front panel. Certain functions, such as adjust-
ing the volume, changing radio stations or
tracks on a CD, etc, can also be controlled with
the steering wheel-mounted keypad.
The audio system is available in two versions:HU-650Features: AM/FM radio, single-disc CD player,
4×25W output, six
1 speakers.
HU-850Features: AM/FM radio, integrated 6-disc CD
changer, 4×50W or 4×70W output plus 25W
Dolby Pro Logic II, eleven speakers.Compact disc care•
Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a
soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the
center outwards. If necessary, dampen the
cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thor-
oughly before using.
•
Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liq-
uid. Use only cleaners specifically made for
CDs.
•
Use discs of the correct size only (3.5"
discs should never be used).
•
The discs should conform to the norms
EN60908 (IEC60908). CDR discs cancause listening problems due to the quality
of the disc or recording equipment used.
•
Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
•
Volvo does not recommend the use of
plastic outer rings on the disc.
•
Condensation may occur on discs/optical
components of the changer in cold winter
weather. The disc can be dried with a
clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components
in the CD changer may, however, take up
to one hour to dry off.
•
Never attempt to play a disc which is dam-
aged in any way.
•
When not in use, the discs should be
stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs
in excessive heat, direct sunlight or dusty
locations.

tics, the seating position of the listener, etc., for

There is also dynamic calibration that takes
into account the setting of the volume control,radio reception, and the vehicle's speed. The

RBDS functions HU-650/HU-850
10``223 Radio Broadcast Data System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in your
area, functions only with FM broadcasts. The
radio in your vehicle is equipped with an
advanced system allowing information from
broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as
text, together with the audio signal. This infor-
mation is then decoded by the radio and made
available for several new and unique features.
The RBDS or Radio Broadcast Data System
operates in the FM band only, and the infor-
mation transmitted is supplied exclusively by
participating broadcasters. Volvo has no con-
trol over the accuracy of the data or informa-
tion.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited
at this time, but as the technology and benefits
grow, you will find the radio in your vehicle is
equipped to take advantage of this system.PI (Program Information) Seek:When an FM station has been stored as a pre-
set, the radio also stores RBDS program infor-
mation if it is available. When the preset is
selected at a later time, the radio tries to access
updated program information. In weak signal
areas, there may be a delay before the station
becomes audible. During this delay, "PI seek"
will be displayed and there will be no sound.
PI seek can be interrupted by pressing EXIT.

information, which can be shown in the display.
The text will be shown twice in the display.To start this function:Press the FM button for several seconds.To deactivate this function:Press FM briefly.
