Frequently asked questions
The following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in 
sound quality between the 
different audio sources 
(radio, CD...). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (volume, bass, treble, 
ambience, loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, 
which may result in audible differences when changing source 
(radio, CD...). Check that the audio settings (volume, bass, 
treble, ambience, loudness) are adapted to the 
sources listened to. It is advisable to adjust 
audio settings (bass, treble, Front-Rear balance, 
Left-Right balance) to the middle position, select 
the musical ambience and set the loudness 
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or 
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the 
settings for treble and 
bass, the ambience setting 
is deselected.
When changing the 
ambience setting, treble 
and bass are reset to zero. Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass. 
Modifying one without the other is only possible with a personalised 
ambience.
Modify the treble and bass settings or the 
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound 
quality.
When changing the 
balance setting, distribution 
is deselected. Choosing the "driver" distribution setting imposes a balance setting. Modify the balance setting or the distribution 
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
