4 ENGLISH ESPAÑOL DEUTSCH FRANÇAIS ITALIANO NEDERLANDS Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: • Start your volume control at a low setting. • Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distor- tion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level: • Set the dial and leave it there. Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime. W e W ant Y ou Listening F or A Lifetime Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid pro - longed exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection. Decibel Level Example 30 Quiet library, soft whispers 40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic 50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office 60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine 70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant 80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet. THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE 90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower 100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill 120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap 140 Gunshot blast, jet plane 180 Rocket launching pad Information courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.

When this function measures the car interior acoustic characteris- tics to create an auto-equalizer curve, a loud measurement tone (noise) may be output from the speakers. 61
PRECAUTION: • Carrying out auto-equalizing under the follow- ing conditions may damage the speakers. Be sure to check conditions thoroughly before carrying out auto-equalizing. – When speakers are incorrectly connected. (e.g., When a rear speaker is connected to a subwoofer output.) – When a speaker is connected to a power amp delivering output higher than the speak- er’s maximum input power capability. • If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable position the measurement tone may become loud and measurement may take a long time, resulting in a drain on battery power. Be sure to place the microphone in the specified loca- tion. (Refer to “Carrying out auto-equalizing.) Before operating the auto-equalization function • Carry out auto-equalizing in as quiet a place as possible, with the car engine and air condi- tioning switched off. Also cut power to car phones or portable telephones in the car, or remove from the car before carrying out auto- equalizing. Sounds other than the measure- ment tone (surrounding sounds, engine sound, telephones ringing etc.) may prevent correct measurement of car interior acoustic characteristics. • Be sure to carry out auto-equalizing using the supplied microphone. Using another micro- phone may prevent measurement, or result in incorrect measurement of car interior acoustic characteristics. • Neither front nor rear speaker is connected, auto-equalizing cannot be carried out. • When this product is connected to a power amp with input level control, auto-equalizing may not be possible if you lower power amp input level. Set the power amp’s input level to the standard position. • Auto-equalizing changes the audio settings as below: – The fader/balance settings return to the cen- ter position. (Refer to page 56.) – The graphic equalizer curve switches to “FLAT”. (Refer to page 55.) – When a subwoofer is connected to this prod- uct, it will be adjusted automatically either subwoofer output and high pass filter setting for rear speaker. • If you carry out auto-equalizing when an auto- equalizer curve already exists, the previous curve will be erased. Carr ying out auto-equalizing 1. Stop the car in a place that is as quiet as possible, close all doors, windows and the sun roof, and then turn the engine off. If the engine is left running, engine noise may prevent correct auto-equalizing. 2. Fix the supplied microphone in the center of the headrest of the driver’s seat, facing forward, using the belt (sold separately). The auto-equalizer curve may differ depend- ing on where you place the microphone. If desired, place the microphone on the front passenger seat to carry out auto-equalizing.

79 Additional Information T erms A TRAC3 Short for “Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding3”. This is an audio compression tech- nology for high-quality and high compression. It is possible to compress music data to about 1/10th the level of a CD, allowing miniaturiza- tion of storage media. Bit rate This expresses data volume per second, or bps units (bits per second). The higher the rate, the more information is available to reproduce the sound. Using the same encoding method (such as ATRAC3), the higher the rate, the better the sound. (As different encoding methods are use for MP3 and ATRAC3, a simple comparison is impossible.) ID3 T ag This is a method of embedding track-related information in a MP3 file. This embedded infor- mation can include the track title, the artist’s name, the album title, the music genre, the year of production, comments and other data. The contents can be freely edited using software with ID3 Tag editing functions. Although the tags are restricted to the number of characters, the information can be viewed when the track is played back. ISO9660 format This is the international standard for the format logic of CD-ROM folders and files. For the ISO9660 format, there are regulations for the following two levels. Level 1: The file name is in 8.3 format (the name con- sists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English capital letters and half-byte numerals and the “_” sign, with a file-extension of three charac- ters.) Level 2: The file name can have up to 31 characters (including the separation mark “.” and a file extension). Each folder contains less than 8 hierarchies. Extended formats Joliet: File names can have up to 64 characters. Romeo: File names can have up to 128 characters. m3u Playlists created using the “WINAMP” software have a playlist file extension (.m3u). MagicGate Data recorded on a “MagicGate Memory Stick (MG Memory Stick)” is encrypted using copy- right protection technology and can be mutually authenticated with “MG Memory Stick” compati- ble equipment. A “MG Memory Stick” can only be used to record and playback when there is verification between the “MG Memory Stick” and the compatible equipment. “MagicGate Memor y Stick” This is the name used for a “Memory Stick” that uses the “MagicGate” copyright protection tech- nology. This is an IC recording media for recording and playback of music and other data requiring copyright protection technology.
“Memor y Stick” This is a compact, light-weight IC recording medium. The “Memory Stick” is a regular “Memory Stick” without the copyright protection technology used in the “MagicGate Memory Stick.” The “Memory Stick” can be used to record image and audio data, etc. with “Memory Stick” compatible equipment. Different types of data can be recorded on a single “Memory Stick.” MP3 MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer3. It is an audio compression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Standards Organization). MP3 is able to com- press audio data to about 1/10th the level of a conventional disc. Multi-session Multi-session is a recording method that allows additional data to be recorded later. When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is treated as a single unit or session. Multi-session is a method of recording more than 2 sessions in one disc. Packet write This is a general term for a method of writing on CD-R, etc. at the time required for a file, just as is done with files on floppy or hard discs. SCMS SCMS is short for Serial Copy Management System. This is a serial copy management sys- tem developed to stop serial copying (copying of copies) of music, including copying of music recorded digitally from CDs etc. to a hard disk (music server). SDMI SDMI is short for Secure Digital Music Initiative. In order to develop a uniform system of copy- right protection technology that can be used around the world, more than about 130 compa- nies and organization representing the record- ing, computer and consumer electronics indus- tries have created a form. The objective is to prevent illegal use of music data and to pro- mote the development of legitimate music distri- bution services. The “MagicGate” copyright pro- tection technology is standard based on SDMI regulations. VBR VBR is short for Variable Bit Rate. Generally speaking CBR (Constant Bit Rate) is more widely used. But to flexibly adjust the bit rate according to the needs of audio compression, it is possible to achieve compression priorities sound quality. 80 ENGLISH ESPAÑOL DEUTSCH FRANÇAIS ITALIANO NEDERLANDS

Install the power box cord securely so that the cord can not be easily pulled out. Note: • This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding. Before installing it in a recre- ational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery voltage. • To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the ≠ battery cable before beginning installation. • Refer to the owner’s manual for details on con- necting the power amp and other units, then make connections correctly. • Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape around them where they lie against metal parts. • Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake, and seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insula- tion of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a dan- ger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle body. • Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into the engine compartment to connect to the battery. This will damage the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous short. • Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should. • Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating. • When replacing fuse, be sure to use only fuse of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder. • Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed, never wire so the speaker leads are directly grounded or the left and right ≠ speaker leads are common. • If the RCA pin jack on the unit will not be used, do not remove the caps attached to the end of the con- nector. • Speakers connected to this unit must be high- power types with minimum rating of 50 W and impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting speakers with output and/or impedance values other than those noted here may result in the speakers catch- ing fire, emitting smoke, or becoming damaged. • When this product’s source is switched ON, a con- trol signal is output through the blue/white lead. Connect to an external power amp’s system remote control or the car’s Auto-antenna relay control ter- minal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC). If the car features a glass antenna, connect to the antenna booster power supply terminal. • When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the blue/white lead to the amp’s power terminal. Likewise, do not connect the blue/white lead to the power terminal of the auto-antenna. Such connection could cause excessive current drain and malfunction. • To avoid short-circuiting, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. Especially, insulate the unused speaker leads without fail. There is a possi- bility of short-circuiting if the leads are not insulat- ed. • To prevent incorrect connection, the input side of the IP-BUS connector is blue, and the output side is black. Connect the connectors of the same colors correctly. • If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition switch, the red lead of the unit should be connected to a terminal coupled with ignition switch ON/OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery may be drained when you are away from the vehi- cle for several hours. (Fig. 1) Fig. 1 • The black lead is ground. Please ground this lead separately from the ground of high-current prod- ucts such as power amps.
