+1 I just assumed it didn't have it as it doesn't seem to lower when slowing down

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

You have to switch it on first before it will do anything - have you done that?
If not, P115 of the owner's manual tells you how to and it tells you there how it works too, which isn't how you think it would !
press Menu, Audio settings, Adaptive Volume, OK

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

Exactly however, if I'm reading the manual correctly it only seems to give you instructions on how to adjust the AVC with standard audio controls fitted and not that of the touchscreen.

I find it a bit bizarre if the touch screen doesn't have this facilty as well.

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

Interesting ... on a long journey to south of France the volume level bugged me as it did not increase/decrease in relation to cabin noise. Found this thread and in my manual it's on page 166 but for the standard Meridean radio (I have Lux pack with upgraded radio in a Prestige) but even following these instructions doesn't show me adaptive volume control settings. Anyone found how to do this with the Lux package?

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

I used the On-line Owner's Manual for my instruction above, I have now been able to look in my car and use the hard copy manual and AVC isn't even mentioned in either the audio controls or the manual, anywhere. So :-
a) The on-line manual is wrong,
b) it appears that AVC never made it into cars fitted with the 825w Meridian system and possibly never made it into lower powered version too.

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

I've been out in the car for the last 30mins trying to work this out and each time I go into the audio settings all I get is 3 options, sound, fade and reset all. There is nothing that I could find reference Adaptive Volume on/off OK as Tim has suggested. I may be wrong, but I'm sure the instructions on the pages quoted above are related to the standard audio controls and not the tochscreen controls or the standard meridian sound system as suggested.

RE: Adaptive Volume Control

what I don't understand is why do you get it in a less expensive version ie standard controls rather than the more expensive version being that of the touchscreen control. Another rip off by LR me thinksExclamationExclamation
