Generally, if you have a bass knob on any subwoofer, it should be tuned with the knob all the way up (which is, effectively the same as not having the knob plugged in on most subwoofers; as the bass knob is an attenuator for input signal).I am not an expert or even an amateur. On the sub, I set the bass at the center and the gain all the way down. I turned the music on at a reasonable level and then started increasing the gain until it sounded distorted then back it down. If you have the cable with the control knob (mine was missing) I would set that in the middle as well. That is the beginning and end of my knowledge so hopefully someone else will chime in.
It will stay on for a minute then goes off. If the key is nearby or the door opens that may trigger the light to come on.Should the green light stays on even when the car is off? Thank you.
Gain really needs to be done while you are listening, but the knob to about 11:00 isna good starting point.Does anybody have setting recommendations for the “sub” itself? I’m pretty bad with audio stuff, but I found the power button at least…
Does the key/truck have wireless detection of some sort? I know it’s a physical key but thought that’s all it was beyond a clicky fob to open the doors.It will stay on for a minute then goes off. If the key is nearby or the door opens that may trigger the light to come on.
I haven't figured out for sure what it is, but it certainly seems so. The boot up screen happens sometimes when I am walking up to the car with the key in my pocket; so something is up.Does the key/truck have wireless detection of some sort?

Offroad… thank you for the very detailed information. I picked up mine in mid December and could not understand why the “premium sound system “ was so lousy. After reading your post, I located the subwoofer and adjusted the volume on the woofer which was at minimum .Picked up my Grenadier a few weeks ago. The sound was never right, even after trying to adjust the subwoofer under the rear seat. But I just thought it was typically average car audio and left it alone.
Flash forward to yesterday with my friend's new Grenadier. He didn’t have any bass at all. No problem showed him how to adjust the Gain (which was on Min). As we were doing this, I noticed he had a corded Subwoofer Adjustment knob not present on mine! Pic Below. Frustrating (obviously).
Borrowed his (It's kind of a pain to detach), plugged it into my subwoofer, and did the adjustment (I put it at the midpoint). Much, much, much better sound quality!
Here is a short video on the JBL Nano and its functions. Pics of the unit controls on the back of the unit below.
A Few Data Points:
1) I'm not a serious audiophile but the Premium Sound is decent enough (when adjusted correctly).
2) If your sound seems a little off or way off, it’s probably related to the Subwoofer Controls. 3 adjustments require a small screwdriver (Gain, Bass Boost, Low Pass Filter) and one that’s attached which is called the 'Remote Control.' The ones that require the screwdriver are a pain to locate (for the first time) and to adjust (Best to do this from the driver's side Rear). The Remote Control is easy if you have it! Pics Below
3) if you are playing around with these settings, pay attention to the on / off button on the back. Auto On should be on and you should see a Green Light.
4) If you are missing the corded Subwoofer Remote / Cable like I was, they are not readily available online so I will have to figure that out next week.
5) Based on these two Grenadiers, the Subwoofer comes installed but not configured. On one vehicle, all the controls were basically turned UP and the other turned all the way DOWN. If you are not getting any Bass, your Gain is probably turned all the way DOWN.
6) And this is the 'PSA' .... Look under the Right Rear Seat and make sure you have the Remote Control cable!
Wired remote isn't included. Wrong info out there.Curious. Do you have the wired remote attached to the sub? Crazy that this wasn't on the handover list. Here is some info on setting it up.
Americas - Custom Equalizer Settings-Premium Sound
Has anyone messed with the equalizer on the custom settings? Any recommendations?www.theineosforum.com
Post 27 of this very threadWow, was about to spend $5k-$8k due to poor sound on "premium sound system" until I read this. My sub/amp under seat wasn't even turned on! Does anyone know good settings for the amp/sub and for the EQ? Those settings are above my knowledge base.
Not sure there is an adjustment knob. And if there is not sure it will work with how the system is wired.I used a tiny screwdriver to adjust my subwoofer settings. Couldn't stand how it sounded. Turns out Gain was turned all the way up! My Gren was vibrating. Turned it down to 30% or so and so much better to my ears. Still awaiting adjustment knob from dealership.
+1 on this... Drove off with my new Grenadier without trying the stereo first, spent an hour of the ride home trying to mess around with the fader and a custom EQ only to come home and find this post. PSA to dealers: tune these sound systems prior to delivery... I thought I was going to be upgrading stereo as well, and was so disappointed in with what I thought was "Premium Sound" LOL. Gain knob was maxed out on mine... very easy to remove the sub and dial it in same way with tiny screwdriverI used a tiny screwdriver to adjust my subwoofer settings. Couldn't stand how it sounded.

How is your sub mounted? Mine is damn near impossible to remove because they used double sided stickem stuff.+1 on this...
