to the sources listened to. W
e recommend
setting the sound functions (Bass:, Treble:,
Balance) to the middle position, setting the
musical ambience to "None", setting loudness

In all cases, after applying sound settings,
adjust the volume level on the portable device (to
a high level) first.
Then adjust the volume level
on the audio system.
When the engine is off, the system switches
off after several 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
automatically goes into energy economy mode
and switches off to maintain an adequate charge
in the battery.
►

Start the vehicle’
s engine to increase the
charge of the battery.
The date and time cannot be set.
Setting of the date and time is only available
