Tone and balance
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 different levels of treble, mi-
drange, and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound lev-
els is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a ste-
reo recording or broadcast, changing the
right/left balance will increase the volume of
one group of sounds while decreasing the vol-
ume of another.
1. Touching “SOUND” displays the
sound adjustment screen.
2. Touch the desired button.
“TREB” “+” or “–”: Adjusts high−pitched
tones.
“MID” “+” or “–”: Adjusts mid−pitched
tones.
“BASS” “+” or “–”: Adjusts low−pitched
tones.
“FRONT” or “REAR”: Adjusts sound bal-
ance between the front and rear speakers.
“L” or “R”: Adjusts sound balance between
the left and right speakers.
3. Touch “OK”.
The tone of each mode (for such as AM, FM1
and CD changer) can be adjusted.
Automatic sound levelizer (ASL)
When the audio sound becomes difficult to be
heard due to road noise, wind noise or other
noises while driving, the system adjusts to the
optimum volume according to the noise level.
To turn this function on, touch “ASL” on the
audio control screen.
