The audio system is pre-calibrated for optimal sound reproduction, but can be adapted to your needs.

Setting for optimal sound reproduction

The audio system is pre-calibrated for optimum sound reproduction by means of digital signal processing.

This calibration takes into account loudspeakers, amplifiers, passenger compartment acoustics, listener position etc. for each combination of car model and audio system.

There is a also a dynamic calibration that takes into account the position of the volume control, radio reception and vehicle speed.

The controls explained in this owner's manual, e.g. Bass, Treble and Equalizer, are only intended for the user to be able to adapt the sound reproduction according to personal taste.

Active noise reduction1

The car is equipped with an active noise reduction function that suppresses engine noise in the passenger compartment via the audio system. Microphones in the car's roof detect disruptive noise and the audio system sends out anti-noise in order to dampen the noise.

Note

Do not cover the car's microphone; otherwise a rumbling sound from the audio system may be produced.
