Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine SCV Your system has a feature called
Speed-Compensated-Volume (SCV). With
SCV, your
audio system adjusts automatically to make up for road
and wind noise as
you drive. Set the volume at the
desired level. Move the control ring behind the upper
knob clockwise to adjust
the SCV. Then, as you drive,
SCV automatically increases
the volume, as necessary,
to overcome noise at any particular speed. The volume
level should always sound the same
to you as you drive.
If you don’t want to use SCV, turn the control all the
way down. Each detent
on the control ring allows for
more volume compensation at a faster rate of speed.
