Wired FM Modulator (optional)

Your video system may be equipped with an RF

modulator, that allows you to listen to the VOH701’s

audio signal by tuning your vehicle’s radio to the

selected frequency, (88.7 or 89.1 - Check with your

installer) and turning on the remote mounted RF

modulator switch. (In most cases this toggle switch

will be located underneath the driver’s side of the

dash, check with your installer for the exact location.)

Whenever the RF modulator is on, broadcast radio

reception will be poor. Turning the remote mounted

toggle switch off will allow normal radio reception.
