(b) 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 mixes of treble,
mid−range, 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.
Touching the “SOUND” switch displayed
on the screen at the audio control mode
will display the sound control mode. Ad-
just the tone and balance as follows.
To adjust the tone, touch the “+” or “”
switch on the screen. To adjust the bal-
ance between the front and rear speakers,
touch the “FRONT” or “REAR” switch on
the screen, and to adjust the balance be-
tween the left and right, touch the “L” or
“R” switch on the screen.
“BASS”: Adjusts low −pitched tones.
“MID”: Adjusts mid− pitched tones.
“TREB”: Adjusts high− pitched tones.
As the yellow display goes up, each tone is
more emphasized. (c) Sound adjusting function
(convertible with 7 speakers)
The audio system automatically adjusts the
sound to the suitable tone according to the
convertible top condition.
When the tone level is adjusted, audio will be
disrupted momentarily.

(d) Your compact disc player
When
you insert a compact disc, insert it with
the label side up. The compact disc player will
play from track 1 through to the end of the
disc. Then it will play from track 1 again.
NOTICE
Never try to disassemble or oil any part
of the compact disc player. Do not in-
sert anything other than compact discs
into the slot.
The player is intended for use with 12 cm (4.7
in.) discs only.
— Radio operation
(a) Listening to the radio
Push these buttons to choose either an
AM or FM station.
“AM”, “FM1” or “FM2” appears on the screen.
If your vehicle is equipped with a satellite
radio broadcast system, when you push
the “AM·SAT” button, “AM”, “SAT1”, “SAT2”
or “SAT3” station appears on the display. For
details about satellite radio broadcast, see
“— Radio operation (XM satellite radio broad-
cast)” on page 123.
Turn the knob clockwise to step up the sta-
tion band or counterclockwise to step
down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the
amount of channel separation to prevent the
weak signal from creating noise. If the signal
becomes extremely weak, the radio switches
from stereo to mono reception. In this case,
“ST” disappears from the screen.
