Audio Adjustments

Using the equalizer

The equalizer lets you adjust the equalization
to match car interior acoustic characteristics
as desired.

Recalling equalizer curves

There are seven stored equalizer curves which
you can easily recall at any time. Here is a list
of the equalizer curves:
Display Equalizer curve
Powerful Powerful
Natural Natural
Vocal Vocal
Flat
Flat
Custom1
Custom 1
Custom2 Custom 2
Super Bass Super bass
! Custom1 and Custom2 are adjusted equal-
izer curves that you create. Adjustments
can be made with a 16-band graphic equal-
izer.
! When Flat is selected no supplement or
correction is made to the sound. This is
useful to check the effect of the equalizer
curves by switching alternatively between
Flat and a set equalizer curve.

gree (nuance control).

For Custom1 and Custom2 equalizer curves,
you can adjust the level of each band.
! A separate Custom1 curve can be created
for each source. (The built-in CD player and
the multi-CD player are set to the same
equalizer adjustment setting automati-
cally.) If you make adjustments when a
curve other than Custom2 is selected, the
equalizer curve settings will be memorized
in Custom1.
! A Custom2 curve can be created common
to all sources. If you make adjustments
when the Custom2 curve is selected, the
Custom2 curve will be updated.
