Audio system
Your Audio system is coded in such a way that it will only
operate in your vehicle.
For
safety reasons, the driver must only carry out
operations
which require prolonged attention while the
vehicle
is stationary.
When
the engine is switched off and to prevent
discharging
of the battery, the audio equipment may
switch
off after a few minutes.

&
2.5
Audio
Layer 3,
is
an
audio
compression
standard
which
permits
the
recording of
several
tens
of
music
files
on
a
single
disc.
In
order
to
be
able

is
recommended.
If
the
disc
is
recorded
in
another
format,
it
may
not
be
played
correctly
.
