Listening over the vehicle’s speakers
The product uses a wireless FM transmitter to send audio through the vehicle’s
speakers.
The external FM modulator frequencies are FM 87.7, 87.9, 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7,
88.9, 106.7, 107.1 and 107.5.
Using the external wireless IR headset
A separately sold wireless IR headset is required for utilizing the IR transmitter
function.
A dual channel wireless IR headset has a two-position slide switch labeled “A/B”.
When the switch is in the “A” position, the headset plays audio from the source
designated as “IR A.” When the switch is in the “B” position, the headset plays
audio from the source designated as “IR B.”
To listen over your speakers:
1. Make sure mute is off. Select FM mode on the screen, and then select a FM
frequency as described below.
2. Turn on the car radio. Tune to the FM frequency displayed on the screen, such
as FM 88.1.
3. If no audio is heard, try changing the FM transmitter frequency and re-tuning
the radio to the new frequency.
The product saves the frequency you select, and returns to it each time the
product is turned on. You may want to store the FM transmitter frequency as a
preset of your radio for ease of use.
Note: If there seems to be a strong station on the FM transmitter frequency, and you
are hearing a radio station mixed in with the system audio, change the FM transmitter
frequency. Avoid frequencies used by local radio stations.
