7. Упутство за употребу

7.1 Почетно подешавање

1. Turn on your head unit and the ATEQ PK2.
2. Set all equalizer controls (SUB BASS, MID BASS, MID, TREBLE) to their center (flat) position.
3. Adjust the Master Volume (VOL) to a low level.
4. Select the desired input source using the INPUT switch on the front panel or the INPUT LEVEL switch on the top panel.

7.2 Adjusting Audio

• Master Volume (VOL): Користите ово за контролу укупне јачине система.
• Subwoofer Level (SUB): Adjust this to balance the subwoofer output with the main speakers.
• Fader (FADER): Use this to adjust the balance between front and rear speakers.
• Изједначење: Use the SUB BASS, MID BASS, MID, and TREBLE controls to fine-tune the audio frequencies to your preference. Make small adjustments and listen to the effect.
• Подешавања скретнице: Adjust the SUBWOOFER and FRONT/REAR crossover switches on the top panel to optimize frequency distribution to your amplifiers and speakers. For subwoofers, select a low-pass frequency (e.g., 80Hz). For full-range speakers, select a high-pass frequency (e.g., 80Hz or 120Hz) to prevent them from playing low frequencies handled by the subwoofer.

8. Одржавање

• Одржавајте јединицу чистом тако што ћете је брисати меком, сувом крпом.
