Control Setup & Reset
By default, RetroSound® Radio Motors are configured to function with standard Radio Faces like the Detroit but can be configured to function with other RetroSound Radio Faces with alternate control layouts. If you have mistakenly changed your Radio Motor to use an alternate control layout, follow the steps below to reboot and change control modes back to the default settings. With the vehicle’s ignition on, press and hold the Left-Front Knob(1) for approximately 15 seconds to reboot the radio into the SEL PANEL menu. Once in the SEL PANEL menu, press and release the power button until the correct panel/control mode is displayed (select “Normal” for standard 2-shaft/push- button controls). Let the unit time out to accept the changes. The display will flash five times and reboot with the selected control mode activated.
