Display Features
2-DIN Chassis: The Clarion DUZ385SAT has a 2-DIN chassis (also known
as "Double DIN" or size DD), and will fit in many vehicles with a large dash
opening. The Double-Din head unit features an AM/FM tuner, CD player, Changer
controls, Satellite Radio input, a rear-panel USB port and a front panel AUX
input along two sets of 2V preamp outputs. The unit can be ISO-mounted
using your vehicle's factory brackets and the unit's supplied hardware. As
always, please check the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector to verify fit with your
vehicle.
Digital LCD Display: The high visibility, 2-line LCD
display, with black
background and white characters, on the DUZ385SAT allows numbers and characters
to be displayed clearly in all lighting conditions. You can adjust the display
contrast to match the angle of installation of this unit between 1 to 16.
Illumination Dimmer: The
receiver's display automatically dims to a preset brightness when the vehicle's
headlights are turned on. The wiring harness includes an orange/white lead that
should be connected to the vehicle's parking light circuit in order for the
dimmer feature to operate.
Screen Saver: This unit is provided with a Screen Saver function which
allows you to show various kinds of patterns and characters in the operation
status indication area of the display in a random order. You can turn this
function on or off. If the button operation is performed with the screen saver
function on, the operation display corresponding to the button operation is
shown for about 30 seconds and the display returns to the screen saver display.
Message Information: A message up to 30 characters long can be stored
in memory and displayed as a type of screen saver.
Anti-Theft System: Since the DUZ385SAT does not have detachable face,
this unit features Clarion's Anti-Theft System (CATS). CATS allows you to create
a 4-digit code that must be entered to operate the unit if it is ever
disconnected from your vehicle's battery.
Audio Section
Two 2-Volt Preamp Outputs: The DUZ385SAT is equipped with a
pair of 2-volt front and rear preamp outputs. You can fade between the front and
rear preamp outputs. The rear preamp output is not switchable to a subwoofer
output.
Z-Enhancer Plus: Z-Enhancer Plus features five equalization
selections (B-Boost, Impact, Exite, Z+Flat and Custom). Along with 2 bands of parametric
equalization, the Z-Enhancer Plus circuitry enables sound adjustments with more
flexibility than the basic Bass and Treble tone controls.
- B-Boost: Bass is emphasized from -3 to +3.
- Impact: Bass and treble are emphasized from -3 to +3.
- Excite: Bass, treble and midrange are emphasized from -3 to +3.
- Z+Flat: Bass and treble settings are set to flat.
- Custom: Adjusts the bass and treble independently from -7 to +7.
You can set the effected bass frequency to 60, 80, 100, or 200 Hz and the
Q-factor to 1, 1.25, 1.5 or 2.0. The effected treble frequency can be set to
10k, 12.5k, 15k, or 17.5k.
Magna Bass EX (Extend): The Magna Bass Extend feature does not adjust
the low frequencies like the normal sound adjustment function, but emphasizes
the deep bass frequencies to provide you with a dynamic sound. The Magna Bass EX
circuit boosts bass at 50Hz. This creates a rich, deep, defined bass rather than
the muddy, booming bass of a standard loudness control. The Magna Bass EX boost
levels are dependent on the system volume, which results in balanced system
response and dynamic bass reproduction

play MP3 and WMA files recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW discs using ISO9660 Level 1

turned to the "on" or "acc" position.
Top Function: The Top Function resets the CD player to the first track
of a CD-audio disc. In the case of an MP3/WMA/AAC disc, the first track of a
folder being played will be reset.

seconds of all the tracks recorded on a CD or the first 10 seconds of the first
track of all the folders on an MP3/WMA disc.
Last Position Memory: If you turn off the unit while a disc
is playing, it will resume playback at the stopping point when it is turned on
again.
Auto Reload:
