TONE AND BALANCE
For details about your system’s tone and
balance controls, see the description of
your own system.
Type 1 and type 2 audio systems utilize
FOCUS and TruBass audio enhance-
ment technologies, under license from
SRS Labs, Inc., in all mode except AM
radio mode.
Tone
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange, and bass levels. In
fact, different kinds of music and vocal
programs usually sound better with differ-
ent mixes of treble, midrange (type 3
only) and bass.
Balance
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another. YOUR RADIO ANTENNA
Your vehicle has an antenna printed on
the inside of the rear window.
NOTICE
Attaching the film (especially conduc-
tive or metallic type) on the rear win-
dow will noticeably reduce the sensi-
tivity of the radio.
YOUR AUDIO DISPLAY
The audio information is displayed on the
center display.
