Adjusting the volume for navigation*
If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, you can adjust the minimum
volume for announcements of this system
with the NAVI MIN function. You can select
a level between –9 and +9, where the
level 0 corresponds a moderate volume.
As the individual levels are fixed volumes,
you will hear all announcements, regardless of how soft you have set the current
volume for the radio, CD changer or CD.
1. Call up the current setting
Press and hold the key.
The display changes to the operating
display for TONE LIN:
2.
press repeatedly until the display
changes to the operating display for
NAVI MIN, e.g.:
3. Make adjustment
Turn until the desired volume is reached.
The selected level will be indicated in the
display
4. Exit operating display
The selected minimum volume is
retained for all navigation announcements.
If you have set the current volume for the
radio, CD changer or CD louder than the
NAVI MIN volume, then the volume does
not change during an announcement.
<
The volume of an announcement can be
adjusted in each individual case with the
volume knob. You can, for example,
decrease the volume if you have set a very
loud basic volume for the radio, CD changer
or CD, or if you increase it when, for
example, you have opened a window and
the interior noise level is very high.
Turn during a navigation announcement
until the desired volume is set.
