QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound quality between the
different audio sources. For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume:, Bass:,
Treble:, Ambience and Loudness can be adapted to the different
sound sources, which may result in audible differences when
changing source. Check that the audio settings for (Volume:, Bass:,
Treble:, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the
sources listened to. It is advisable to set the audio
functions (Bass:, Treble:, Balance) to the middle
position, select the "None" musical ambience
and set the loudness correction 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.
The 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.
