Auto EQ (auto-equalizing)

The auto-equalizer automatically measures the car’s interior acoustic characteristics, and then creates an auto-equalizer curve based on that information.

!To perform this function, dedicated microphone (e.g. CD-MC20) is required.

WARNING

As a loud tone (noise) may be emitted from the speakers when measuring the car's interior acoustic characteristics, never perform auto EQ while driving.

CAUTION

!Thoroughly check the conditions before performing auto EQ as the speakers may be damaged if these functions are performed when:

—The speakers are incorrectly connected. (For example, when a rear speaker is connected as a subwoofer output.)
