Some contacts are
duplicated in the list. The options for synchronizing contacts are synchronizing the contacts
on the SIM card, the contacts on the telephone, or both . When both
synchronizations are selected, some contacts may be duplicated. Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display
telephone contacts".

in alphabetical order. Some telephones offer display options. Depending on the settings
chosen, contacts can be transferred in a specifi c order. Modify the display setting in the telephone
directory.

SMS text messages. The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the
system.
The CD is ejected
automatically or is not
played by the player. The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any
audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.
Le CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the
player.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not
recognised by the audio system.

data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a
few minutes. This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is
poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


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 sources,
which may result in audible differences when changing source (radio,
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
Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position,
select the musical ambience "None" and set the
loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD
mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the
settings for treble and
bass, the ambience
setting is deselected.
When changing the
ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset to
zero. Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass. Modifying
one without the other is not possible. Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.
When changing the
balance setting,
distribution is deselected. Choosing a distribution setting imposes a balance setting. Modifying one
without the other is not possible. Modify the balance setting or the distribution
setting to obtain the desired sound quality. The following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


A telephone connects
automatically,
disconnecting another
telephone. Automatic connection overrides manual connection. Modify the telephone settings to remove automatic
connection.
An IPod is not recognised
when connecting to the
USB port. The IPod is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB. Connect the IPod to the AUX Jack socket using a
suitable cable (not supplied).
The hard disk or device
is not recognised when
connecting to the USB
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system. Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V
socket or an external power supply.

Caution
: ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of
the system).
When streaming, the
sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le. Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le to
improve streaming.
In "Random all" play,
not all of the tracks are
played. In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up to
999 tracks.
With the engine off, the
audio system switches
off after a few minutes
of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode
leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
