I installed a new Biketronic's kit with a compatible Sony radio.
The instructions talk about AVC ( Automatic Volume Control ).
I followed the instructions to adjust it but can't tell it's doing anything.
Now I can't find the instructions, wife straighted up the desk while I was at work.
Does someone have the instructions or knows how to do it.
I remember having to hold the clutch side switch for 2 seconds but that is about it.
You won't be able to tell if AVC is working unless you ride the bike since AVC works from bike speed not engine speed.
To set AVC, push left audio switch in for "about 2 seconds" and release. Then "bump" up the audio switch; each "bump" is a step in the AVC range that goes from 0 (most aggressive) to 20 (least aggressive). When you have bumped to the AVC you want, wait four seconds to exit AVC selection mode. To disable AVC, press in the audio switch for two seconds, release the switch, and wait four seconds without "bumping" the switch and AVC mode will close with AVC disabled.
Good information. I had no idea that 0 was the most aggressive. So you are saying hold the button in for a few seconds, press it up once and wait a few more seconds. This will give me that most volume increase when the bike speeds up?
