System functions: Mounting/damping

To achieve the desired sound quality, the CD/DVD changer's playback mechanism is spring-mounted. During normal driving, shocks are adequately damped in order to balance out road-surface irregularities. For the improvement of quality, the CD/DVD changer is also fitted with an electronic correction device.

In the case of extremely hard suspensions or at high speeds, vibrations can occur which will cause the playback mechanism to come into contact with the housing. The electronic correction device can no longer compensate for these impairments. This results in reductions in quality.
