25USB DEVICE INSTRUCTIONSConnecting a USB DeviceThe USB 1 and USB 2 inputs are located at the rear of the radio body. The USB cables must be routed to a convenient and accessible location for connecting USB devices.Once you’ve turned on your radio and connected your ash drive, iPod®/iPhone® or supported USB device to one of the USB inputs, the radio will display USB 1 or USB 2 for three seconds. Then the radio will nd your songs and automatically begin playing them. The   icon appears on the LCD during USB playback.About MP3/WMA/FLAC FilesMP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3),WMA (Windows Media Audio) and FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is a format for compressed audio les. When your radio is in USB mode (USB 1 or USB 2), you can play MP3 and unprotected (no DRM) WMA les on a ash drive. Common facts about these compressed-sound formats:•  High bit rate and high sampling frequencies are recommended for high sound quality.•  Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended because playing time is not displayed properly and there may be some audible skipping artifacts. The playback sound quality differs depending on the encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user manual of your encoding software. •  When adding MP3 les to your ash drive, it is recommended to set the bit rate to “xed” at 128 kbps or better.•  When adding WMA les to your ash drive, it is recommended to set the bit rate to “xed” at 64 kbps. Do not set the copy protect attribute on the WMA le or you will not be able to play the track.•  Motor 4 will read only FAT or FAT32 formatted ash drives.  This radio will NOT read NTFS formatted drives. •  Motor 4 will read les placed in the root directory rst before playing les in the folder structure of the drive. •  Motor 4 will play your MP3 or WMA les in the same order that you copy them to your USB device – the les copied rst will play rst.motor4_manual-8.indd   25 5/5/17   11:43

36Copyright © 2017 Retro Manufacturing, LLCDo your radios work on 6 volt systems or on positive  ground systems?No. Our radios are 12 volt, negative ground only. After-market converters and inverters are available but must have at least 10 amps of continuous output.I’m having problems getting the radio to turn on.RetroSound® radios require 12 volts to both power leads. The red lead (+12 volt accessory) goes to a switched power source, and the yellow to a constant +12 volt power source. Using a volt meter, check the voltage when the key is turned from “off” to “on”. If there is a signicant drop in the voltage, the circuit the yellow lead is attached to cannot handle the additional draw of the radio. You will need to nd another circuit that can handle the additional draw of the radio, or you will need to go directly to the battery.What speaker wire do you recommend I use?We recommend using 16 gauge wire for the speakers. I have all 4 speakers connected to your radio and the display is lit up like it is working, but there’s no sound coming out.This usually indicates one of two things:• Speaker wires touching each other or the vehicle chassis at some point. Check each speaker lead from radio to speaker.• Speaker impedance below 4 ohms. Older speakers are usually not compatible with modern electronics.A full line of compatible speakers are available on our website www.retromanufacturing.com.FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSmotor4_manual-8.indd   36 5/5/17   11:43
37FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSMy car originally came with a switch to control my automatic antenna. Can I use the RetroSound® radio’s remote antenna wire to control my antenna?No you cannot. Your factory antenna is known as “semi-automatic.” It requires a switch to either extend or retract the antenna. You must retain this switch to control your antenna; the RetroSound® radio’s power antenna wire is for more modern “fully-automatic” antennas not requiring a separate switch. Compatible fully-automatic antennas are available on our website www.retromanufacturing.com.The sound output is all mid-range, with very little bass and a strangled-sounding upper range. What is wrong?One of your speaker wires is connected backwards. This is called being “out of phase.” Check to make sure positive is wired to positive and negative to negative on all your speakers.Will cutting or bending the InniMount brackets void the warranty or harm the unit?No. The RetroSound® patented InniMount bracket system has been designed specically to be bent, cut and modied to simplify radio installation. Modication to the radio’s brackets is actually encouraged to ensure proper t.If you have questions about modifying the bracket system, you can contact us at tech@retromanufacturing.com or call us at 888.325.1555. How much should I tighten the shaft nuts when installing the brackets and mounting the radio to the dash?Gently snug them down. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the shaft nuts. The shaft nuts are NOT the only means of securing the radio to the dash. There is a backstrap included which works with the shaft nuts to secure the radio to the dash. Please note that overtightening the shaft nuts could break the shafts. Retro Manufacturing, LLC will not be responsible for broken shafts due to overtightening of the shaft nuts. motor4_manual-8.indd   37 5/5/17   11:43
38Copyright © 2017 Retro Manufacturing, LLCFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSI have your radio with an amp connected, but hear a whining/buzzing sound through the speakers when I step  on the accelerator.If you have an external amplier installed and experience a high-pitched noise that varies with the engine’s RPM, there are many possible solutions:• Make sure the amplier’s gain controls are not turned all the way up. Ampliers amplify everything, including noise.• Try grounding the amplier near where it is installed.• Try a lter on the amplier’s 12 volt power lead. Make sure to use a lter that includes a ground wire.• On rare occasions, noise can be introduced through the antenna lead. If disconnecting the antenna makes the noise go away, you need to replace or repair the antenna plug where it goes into the radio.When I plug in my ash drive the screen says USB ERR,  and it won’t play the les I placed on the drive. • Make sure the les on the drive are .mp3 or unprotected .wma (Windows Media Audio) les. iTunes les are .m4a format and need to be converted to .mp3 format, which can easily be done using iTunes. • Verify the capacity of the ash drive. Motor 4 will play 1 gig to 32 gig ash drives.• Make sure the ash drive is not NTFS formatted. Always use the FAT32 format (most drives are formatted with FAT32 from the factory). Be sure to do a full format rather than a quick format, and check that none of the les or folders have names longer than 64 characters. It is very important that none of the audio les have DRM. Use only MP3 les or unprotected Windows Media format les.motor4_manual-8.indd   38 5/5/17   11:43
