SCV Your system has a feature called

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.
