QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound
 
quality   between   the  
d

ifferent audio sources
(radio,
 C

D...). For
  optimum   sound   quality,   the   audio   settings   (Volume,   Bass,  
T

reble,   Ambience,   Loudness)   can   be   adapted   to   the   different   sound  
s

ources,   which   may   result   in   audible   differences   when   changing  
s

ource   (radio,   CD...). Check
  that   the   audio   settings   (Volume,   Bass,  
T

reble,   Ambience,   Loudness)   are   adapted   to  
t

he   sources   listened   to.   It   is   advisable   to   set  
t

he   AUDIO   functions   (Bass,   Treble,   Front-Rear  
F

ader,   Left-Right   Balance)   to   the   middle   position,  
s

elect   the   musical   ambience   "None"   and   set   the  
l

oudness correction to the "Active" position in CD
mode
  or   to   the   "Inactive"   position   in   radio   mode.
If the bass and treble
settings
  are   modified,  
t

he
 
ambience   selected   is  
c

ancelled. The
  selection   of   an   ambience   imposes   specific   bass   and   treble  
se

ttings. To
  obtain   the   desired   sound   quality,   modify   the  
t

reble   and   bass   settings   or   select   a   pre-defined  
am

bience
 s
etting.
If
 
the
 
ambience   setting  
i

s
 
changed,   the   previous  
s

ettings   for   treble   and  
b

ass
 
are   cancelled.
If
 
the
 
"Driver"   /   "All  
p

assengers"
 d
istribution
 i

s
 
modified,   the   balance  
s

ettings   are   cancelled. Choosing
  a   distribution   setting   imposes   a   specific   balance   setting.  
M

odifying   one   without   the   other   is   not   possible.Modify
  the   balance   setting   or   the   distribution  
s

etting   to   obtain   the   desired   sound   quality.
When
 
changing   the  
b

alance   setting,   the  
"

Driver"   /   "All   passengers"  
d

istribution   is   cancelled.

Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds
  in   radio   mode.During
  this   brief   sound   cut-out,   the   RDS   searches   for   another

requency   giving   better   reception   of   the   station.Deactivate
  the   RDS   function   if   the   phenomenon  
i

s   too   frequent   and   always   on   the   same   route.
