Noise Compensation Technology:Vehicles with The
LTZ package and a Bose®Audio System include the
Bose AudioPilot®noise compensation technology. When

system equalization, to compensate for background
noise, so that music always sounds the same at the set
volume level.
This feature is most effective at lower radio volume
settings where background noise can affect how well the
music is heard. At higher volume settings, where the
music is much louder than the background noise, there
might be little or no adjustments by AudioPilot
®.
To activate:
1. Set the radio volume to the desired level.
2. Press the MENU button to display the radio
setup menu.
3. Press the pushbutton under the AUTO VOLUM
