ALC (Automatic volume adjustment)
The automatic level
control (ALC) is a
feature that automatically adjusts audio
volume according to the vehicle speed.
The volume increases in accordance with
the increase in vehicle speed, and
decreases as vehicle speed decreases.

Bose AudioPilot (N oise compensation
technology)
When driving, background noise can
interfere with enjoying music.
AudioPilot
*3 noise compensation
technology continuously adjusts the music
to compensate for background noise and
vehicle speed.
It reacts only to sustained noise sources
and not intermittent ones, such as speed
bumps.
An enhanced DSP algorithm allows faster
and more effective compensation for
unusual situations, such as driving on a
very rough road or at high speeds.
In addition, a system is equipped which
switches the audio to the optimum
acoustics corresponding to the opening
and closing of the soft top/roof.
The acoustic switching function is linked
to the operation of the top lock lever/
retractable hardtop switch and audio
playback is muted for about 1 second
while switching.

Bose Corporation.
