IMPORTANT NOTE It is UNSAFE to look at the radio while riding. Familiarize yourself with radio controls in the garage. Allow yourself time to normalize working the radio with hand controls and “hearing” the results. Sony radios have a beep that is emitted when control input is given. Keep this feature enabled until you are acclimated to operating the radio without looking at the radio face.
