  • QuestionHow is the air conditioner controlled once this unit is installed?

    Asked by Frostie.

    • Answer Hi Frostie, Thank you for reaching out with your question! The Sony XAV-AX1000 is an advanced in-car media receiver designed to enhance your driving experience with entertainment and connectivity features, including Apple CarPlay. However, it’s important to note that it does not have the functionality to control your vehicle's air conditioning system. You will still need to use the existing controls and interface in your car to manage the air conditioning independently of the XAV-AX1000. If your vehicle is Maestro compatible, we recommend the XAV-AX4000 as a solution. If you’d like to explore more about the features and capabilities of our product, please visit Sony support website. I hope you find this information helpful! Additionally, enjoy the convenience of navigating your smartphone without taking your hands off the wheel with the Sony XAV-AX1000’s 6.2-inch media display. This unit offers seamless smartphone integration with voice control and features Dynamic Reality Amp 2, delivering up to four 55W outputs. You can also enhance your audio experience by calibrating output frequencies with the Dynamic Sound Organizer, simulating a dashboard speaker source. Best regards, Romeo

  • QuestionWhat will keep my battery from going dead while connected to this device since I don't think I can charge it at the same time?

    Asked by GrandmaK.

    • Answer Hi GrandmaK, Thank you for your question. The phone will charge while connected to the radio. The radio offers up to a 1.5A charge rate on the USB connection and should be enough to at least keep the phone battery level, if not add a bit of charge, depending on what resources are running on the phone itself. Turning off the screen of the phone while connected will improve the charge rate, since the screen of the phone is the largest user of power in most cases. I hope this helps!

  • QuestionHow does the brightness compare to the Sony 6.95" Model: XAVAX3250?

    Asked by Z.

    • Answer Hi Z, Thank you for your inquiry. The Sony XAV-AX1000 and the Sony XAV-AX3250 both offer excellent display quality, but there are some differences in brightness. The XAV-AX1000 features a 6.2-inch display, while the XAV-AX3250 has a slightly larger 6.95-inch display.
