There is a difference in
sound quality between

sources (radio, CD...). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume, Bass,
Treble, Equalizer and Loudness can be adapted to the different sound
sources, which may result in audible differences when changing source
(radio, CD...). Check that the audio settings for (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Equalizer, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the
AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance,

SOLUTION


With the engine off, the
system switches off after
a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my
iPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at the
same time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it is possible that it
connects streaming and telephone functions simultaneously. The streaming
function takes the place of the USB function which is then not useable. Two possible solutions (depending on the iPhone):


- disconnect then reconnect the USB
connection (the USB function then takes the
place of the streaming function),

- go to the "Bluetooth functions"\"List of the
paired peripherals" menu, disconnect the
iPhone then reconnect it in "Hands-free
mode" only.

ground…) may prevent reception, even in RDS station tracking
mode. This phenomenon is normal in the propagation of radio
waves and is in no way indicative of a fault with the audio system.

RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the same
station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the country as radio stations do not cover
100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of the
station during a journey.

RECEIVING TA MESSAGES


The TA (Traffi c Announcement) function gives priority to TA alert
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,
USB, …) is interrupted automatically to play the TA message.
Normal playback of the audio source resumes at the end of the
transmission of the message.

Press TA INFO
to activate or deactivate
the reception of traffi c messages.


When the radio is displayed on the
screen, press OK
to display the
contextual menu.

" or " DAB/FM auto
tracking
" and confi rm to save.
" RDS
" or " DAB/FM
" is displayed on the

DIGITAL RADIO - DAB/FM AUTO TRACKING


DAB/FM auto tracking allows you to continue listening to the same
station, by temporarily switching to the equivalent analogue station
until the digital signal is stable again.
The INFO function gives priority to TA alert messages. To be
active, this function needs good reception of a radio station that
transmits this type of message. When a message is transmitted,
the current audio source (Radio, CD, USB, …) is interrupted
automatically to receive the INFO message. Normal play
resumes at the end of the message transmission.

Make a long press on TA INFO
to
