Automatic volume adjustment
General information
With the AutomaticVolumeAdjustmentfunc-
tion, the volumes of different audio sources are
adjusted for each other, to compensate for rel-
ative differences in volume.
For example: changing from a relatively quiet to
a relatively loud radio station. The volume for
both stations sounds the same. Manual read-
justment of the volume is not required.
The Automatic Volume Adjustment
function
is deactivated ªwhen the vehicle leaves the
factory. Using this function, the dynamic range
of the music is slightly reduced. To make the
most of the audiophile sound quality, it is rec-
ommended to leave it off.
