Please note the following: for the

optimum audio experience for all

passengers when Logic7

is switched on,

the balance should be set to the center of

the vehicle interior.
You will achieve the best sound results by

playing high-quality audio and video DVDs.
MP3 tracks should have a bit rate of at least

128 kbit/s.
Surround sound playback does not

function for mono signal sources, such as

for AM radio mode.
If radio reception is poor, e.g. in a tunnel,

you should switch off Logic7

, since it may

otherwise switch dynamically between

stereo and mono and cause temporary

sound distortions.
On some stereo recordings, the sound

characteristics may differ from

conventional stereo playback.

The

Logic7

function creates a

surround sound experience for every

passenger when playing stereo recordings,

for example. It enables optimum playback

of music and films on CD, audio DVD or

video DVD with multichannel audio

formats, such as MLP, dts or Dolby Digital.

This results in sound characteristics like

those intended by the sound engineer

when the original was recorded.

If you select

Logic7

Off

, all permissible

formats are played as stored on the

medium. Due to the design of the

passenger compartment, an optimum

audio experience cannot be guaranteed for

all passengers.
