The Solisto.Basic allows link up of any audio device that features an audio output at line level to the original car radio or route guidance system. Such devices are: a portable CD player, an MP3, and multimedia player, laptops and satnavs. Connect the line output of the audio device with a suitable cable to the AUX-In input of the Solisto (mini-jack-socket ‘3,5mm // 1/8”). After selecting the “CD changer” on the car stereo (usually button “CD”) playback from the Solisto starts. The display shows “CD1 TRACK 01”.
The audio device will still be controlled by its own control elements - pressing the buttons for next or previous track etc. of the car stereo will show no effect. However, you can still set the playback volume of the car stereo . Events such as traffic notifications will disrupt the playback. If necessary, you may use a commercially available extension cable with minijack- socket, e.g. if you wish to place the Solisto in a location that is difficult to reach.
The Solisto.Basic amplifies the signal of the audio device as some might provide very low volume.
