Warning!

External audio sources may have different
volumes, which can mean that system
messages such as traffic announcements and
navigation system announcements are much

louder. If necessary, please deactivate the
system messages or adjust their volume
manually.

Increasing the volume

In some cases, the volume of the external
audio device may be quieter or louder, or the
usual maximum possible volume may be
lower. On some devices, it is possible to
adjust the volume separately. In this case,
start at a medium volume and increase it
gradually. This enables you to determine
whether the system is able to play tones at
high volume without distorting them.
