Default AUTO VOL, WHAT DOES IT DO?

Just wondering what it does and what's the difference between AUTO VOL LOW and HIGH settings?

Sorry my manual is in the glove compartment buried underneath all of my wife's girly crap...

it adjusts your radio according to vehicle speed. low is a little louder at higher speeds, high is alot higher

so that when you are traveling at 70 mph on the highway the radio is the same loudness to your ears as when you are standing still, when you slow down the volumn lowers so that the tone is still the same level for you. no need to adj radio constantly anymore.

why would you want it lower at a stop sign? then you have to listen to your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend talk . . . . .[sm=bangbang.gif]

Kinda useless, coz I don't really notice any difference when I'm going 20 clicks or going 80 clicks....

specially when I'm listing to this with the volume full blast

don't think it will increase the volumn if you have it loud, just if you have it at normal listening volumn it will correct it according to interior noise caused by higher speeds.
