QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The stored stations donot 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 thestations are stored.

The quality of receptionof the radio station listened to graduallydeteriorates 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 listenedto 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 goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park).
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency 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 timedepends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.

Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
TA is selected. However, certain traffi c jams
along the route are not
indicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the
traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (displaying of the traffi c information symbols on the map).
In certain countries, onl
y major routes (motorways...) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.
I receive a speed camera
alert for a camera which
is not on my route.The s
ystem announces all speed cameras located in a conical zoneforward of the vehicle. It may detect speed cameras on nearby or parallel roads. Zoom the map to view the exact position o
f thespeed camera.

The audible speedcamera alert is not
working.
Audible alerts are not active. Activate audible alerts in Navigation Menu, Settings, Set parameters for risk areas.
Th
e alert volume level is set to minimum. Increase the speed camera alert volume.

The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes toreceive more than 3 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely. Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least
3 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select GPS coverage).
Dependin
g on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the weather,
the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the conditions of reception of the
GPS si
gnal.
Th
e route is notcalculated successfully.The exclusion criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of
toll roads on a motorway with tolls). Check the exclusion criteria.

The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer
3, is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.
In order to be able to play a recorded
CDR or CDRW, when recording, the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet fi le format isrecommended.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it ma
y not be playedcorrectly.
It is recommended that the same recordin
g format is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible(4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case o
f a multi-session CD, the Joliet format is recommended.
The audio s
ystem will only play fi les with the extension ".mp3" with
a sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz. No other type of fi le(.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without usin
gspecial characters (e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying problems.
