Pairing with a smartphone via Bluetooth
Press MODE (3) on the head unit to select BT PHONE mode. Activate Bluetooth in
your smartphone and find “CAR AUDIO” in the list of devices available for
connection. Enter the password “8888” and click OK. After successful pairing,
the display will show BT ON and the Bluetooth logo will stop flashing.
Note: Support of HSP, HFP, A20 P and AVRCP Bluetooth profilemay vary
depending on the mobile device being connected.
Hands-free mode
When a call comes in, the head unit automatically switches to hands-free mode,
the calling phone number is displayed on the screen. To accept the call, press
the BAND button (7). During a conversation, the microphone built into the
front panel of the head unit is used. To end the conversation or reject an
incoming call, press the MUTE button (18).
A short press of the BAND button (7) interrupts the Bluetooth connection so
that you can turn off the hands-free mode and resume the conversation as
usual. To reconnect, press the BAND button (7) again.
Playing music from a Bluetooth-connected smartphone
Press the MODE (3) button to select BT source. In this case, the music playing
on the connected smartphone will start playing through the car audio system.
You can switch between tracks directly from the head unit using the NEXT (8)
or PREV (9) buttons. Use the PLAY / PAUSE button (11) to temporarily pause and
resume playback.
A long press of the BAND button (7) interrupts the Bluetooth connection, the
device switches to playback from another source. To reconnect, press and hold
the BAND button (7). Switch to BT mode to continue playing from your
smartphone.
AUX IN mode
You can connect any third-party audio source (player, smartphone, tablet,
etc.) with a headphone output to the head unit. To do this, use a mini-jack
3.5mm adapter (purchased separately) by inserting it into the AUX input on the
front panel.
To listen to music from an external source through the car audio system, press
the MODE button (3) until the head unit enters the AUX mode.
Note:
Adjust the volume of the connected source so that the overall volume of the
audio system in AUX mode roughly matches the volume of other sources, such as
a USB flash drive or radio tuner. To quickly adjust the volume, use the knob
(2) on the head unit.
- When connecting the speakers, do not short-circuit the wires to the vehicle ground, to the +12 V power wire, or to each other.
- The yellow wire must be connected to a wire that has a constant voltage of +12 Volts even with the ignition off. If you do not find such a wire, connect to the positive terminal of the battery after the fuse box.
- The black wire of the unit can be connected to a grounded metal part of the vehicle. If you cannot find a suitable bolt or screw, contact your nearest vehicle dealer for assistance. To ensure reliable contact, remove paint and dirt from the areas of the surface that the wire is in contact with.
- The blue wire is used to power the active antenna or control the switching on of the connected amplifier (remote control signal).
Changing the sensitivity of the radio tuner
By pressing the LOC / DX button (19) you can change the operating mode of the
radio tuner. LOCAL mode is useful if you live in a large city with a lot of
radio interference. This mode reduces the tuner’s sensitivity to interference,
but only local radio stations with a strong signal remain. DX mode increases
the sensitivity and is designed to receive stations that have a weak signal.
It is better to turn it on in small cities with a small amount of radio
interference and when driving on a highway.
Selecting the frequency grid of the radio tuner
Depending on the country, the tuning step of the radio frequency (broadcast
grid) may differ. By default, the step of the Russian/European standard is
set, but if there is a need to change, this can be done by switching the
device to radio mode, and then pressing and holding the knob (2). In the menu
that opens, rotate the knob to select AREA USA (American broadcasting grid) or
AREA EUR (European/Russian broadcasting grid). After a few seconds, the tuner
will exit this mode automatically, the selected radio tuner standard will be
saved.

Press the AMS (10) button and hold it for a few seconds. The tuner will
automatically scan the current band and store the stations with the stronge st
signal in the memory of the device, replacing the previously stored ones.
After automatically filling the memory, the tuner will automatically enter the
mode of scanning the stored radio stations so that you can choose the one you
like the most.
Program Scanning
Press the AMS (10) button shortly to scan preset stations. During scanning,
the tuner will tune in sequentially to the stored radio stations and stop at
each station for a few seconds. During this process, stations with poor

from the radio transmitter, in dense urban areas or strong radio
interference), listening can be improve by switching to Mono mode.
