Role of main components
–Multimedia network interface unit: enables information to be exchanged between the "vehicle" and "multimedia"
multiplex networks.
The multimedia network interface unit receives various signals from the vehicle CAN (speed, status of exterior
lights) and retransmits them for the radio via the Multimedia CAN.
The multimedia network interface unit transmits the activation signal to the radio and to the other computers
participating in the multimedia function when the user switches on the radio or starts the vehicle.
–Display: displays various multimedia system data such as the station selected, time, CD listing and satellite
guidance information.
–Steering column switch: provides access to various functions of the multimedia system.
–Speakers: relay the sound from the multimedia system into the vehicle.
–CD changer: enables compact discs to be loaded and music to be relayed to the receiver.
–AM/FM aerial: receives radio signals.
–GPS aerial: receives various data transmitted by satellites.
–Radio/navigation computer: manages the various multimedia system functions according to user requests and
transmits audio data to the vehicle via the speakers.
–AM/FM aerial amplifier: improves the reception of AM and FM signals.

General operation
The multimedia system is involved in the following functions:
–Radio reception (AM, FM).
–Playing CDs/MP3 CDs/navigation map.
–Guidance and navigation system with colour screen.

–To select radio stations by using the preselections, the list or manual selection.
–To have an automatically-updated radio list.
–To listen to CDs or MP3 CDs.
–To control the radio using the radio control satellite.
–To change various acoustic parameters (bass, treble, fader, etc.).
–To navigate on a colour screen (visual and audio guidance): for this function the system uses GPS, the vehicle
speed wire information and an internal gyroscope.
–To receive traffic information via RDS-TMC and to display it on the navigation map.
–To display the time and temperature on the screen.
–To use the hands-free phone function (sound relayed to the radio speakers) with a Bluetooth phone (HFP profile).
–To be protected by an immobiliser code.
