READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE USE AND RETAIN IT FOR LATER REFERENCE!
WARNINGS

  • Before starting to use the player, read these instructions carefully, then keep them in an accessible place for future reference.
  • Seek professional assistance if necessary to prevent damaging the unit or motor vehicle!
  • The operation of the device may be affected by software and hardware that are independent of the manufacturer.
  • Occasionally, some characters may not display properly or at all. This can mainly affect special or accented characters and is not the fault of the device.
  • The BT range for this product is about 5-10 meters in free space. Under other conditions, this information may change.
  • Depending on the compressed files, the MP3 compression program used, and the quality of the USB/microSD memory, anomalies may occur during playback, which is not due to the unit malfunctioning.
  • The playback of copy-righted DRM files is not guaranteed!
  • It is also possible to connect MP3/MP4/MP5 players using a USB cable but avoid connecting external hard drives this way!
  • Do not store any additional files on the USB/microSD device other than playable files, because they can slow down or interfere with playback.
  • Do not store data storage in the vehicle if it is exposed to freezing or extremely high temperatures!
  • While underway, do not do anything that distracts your attention from driving. Handling the player while driving can result in accidents.
  • Do not listen to the player too loud. Set a volume that allows you to hear external sounds while driving.
  • Extreme volumes can also cause permanent damage to your ears!
  • Do not disassemble or remake the player, as that can cause fire, accidents, or electric shock.
  • Incorrect use or installation renders the warranty void.
  • Only for use in cars with a 12 V battery and a negative ground. Using the player for any other purpose can result in electric shock, damage, or fire.
  • The player was designed exclusively for use in vehicles!
  • Always use melting fuses with the proper values.
  • When replacing a fuse, make sure that the new fuse has the same nominal value as the one you are replacing. Using a different fuse can cause fire or damage. (15 Ampere)

  • If a memory location is already occupied, its contents will be deleted and the new station frequency will be stored.
  • In the case of receivers of suitable quality, an ST text symbol appears on the screen and the STEREO (double circle) symbol lights up. If reception is noisy due to poor reception conditions, select MONO by tapping the STEREO icon on the bottom line. The ST text and the STEREO symbol go off.
  • In case of low reception conditions, turn off the LOC (local, strong reception) function by tapping the DX / LOC (distance, local reception) button. Reception may be weaker nearby high buildings or electrical equipment.
  • If you use the device at a distance further from the location of the tuning – eg. when traveling – you may have to search for the same radio station again at another frequency. In different geographic areas broadcasts the same programs at different frequencies! This inconvenience can be avoided if the listened station has an RDS function and you turn on the RDS AF (alternative frequency) feature on your device. For details, refer to the RDS functions below.

SELECTION OF STORED RADIO STATIONS
With BAND (or on the front panel the BND) button select the desired band (pl. FM1), then by tapping 1-6 storage number buttons choose the desired track. Altogether 18 FM and 12 AM radio stations are memorizable. At the touchscreen’s top line, the storage buttons contain the frequencies which are stored already.
FM RDS FUNCTIONS
The Radio Data System is used to transmit digital information during FM radio broadcasts. This textual information will be displayed on radio displays if the broadcasting station and the receiver unit have this RDS function and it has been activated. Such information includes for example the name of the radio station, the program type, etc., which varies depending on the station and radio. Apart from the display of textual information extra services are also generally available. They include the following in case of this radio:

  • PS – program service: displays the radio station’s brief name. Operates continuously as a basic RDS function.
  • AF – alternate frequency: if the current station can be received on another frequency in better quality, the unit automatically switches over to that frequency; this is useful when traveling because the unit searches for a station broadcasting the same program with a stronger signal
  • TP – Radio stations displaying TP marking, regularly broadcast traffic information. Operates continuously as basic RDS function.
  • TA – the active TA function allows traffic and road information announcements to be heard. When an announcement is received the text TRAFFIC will appear on the display. If music or a movie is being played back from a USB/microSD or Bluetooth source, it will pause during the announcement then playback will continue.
  • PTY – program type: radio station identification according to the predefined genre. It is possible to search for broadcast with specific content, for example news, classical music, pop music…
  • EON –device continuously monitors other networks for traffic information. (currently unavailable for this device)

SWITCHING ON AND OFF FM RDS FUNCTIONS
The PS and TP services will always work when the radio station provides this. Other RDS functions can be switched on or off individually with the remote control’s AF, TA, PTY buttons. Indications of currently active functions are visible on the display.
Occasionally, you may find that certain characters appear incorrectly or not at all. This is mainly affected on the special or accented characters and not the fault of the device.

PLAYBACK – FROM USB/MICROSD STORAGE
If you wish to listen to music from a USB/MicroSD/TF source instead of listening to the radio, simply connect to the external storage. The unit will detect this and start playback automatically. The file name, track number, total time and elapsed time of song, the total number of tracks, name of artist, and title of the song will appear on the display. Information connecting to the track can be displayed only when played file includes them. In addition play mode: repeated, random, or repeating all tracks or repeating current track is visible on the screen as well. The desired feature can be set with the two touch buttons on the right edge of the bottom line.In this line, the first button displays the playlist, which you can switch to any song by tapping it twice.

  •  playback or pause
  • Press the buttons briefly to reach the previous or next track or keep holding them for a quick search
  • The recommended file system of memory is: FAT32. Do not use a memory unit with NTFS format!
  •  If the unit does not emit sound or the USB / MicroSD/TF memory is not recognized, remove and reinsert the memory. If this is ineffective, try to choose the source with the MODE button. If necessary, turn off and back on and ultimately push the reset button under the cover!
  • If the unit cannot recognize the files or one part of them, copied on the external storage, then proceed as described in the previous paragraph, or you can insert the USB unit to the device which is already switched on; at that time the system will read in and update the entire content of it.
  • Remove the storage only, when you switched to a source different from USB/MicroSD/TF memory or the device has switched off! Otherwise the data can get injured.
  • It is forbidden to remove the connected external storage during playback!
  • By inserting the memory unit, playback will start from the first track. If you have listened to it previously, and it hasn’t been removed, then the playback will continue from the last played track, even if the device has been switched off in the meantime…
  •  USB units can be pulled out simply, microSD/TF cards can be removed after pushing them in. This latter one should be pushed firmly when inserting. In case of proper connection, the card doesn’t extend from the device (behind the front panel).
  • USB and MicroSD units can be inserted only in one way. If it would get stuck, turn it over and try again, do not force!
  • Pay attention to the storage, extending from the device not to disturb you in safe driving, and do not shove or break it! It is recommended to use a microSD card preferably since it can be used more safely.
  • If you leave the external storage in the vehicle in extreme hot or cold, it can get injured.
  •  Unique features of the external storage can cause abnormal operation, this is not a malfunction of the unit!
  • Occasionally, you may find that certain characters appear incorrectly or not at all. This is mainly affected on the special or accented characters and not the fault of the device.

PHOTO AND VIDEO DISPLAY FROM USB/MICROSD STORAGE
The unit is capable of playing the most popular image and video files from an external storage device. A list of supported file types is included later in this user manual.
