A cut in sound output may indicate impro-
per setting of the gain control. To ensure
continuous sound output with the head
unit at a high volume, set amplifier gain
control to a level appropriate for the precut
maximum output level of the head unit. so
that volume can remain unchanged and to
control excess output.
•
Despite correct volume and gain settings,
the unit sound still cuts out periodically.
In
such cases, please contact the nearest
authorized Pioneer Service Station.
