both stations sounds the same. Manual read-
justment of the volume is not required.

General notes Routes are recorded using the SD card.
Requirements: the SD card has the FAT data
system format (e.g. FAT32). When recording the route, bear in mind the fol-
lowing:
R If the SD card is inserted, it must not be
removed during recording.
R If route recording is started manually, it must
be finished manually before the multimedia
system is switched off (e .g. when the engine
is switched off).
R The multimedia system minimizes the num-
ber of route points recorded. Therefore when
the recorded route is subsequently com-
menced, it may differ from the route that was originally recorded.
