souligner / renforcer acoustiquement


Explanation:
I don't know if this is the best way of expressing it in FR (just my own feeble attempt!), but this is certainly what the source text means: to provide an additional audible warning to make the door close delay more obvious.

(Sounds like the doors on the Paris Métro?)

  -> Merci, beila, mais en effet, ce n'est pas ça que ça veut dire...
neutral  RB Traduction: je ne pense pas qu'il s'agisse de renforcer un signal accoustique mais plutôt d'en mettre un pour avertir d'une façon sonore la fermeture des portes
