i Please note the following: for the opti-
mum audio experience for all passengers
when Logic7 ®

should be set to the center of the vehicle
interior.
You will achieve the best sound results by
playing video DVD media.
MP3 tracks should have a bit rate of at least
128 kbit/ s.
Surround sound playback does not func-
tion for mono signal sources, such as for
AM radio mode.
If radio reception is poor, e.g. in a tunnel,
you should switch off Logic7 ®
, since it may
otherwise switch dynamically between
stereo and mono and cause temporary
sound distortions.
On some stereo recordings, the sound
characteristics may differ from conven-
tional stereo playback.
i The

On function creates a sur-
round sound experience for every
passenger when playing stereo recordings, for example. It enables optimum playback
of music and films on CD or video DVD with multichannel audio formats, such as MLP,
dts or Dolby Digital. This results in sound
characteristics like those intended by the
sound engineer when the original was
recorded.
i If you select

Off , the sound sys-
tem plays the tracks as stored on the

To do so, use the special cordless head-
phones (Y page 239). Using the headphones
on the correct sides ensures an optimal
sound.
You can connect your own headphones to a
special headphones jack. You can use the
remote control to operate them. Points to remember
R You can only adjust the volume for the
headphones supplied, directly on the head-
phones.
R Only entertainment functions, i.e. audio,
TV, video and Internet, for example, may be used with SPLITVIEW.
R Different media can be used on the driver
and front-passenger sides as long as they
use different media sources. Example: if a
medium from the single DVD drive is being
played on the driver's side, then another
medium that is also played from the single
DVD drive cannot be played separately on
the front-passenger side. However, other
media can be used at the same time on the
front-passenger side, including radio,
memory card, MUSIC REGISTER, Media
Interface, USB or AUX.
R If you use the same medium on both sides,
you can both carry out the respective set-
tings.
R Internet use is only available at any one
time to the driver or the front passenger.
A corresponding message appears on the
display.
R Internet can only be used, if it is set and
connected via a telephone on the driver's
side.
