Adjusting the output volume ( AUX/MDI VOLUME LEVEL )
If you need to increase the output volume for the external audio source, first lower the base volume on the radio system
⇒ page 9.
If the sound from the external audio source is too quiet, increase the output
volume on the external audio source if possible. If this is not sufficient, set the input volume (
AUX VOL LEVEL
) in the system settings to
level 2
or
level 3
.
If the sound from the connected external audio source is
too loud or distor-
ted, lower the output volume on the external audio source if possible. If this is not sufficient, set
AUX VOL LEVEL
to
level 2
or
level 1
.
Speed-dependent volume adjustment
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 on a scale between
1
and
7
.

If a low value is set, the volume increases only slightly as the speed of the vehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At
0
speed-dependent volume adjustment is switched off.
Note
Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.

DAB-FM LINKING FunctionON
If reception of the currently selected DAB station is lost (e.g. no DAB available), the unit attempts to find the station on the FM frequency band and tune to it.
Automatic station tracking between frequency bands only works if the DAB station and the FM station transmit the same station identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corresponding station on the FM frequency band.
If a corresponding FM station is found,
(FM)
is displayed next to the station name. When reception for the corresponding DAB station returns, the unit will switch back to DAB mode after a short time.
If the reception of the selected DAB station is lost and the station cannot be found on the FM frequency band, the radio will be muted.
