First, I want to say that I am not a technical genius or electrician and my craft skills which are the most not consider here.
Delivery and packaging:
The package came as Amazon accustomed quickly. The radio itself was good and securely packaged. It comes with the radio adapter cable, a remote control and a sheath for the remote control or the radio panel. Also a thick German manual was printed, what is no longer necessarily used today. Visually, the radio a great impression.
Installation:
The installation is not really complicated. Man pulls out the old radio, sets the framework of the new radio a. Then you look at the wiring harness. Sitting ignition current and continuous current right? Fits the antenna cable? For the latter I bought an adapter for 3 at the car accessories business. Otherwise, you can still connect the brown wire from radio to ground and the handbrake (accurate circuit plan is in the manual) and you're done. Then you need only insert the radio. Thus it is necessary due to the numerous cable somewhat fumble but went relatively quickly with me. It lends itself naturally to the radio before sliding to test once in his hand a pinch there are even instructions for installation on Youtube.
Function:
The radio worked right away properly. The radio goes off smoothly. The stations were set quickly and basically everything is self-explanatory. I was really impressed with how well the touch panel reacts. Then have a DVD directly tested the complete works with DVD menu, etc.. The SD card is recognized immediately and the radio is great. In general, the sound is better than the old no-name machine which I had installed. The image in the video is the way not to be despised.
Suggestions for improvement:
Everything is a bit unfortunate, the fact is that the sound settings of the EQ can not be made at current songs. In the Sound menu, the music shuts off. But this is not worth minus Stern, since one only once sets the sound and then maintains.
Now to the most important point, errors in other reviews:
1. The radio does not save radio channels: Meins, the comically. Here continuous current and ignition current was probably clamped upside down. Is even in the instructions that you must reposition here depending on the vehicle model.
2. settings and the last played song will not be saved: as with the radio stations, the two power supplies were clamped incorrectly. The radio can go on like any other after restarting at the point in the song where it was when switched off.
3. screen does not move when you turn off completely: When you first turn the display in the inclined angle stops. Now you can adjust the angle under settings to achieve. If you have connected correctly, the position after switching off the radio even know,
4. Video is not shown, only sound: the brown radio cables are attached to the handbrake As I said must at power. Is this Attracted also comes an image. This is to prevent you watching movies while driving. Alternatively kan lay the cable also connected to ground, then the look while driving is nevertheless prohibited.
I am so far so absolutely satisfied with the device. One should just read, since the manual eigentlch exactly is why what happens. To wear I can not say after such a short time of course. If an error occurs here, I'll update the review.
