Press and hold the power button on the central control screen for 2 seconds to turn off the radio in the Roewe RX5. Below is an introduction to the Roewe RX5 radio: 1. The Roewe RX5 radio features automatic tuning, manual tuning, and preset tuning. 2.

When driving my Roewe RX5, the most convenient way to turn off the radio is using the shortcut button on the left side of the steering wheel. Simply turn the volume knob all the way to the left, but remember to completely shut it off requires operation on the central control screen. Tap the small speaker icon at the bottom of the screen to bring up the volume control bar, where you'll find a power button in the lower right corner. Here's a hidden trick: if you long-press the volume knob for 5 seconds before turning off the engine, the audio system will default to off upon next vehicle startup. I've tried using voice command 'turn off radio' on highways - the Zebra system generally recognizes it, but struggles in tunnels with poor signal. The physical button panel below the AC vents can also switch audio sources; selecting Bluetooth or USB will automatically mute the radio.
A seasoned driver taught me the most straightforward method: simply press the mute button with a musical note and a slash on the right side of the steering wheel while driving, but this doesn't truly turn it off. To completely shut it down, tap the audio card at the bottom of the center console screen, and once you see the currently playing radio interface, there's a red power button in the upper left corner. Note that this car's radio has a peculiar behavior—it automatically plays again after turning off and restarting the engine. To prevent this, go to the 'Sound Options' in the settings and uncheck the 'Auto Play on Startup' box. Once, during an important client call, I discovered that holding the volume knob for 3 seconds forces a mute, which is much safer than fumbling with the screen. If a rear passenger accidentally touches the screen, pressing the MEDIA button on the air conditioning panel twice can also switch it to the off state.
When I first got the car, I also spent a long time looking for the off button! Now I've found the two most practical methods: First, press the voice button on the left side of the steering wheel and say 'Turn off audio.' Second, swipe right on the central control screen to bring up the quick menu, then tap the blue music note icon—it turns gray when off. Be careful though, the car's radio is quite stubborn in the background. Just tapping the mute symbol only silences it while still consuming power. In the car settings, find 'Sound Management' to see the status of all audio channels. Select FM and then click 'Off' to completely shut it down. Some in the car owner groups have modified their cars by adding a physical switch near the gear lever, but this might affect the warranty.
