1. Apply power and turn up the throttle to hear the sound system come on.
2. Within five seconds of powering up, turn on the bell by flipping the
direction switch back and forth quickly three times.

programming will time out. You will need to start again by shutting off and
reapplying track power.
Once you perform the three bell operations after applying power, the bell will shut off, the
lights will flash, and you will hear "Enter Programming". After you enter programming
mode, you will hear an announcement of the first programming option, "System Volume".
3. To access other options, simply slide the direction switch to the opposite
position and leave it there. Listen as each option number is announced in
order. Refer to Figure 1 on page 10.
4. Slide the switch back when you wish to stop at a particular option.
After you stop at an option you will hear the option's name announced. When you are

option by flipping the direction switch back and forth once.
Upon entering an option, you will hear the current setting for that option. For unused
options, you will hear "Reserved". For any volume option, you will hear "Volume equals X"
(where "X" is its present level setting). After a moment, you will hear the sound playing at
