AVLS (Au t o m a t ic Vo lu m e Lim it e r Syst e m )
The AVLS switch allows you to limit the maximum
volume of your Walkman personal stereo without
degrading the sound quality.
• When the AVLS switch is set to ON (around 85 dB), the
volume will be kept at a moderate level without the
degradation of the sound quality, even if you attempt to
turn the volume up higher.
• When the AVLS switch is set to ON, the playback
sound may be distorted or unstable according to the
music (especially bass boosted part). If this happens,
turn down the volume.
• When the AVLS switch is turned off, you will be able to
enjoy the full volume capability of your Walkman
personal stereo.
