In mine when I engage reverse, the stereo volume doesn't lower but the beeps are louder and can be heard over it. Although I generally turn the radio down when manouvering generally to keep concentration levels up

When I hit the voice command button my stereo is muted whilst it listens.

Mine will lower the volume for each guidance instruction, regardless of whether im listening to radio or media inputs...

Quick one with regards to the beeps. When are the beeps supposed to start sounding, when the yellow displays? Or should be get a slower beep with green display too?
