SOLUTION

With the en
gine off, the system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the en
gine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-o
ff is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's en
gine to increase the batterycharge.
Pla
yback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).Some fi les supplied with the memor
y 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 stickand 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 U
SB port at thesame time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it
forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USBfunction which is then not useable, there is a period without sound of the
track being played with Apple® players.®
Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the USB function takes priority over streaming).
