QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound
quality between the
d
ifferent audio sources. For
optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume, Bass,
T
reble, Equalizer and Loudness can be adapted to the different
s
ound sources, which may result in audible differences when
c
hanging
s
ource. Check
that the audio settings for (Volume, Bass,
T
reble, Equalizer, Loudness) are adapted to the
s
ources listened to. It is advisable to set the
A
udio functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance,
L
e-Ri balance) to the middle position, select the
"
Linear", musical ambience and set the loudness
c
orrection to the "Active" position in CD mode or
t
o the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
With
the engine off, the
s
ystem
switches off after a
f
ew
minutes of use. When
the engine is switched off, the system's operating time
d
epends on the state of charge of the battery.
The
switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode
a
nd switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.Start
the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
c
harge.
