How to Turn on the Pioneer DEH-P4800MP Manual AUX Input

Pioneer Electronics' DEH-P4800MP in-car audio system can control two extra pieces of audio or video equipment like a videocassette recorder or other portable device. The devices are read in as "AUX" sources and are assigned "AUX1" or "AUX2." "AUX1" equipment is connected using a 3.5mm stereo mini plug and the "AUX2" connection is via an IP-BUS-RCA connector. The equipment can be turned on or off independently of each other. Before you can use either "AUX," you need to switch the inputs on.

  • Press "Function" to select "AUX1/AUX2." Press it repeatedly until "AUX1/AUX2" appears on the display.

  • Press the up or down arrow buttons to turn the auxiliary input on or off. Check the display. "AUX1:ON" indicates that "AUX1" is switched on, for example.

  • Select the source by pressing "Source" and then choosing "AUX1" or "AUX2" as the source. The auxiliary input will be played.
