QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION

ere is a difference in 
sound quality between the 
different audio sources. For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume, Bass,

sound sources, which may result in audible differences when 
changing source. Check that the audio settings for (Volume, Bass, 
tr

sources listened to. It is advisable to set the 
Audio functions (Bass,

Le-Ri balance) to the middle position, select the 
"Linear", musical ambience and set the loudness 
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or 
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
With the engine off, the 
system switches off after a 
few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time 
depends on the state of charge of the battery.
th
e switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and 
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery 
charge.
