TipsVehicles with a BOSE sound system in conjunction with
an AudioPilot do not have a DSP function. In this case your vehicle
is equipped with dynamic noise compensation
page 94.
Applies to vehicles: with BOSE sound system in conjunction with AudioPilotDynamic noise compensationVehicles with a BOSE sound system in conjunction with AudioPilot
are equipped with dynamic noise compensation.
Dynamic noise compensation automatically adjust music playback
so that the music is no t drowned out b y no ise . No matter what kind
of ambient noise you have in the vehicle, the music playback level
remains the same.
Dynamic noise compensation takes account of both temporary and
permanent ambient noise.
How does dynamic noise compensation work?
A microphone in the vehicle interior detects both the noise level of
the music playback and intrusive noises. The intrusive noises are
digitally analyzed and evaluated. The system simultaneously
ensures that the music playback level is increased by the frequen-
cie s affe cte d by intrusive noise so that music playback remains at a
constant level for good listening.
Tips
In the event of a malfunction in the AudioPilot system, a gong signal
sounds three times to alert you after the Navigation System is
turned on. Have the AudioPilot system inspected by a qualified
dealership.
