printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.
To keep CDs clean
A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft
cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
To play new CDs
New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such
a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD play er ma y malfunction. In this case , eject the CD and leav e the unit turned on
for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be ejected.)
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape – like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.
• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperatur e
and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean
CDs.

Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
How to reset your unit

the same time for several seconds.
This will reset the built-in microcomputer.
NOTE: Your preset adjustments — such as preset channels or sound adjustments
— will also be erased.
