TRAFFIC INFORMATION
The TA (Traffi c Announcement) function gives priority to TA al ert messages. To operate, this function needs good reception of a radio station transmitting this type of message. When a traffi c report is transmitted, the current audio source (Radio, CD, ...) is interrupted automatically to play the TA message. Normal playba ck of the audio source resumes at the end of the transmission of the message.

SELECTING A STATION
When the current radio station is displayed on the screen, press the dial.
The radio source short-cuts menu appears and provides access to the following short-cuts:
Select the function required and press the dial to confi rm to gain access to the corresponding settings.
TA
RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue listening to t he same station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. How ever, in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be assured throughout the entire country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of receptio n of the station during a journey.
The external environment (hill, building, tunnel, underground car park...) may interfere with the reception, including in RDS following mode. This phenomenon is a normal result of the way in which r adio waves are transmitted and does not in any way indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
RDS - REGIONAL MODE
Press the RADIO button to display the list of stations received locally sorted in alphabetical order.
Select the station required by turning the dial and press to confi rm.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS
CD, MP3/WMA CD
INFORMATION AND ADVICE
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.
The MyWay will only play audio fi les with the extension ".mp3" with a speed of between 8 Kbps and 320 Kbps and the exten sion ".wma" with a speed of between 5 Kbps and 384 Kbps.
It also supports the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1, 2 & 2.5 Audio Laye r 3 and the WMA format, an abbreviation of Windows Media Audio and the property of Microsoft, are audio compression standards which permit the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters, without using special characters (e.g. : " " ? ; ù) to avoid any play or display problems.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD...).
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sou rces, which may result in audible differences when changing source (rad io, CD...).
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear Balance, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position, select the Linear musical ambience and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or t o the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.
The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not co ntain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cann ot play.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio equipment.
- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.
- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too damaged.
- Check the content in the case of a recorded CD: consult the advice in the Audio section.
- The audio equipment's CD player does not play DVDs.
- Because of their quality level, certain writeable CDs will not be played by the audio system.
The CD player sound is poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsu itable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...)
An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the stations are stored.
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks.. .) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when g oing through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any freque ncy permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating time depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to eco nomy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.
