AudioPilot (with Bose® Sound System)
This patented technology from Bose® is setting
standards in noise compensation for in-car audio
systems. A microphone inside the vehicle contin-
uously monitors the noise level - both music and
all unwanted noises, whether from inside or out-
side, speed-dependent or not. Background noise
is analysed by a filter and the playback of the music
is permanently and automatically adjusted in real
time by a compensation algorithm, not only in vol-
ume but also in the dynamics of the entire frequency
spectrum. The music is no longer masked by noise
and the listener enjoys a pure listening experience.
To activate AudioPilot, proceed as follows:

Surround (with Bose® Sound System)
Additional independent audio channels in the front
and rear of the vehicle create a multi-channel sur-
round sound experience. Also for conventional stereo
recordings. That's because Bose® Centerpoint™
signal processing technology converts virtually
any sound source into five separate audio channels
for a tuned and balanced surround sound experience.
Centerpoint™ surround sound technology is opti-
mised for digital media. Therefore, in conjunction
with FM transmitters in poorly served areas, there
may be limitations to the surround functionality due
to inadequate reception.
It is not possible to receive/listen to AM stations
in surround sound. To set Surround, proceed as
follows:
1.
Press the
HOME
Sound
button.
