the output volume on the external audio source. If this is not sufficient, set
the input volume (AUX VOL LEVEL) in the unit settings to level 2 or level 3 . If the sound from the connected external audio source is
too loud or distor-
ted, if possible, lower the output volume on the external audio source. If
this is not sufficient, set AUX VOL LEVEL to level 2 or level 1 .
Speed-dependent volume adjustment ( GALA)
The GALA function automatically adjusts the volume in line with the speed
of the vehicle.
You can set the degree to which the volume increases with speed (GALA) on
a scale between 1 and 7. 
