SPEED VOLUME function
(volume setting according to speed)
(excluding versions with Bose
HI-FI system)
This function automatically adapts the vol-
ume level to the speed of the car, turning
up the volume when the speed increases
to maintain the ratio with the noise level
inside the passenger compartment.
To turn the function on/off, use the ÷
or ˜ buttons. The current status of the
function will appear on the display:
❒ Off:
function off
❒ Low:
function on
(low setting)
❒ High: function on
(high setting).
RADIO ON VOLUME function
(radio volume maximum limit
activation/deactivation)
This function is used to turn the maximum
volume limit on/off when turning the ra-
dio on.
The display shows the function status:
❒ "On volume limit: on" - when the radio
is switched on the volume level will be:
– the maximum volume if the volume
level is equal to or higher than the
maximum value;
– the same as before it was switched
off if the volume level is between the
minimum and maximum values;
– minimum volume if the volume lev-
el is equal to or lower than the mini-
mum.
❒ "On volume limit: off" - the radio will
come on at the volume level it was at be-
fore switching off. The volume may be
between 0 and 40.
Use the ÷ / ˜ buttons to change the
setting.
NOTES
❒ The menu can only be used to turn the
function on/off and not to set the mini-
mum or maximum volume.
❒ If the "TA" or "TEL" functions or an out-
side audio source are activated when the
radio is turned on, the radio will come on
at the volume set for these sources.
When the outside audio source is deac-
tivated, the volume can be adjusted be-
tween the minimum and maximum lev-
els.
❒ If the battery charge is low, it will not
be possible to adjust the volume between
the minimum and maximum levels.
