the audio volume automatically in-
creases to match the vehicle speed, in order to create a pleasant listening
environment even as the driving noiseincreases..
For type A audio, SRS CS Auto is
equipped. SRS CS Auto creates a 5.1ch
equivalent surround field using 4
speakers that are installed in thevehicle.. For type B audio, SRS TruBass and
FOCUS are equipped.. SRS Sound features:
(1) Sound originating from door
mount speakers can be heard at
ear level (built in SRS FOCUS effect)
(type B audio).
(2) Ultra rich bass sound can be
obtained from standard door mount
speakers (built in SRS TruBass
effect) (type B audio).
(3) Surround sound can be ob-
tained from 2-channel stereo
sources such as CD, MP3 and FM
(built in SRS Circle Surround II
effect) (type A audio).
(4) SRS CS Auto can position the
center channel image in the center
of the vehicle ’s windshield. This
eliminates the need for a center
speaker (built in SRS Circle Sur-
round II phantom center and SRS
FOCUS effects) (type A audio).

®Technology (Digi-
tal AM and FM Radio) (type C audio)
! HD Radio Technology Information
! What is HD Radio
®Technology and
how does it work?
HD Radio
TMTechnology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
radio product has a special receiver which
allows it to receive digital broadcasts
(where available) in addition to the analog
broadcasts it already receives. Digital
broadcasts have better sound quality than
analog broadcasts as digital broadcasts
provide free, crystal clear audio with no static or distortion. For more information,
and a guide to available radio stations and
programming, please visit www.hdradio.com. !
Using HD Radio
®Technology
As a consumer works through the analog
radio stations, (where applicable) the radio
receiver will automatically tune from an
analog signal to a digital signal within five
seconds. An orange
logo indicator will
be seen on the screen when in digital. NOTE The
logo will first appear in a gray
color indicating the station is indeed
(an analog and) a digital station. Once
the digital signal is acquired, the logo
will be a bright orange color. ! Benefits of HD Radio
®Technology
1.
Information: The song title, artist name
and music genre will appear on the screen
when available by the radio station. 2.
Multicast: On the FM radio frequency
most digital stations have “multiple ”or
supplemental programs on one FM sta-
tion. When the consumer pushes the
multicast button, they will move between
the multiple unique program content. 3.
Clear Reception: Unlike analog radio
signals, digital signals do not pass along static, hiss or pops. !
HD Radio
®Technology Trouble-
shooting
1.
Station blending: When acquiring a
radio station, as usual, the radio will play
content in analog. If the radio verifies the
broadcast is an HD Radio Technology
station, it will then shift or blend smoothly
to a digital signal within five seconds.
Depending on the station quality, the
consumer may hear a slight sound change
when the station switches from the analog
to digital signal. 2.
Reception area: Topography of the
earth can affect radio signals. For exam-
ple, when a vehicle is behind a hill or large
building from the radio tower location
analog reception will be poor and it is
highly likely that HD Radio reception will
not occur. When a consumer is on the
multicast or supplemental programming
(HD2/HD3/HD4) and the reception is
weak or lost, this will result in a “mute ”
condition. On the main or HD1 program, a
weak or lost digital signal will result in the
playing of an analog signal until a digital
signal is available. 3.
Station issues: In order to provide the
best experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any radio station
issues found while listening to a broad- Audio

NOTE
Depending on the broadcasting area,
the digital signal may not be received in
an area where the analog signal can be
properly received, or the system fre-
quently switches the channels between
the digital and analog signals. How-
ever, this does not indicate a malfunc-
tion. If this frequent switching between
digital and analog causes annoyance,
set the radio to the analog mode (HD
Radio off mode) that provides the same
radio broadcasting quality as a con- ventional radio. !
