ABOUT THIS CHAPTER
This chapter describes how to operate and use the audio and video sources. In addition, optional
equipment or features of the vehicle are described that may not be included as standard in your
vehicle. These are not identified for each and every individual case. Therefore equipment or features
will be described that may not be in your ZENEC system or vehicle. More information can be
obtained from your authorized ZENEC dealer.
CAUTION
Only operate the audio playback or radio while driving when the traffic situation allows.
CAUTION
Changing or connecting an audio source can lead to sudden fluctuations in the volume level.
This should be borne in mind before changing or connecting an audio source.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
If the driver of the vehicle is distracted, this may lead to an accident or injury. Operating the
ZENEC system can distract attention from the general traffic situation! Equally, connecting,
changing or inserting data media can distract the driver from the general traffic situation.
CAUTION
Always choose loudspeaker settings such that acoustic signals coming from outside can always
be heard in the vehicle (e.g. signal horns or sirens).
CAUTION
According to the law, the operation of the video playback while driving is not permitted. For this
reason, the picture switches off as soon as the vehicle moves.
CAUTION
The connection and charging leads of external mobile devices can get in the way of the driver.
Please run these so that the driver's freedom of movement is not hindered.
CAUTION
A volume level that is set too high can damage the hearing. This is also true when the volume
level is very high just for a short time.
NOTE
A compatibility overview of useful devices together with memory sizes and formats can be found
at www.zenec.com.

Radio bands
The ZENEC system enables you to receive radio stations via FM, AM or DAB+. The reception of
the individual radio bands is dependent on the position of the antenna in your vehicle. Thus not all
vehicles from the factory come with antennas designed for digital radio reception. If your vehicle
antenna is not DAB capable, contact your ZENEC dealer for a retrofit.

Here you have the option of adjusting the sound profile optimally to your vehicle. The setting options
described in this section for parametric equalizing, crossover setting, and time delay correction have
great influence on the sound in your vehicle. To achieve an improvement in the acoustic playback by
using the correct settings presumes a certain amount of background knowledge. If you do not have
background knowledge about digital signal processors, gain settings, time delay differences, and
Q-factors, you should perhaps avoid making settings yourself. Instead make use of the vehicle presets
to quickly and easily find a suitable standard setting for your vehicle.
