Front, Rear and Non-Fading Preamp Outputs: This unit includes gold-plated 4.0-volt front, 2.0-volt rear and 4.0-volt non-fading RCA preamp outputs. The non-fading outputs are typically used to feed a subwoofer amplifier. The non-fading output level is adjustable from -6 to +6.

Auxiliary Input: Stereo RCA preamp inputs are hardwired to the back of the unit on a 4" lead, allowing you to connect a portable audio source. Just connect your portable cassette, MD or MP3 player to this unit, and you can listen to the audio from the portable player through the speakers in your mobile audio system. The Aux input sensitivity is adjustable and can be set to "Sens High", "Sens Mid", or "Sens Low".

Cellular Mute Lead: This unit is equipped with a lead that will mute the audio output when it receives a muting signal from a cellular phone equipped with a muting output. When a cellular call is received, a signal sent from the phone to the muting lead causes the unit to mute the audio output, then, once the call is over, the audio level is automatically restored. To use this feature, you must have a cellular phone with a muting output that can be connected to the muting input wire (brown wire) of this unit.

When the illumination wire of this unit receives power and the dimmer feature has been turned on, the display will dim to a preset level. Note: When the power and constant wires are connected and the illumination wire is supplied with voltage (when you turn your lights on), the button illumination remains on even if the unit is turned off completely.
