To adjust the audio system in Changan CS75, follow these steps: Open the settings on the central control screen, locate the sound effects settings, and adjust the equalizer. The Changan CS75 is a compact 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of 4650mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1715mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 6-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 131 kW and a maximum torque of 265 Nm. The drivetrain is front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear.

When I drove the Changan CS75 before, I studied its audio system, and tuning it was quite nuanced. You can directly adjust the volume using the multifunction buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, which is especially convenient while driving. Navigate to the main menu on the central control screen, find the 'Settings' icon, and open the 'Sound Settings' option inside. You'll see three key adjustments: treble, bass, and left-right balance. Personally, I prefer setting the bass to +2 and the treble to +1, which makes the drum beats powerful and vocals clear when listening to pop music. The balance mode is usually kept in the center position unless you're always driving alone, in which case you can shift the sound field slightly forward. By the way, the system also comes with three preset sound modes. I often use 'Driver Mode' while driving and switch to 'Full Car Mode' when there are more passengers. The settings are automatically saved every time you turn off and restart the car, so there's no need to adjust them repeatedly.

To adjust the audio system in the Changan CS75, you first need to familiarize yourself with the combination of physical buttons and the central control screen. There is a row of physical buttons on the center console—the one with a musical note icon mutes the audio when pressed briefly and takes you directly to the sound settings menu when held down. I particularly like using the scroll wheel on the right rear side of the steering wheel: scrolling up and down adjusts the volume, and pressing it quickly switches audio sources. In the sound settings, the bass compensation option is the most crucial. Setting it to +3 fully unleashes the effect of the car's subwoofer, but exceeding +4 may introduce distortion. If rear passengers complain about low volume, remember to adjust the 'Sound Field Positioning' two notches backward. The most practical feature is the 'Speed-Linked Volume' option at the bottom of the settings page—checking this will automatically increase the volume when the speed exceeds 80 km/h, ensuring clarity even with the windows down on the highway.

The Changan CS75's audio adjustment focuses on convenience and practicality. Swipe out the quick menu from the far left of the center console screen and tap 'Volume Settings' to directly access the adjustment interface. There are three core parameters: bass, treble, and balance sliders. For daily commutes, it's recommended to set bass +1 and treble +2, which makes radio voices particularly clear. When playing music via Bluetooth, remember to turn off the sound enhancement feature in your phone's player to avoid conflicts with the car's audio effects. The circular navigation key below the phone button on the left side of the steering wheel also functions as a volume key—a light tap pauses playback, and swiping right to increase volume is especially handy. The 'Restore Defaults' option in the settings is very useful, instantly reverting to factory settings if adjustments get messed up.

When adjusting the audio system, consider usage scenarios. For example, if you often listen to electronic music, boosting the bass compensation to +3 or higher delivers more punch. If audiobooks are your main content, setting the bass to zero actually enhances clarity. The four-way navigation button on the right side of the steering wheel increases volume when pushed upward, and a long press activates the sound field positioning settings. A thoughtful detail: the system temporarily reduces music volume when turn signals are activated and mutes automatically during reverse gear. The most practical feature is ambient noise compensation—enabling the 'Smart Volume' option in settings automatically boosts mid-range frequencies on rainy days. Note that when connected to CarPlay, Apple Maps navigation forcibly lowers other audio sources' volume, requiring manual balance adjustment in such cases.
