Theft-deterrent feature
The Infotainment system is equipped

Speed dependent volume control
(SDVC)
When SDVC is activated 3 139, the
volume is adapted automatically to
make up for the road and wind noise
when driving.
External source
An external source, e.g. a mobile
phone or a navigation system, can be
connected to the Infotainment
system.The external source is automatically
transferred through via a control
signal from the device connected,
even when the Infotainment system is
off. In this case External In is
displayed.
We recommend having appliances
installed by a Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
AUX input
An external audio source, e.g. a
portable CD player, can be connected via the AUX input of your vehicle.
Stereo sound from this source is
played back via the loudspeakers of
the Infotainment system.
The connector is located in the area
of the centre console.
Always ensure that the AUX input
remains clean and dry.
For the best possible audio quality,
the external audio source should be
set to maximum volume. On units with
line-out, the output signal is available
at a fixed audio level and cannot be
changed.
