Auto EQ (auto-equalizing)

The auto-equalizer automatically measures
the car

’s interior acoustic characteristics, and

then creates an auto-equalizer curve based on
that information.
! To perform this function, dedicated micro-

phone (e.g. CD-MC20) is required.

WARNING

As a loud tone (noise) may be emitted from the
speakers when measuring the car's interior
acoustic characteristics, never perform auto TA
or auto EQ while driving.

CAUTION

! Thoroughly check the conditions before per-

forming auto EQ as the speakers may be da-
maged if these functions are performed when:
— The speakers are incorrectly connected.

(For example, when a rear speaker is con-
nected as a subwoofer output.)

— A speaker is connected to a power amp de-

livering output higher than the speaker

’s

maximum input power capability.

! If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable

position the measurement tone may become
loud and measurement may take a long time,
resulting in battery drainage. Be sure to place
the microphone in the specified location.

Before operating the auto EQ function

! Carry out auto EQ in as quiet a place as

possible, with the car engine and air condi-
tioning switched off. Also cut power to car
phones or portable telephones in the car, or
remove them from the car before carrying
out auto EQ. Sounds other than the mea-
surement tone (surrounding sounds, en-
gine sound, telephones ringing etc.) may
prevent correct measurement of the car in-
terior acoustic characteristics.
