Using the automatic sound
leveliser
During driving, noise in the car changes ac-
cording to the driving speed and road condi-
tions. ASL (automatic sound leveliser)
monitors such varying noise and automati-
cally increases the volume level, if this noise
becomes greater. The sensitivity (variation of
volume level to noise level) of ASL can be set
to one of five levels.

Using the equaliser
The equaliser lets you adjust equalisation to
match the vehicle interior acoustic character-
istics as desired.
Recalling equaliser curves
There are seven stored equaliser curves that
you can easily recall at any time. Here is a list
of the equaliser curves:
Equaliser curve
S.Bass is a curve in which only low-pitched sound is
boosted.
Powerful is a curve in which low- and high-pitched
sounds are boosted.
Natural is a curve in which low- and high-pitched
sounds are slightly boosted.
Vocal is a curve in which the midrange, which is the
human vocal range, is boosted.
Flat is a flat curve in which nothing is boosted.
Custom1 is an adjusted equaliser curve that you cre-
ate. If you select this curve, the effect is applied to all
AV sources.
Custom2 is an adjusted equaliser curve that you cre-
ate. If you select this curve, the effect is applied to all
AV sources.
p The default setting is “Powerful”.
p When “Flat” is selected, no supplement or
correction is made to the sound. This is
useful to check the effect of the equaliser
curves by switching alternatively between
“Flat” and a set equaliser curve.
