Display Features
Display Priority: You can set
the unit to a source display or time display priority. When set to source
display priority, the radio tuner frequency, CD track/elapsed time, selected
MP3/WMA information, or Aux display will be displayed by default. The clock can
be accessed temporarily when the Display button is pressed. When the time
display priority, the clock is displayed by default, while the source
information can be accessed temporarily with the Display button.
12/24 Hour Clock: When the
unit's radio tuning interval is set to USA spacing, the clock is displayed in a
12-hour format. If the unit is switched to European frequency spacing, the clock
switches to a 24-hour format.
Clock Display Note: Normally,
the display illuminates only when the unit is on. You can program it so the
clock is displayed when the unit is off. In this case, the clock display is
"keyed", and will turn on and off as the ignition key is turned on and off.
Audio Section
Preset EQ Curves: You can
choose from five preset curves: Pop, Jazz, Classic, Beat and Rock. Any
adjustment to the bass or treble settings automatically cancels the current EQ
curve.
Source Audio Memory: Individual
bass and treble settings are retained in memory for AM, FM, CD, and AUX
modes.
Turn-on Volume: You can preset
the unit's volume when it is powered on. Each time the unit is turned on, the
