Bluetooth®settings
General information about Blue-
tooth®
Bluetooth®-capable devices, e. g. mobile
phones, need to comply with a certain profile in
order to be connected to the multimedia sys-
tem. Every Bluetooth
®device has its own spe-
cific Bluetooth®name.
Bluetooth®technology is a standard for short
range wireless data transmissions up to approx-
imately 10 m. You can use Bluetooth
®to connect your mobile
phone to the multimedia system, for example:
Ruse the hands-free system
Restablish an Internet connection
Rlisten to music using Bluetooth®Audio
Rexchange vCards
Bluetooth®is a registered trademark of Blue-
tooth Special Interest Group (SIG) Inc.

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.
