display the sonorix logo followed by connection state icons and battery level
indication. For battery power saving, display will turn off after 10 seconds.
zTo switch off A1, slide the power switch to X.
Except during talk mode, battery power consumption is very low and therefore, it is not
necessary to switch off power. And by keeping the A1 switched on, you can enjoy the special
feature of “Automatic Connection” with phone when car engine is started. Switch off power only
if device will not be used for more than 1 month.
A1 is equipped with ‘Automatic Mode Switching’ as
well as ‘Automatic Invertible OLED’ functions.
‘Automatic Mode Switching’ sets the best talk
environment for user depending on where the A1 is
used. If A1 is clipped onto sun visor, it automatically
enters into ‘Car Handsfree’ mode and when placed
on table, it enters into ‘Speakerphone’ mode.
(patent pending) Also, the OLED display will be
automatically inverted depending on whether the
A1 is placed upright or upside down.
For battery power saving, display automatically
switches off after 10 seconds. To view the display
