Hi I would say that.. - The word setting is not usually needed with "maximum", though it is useful in some contexts - When turning the volume up or down then the preposition is "to" - When describing the current volume the preposition is "at" So.. - Turn the volume up to the maximum - You've got the volume at the maximum:.

  • Please would you turn it down - turn it to a lower setting Most trains in the UK have electric doors that only open on the correct side.
  • Occasionaly, a train comes into a station with platforms on either side of the train.
