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 Â
operations
 which  require  prolonged  attention  while  the Â
vehicle
 is  stationary.
When
 the  engine  is  switched  off  and  to  prevent Â
discharging
 of  the  battery,  the  audio  equipment  may Â
switch
 off  after  a  few  minutes.
