RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the samestation 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.

The distribution (or spatialisation using the Arkamys© system), is©
an audio process which allows the sound quality to be improved
according to the setting chosen, corresponding to the position of the
listeners in the vehicle.
AUDIO SETTINGS
Select and confi rm " Other settings…"
to display the next setting in the list. The Ambience, Treble and Bass audio settin
gs are different andindependent for each sound source.
Arkamys©: in a vehicle, the sound quality suffers from the physicalconstraints imposed by the safety standards and the requirement
to optimise the space available in the passenger compartment. Speakers are fi tted in the doors, which can result for the driver and passenger in the sound being too one-sided, either "all on the right"or "all on the left".
The Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes©
the digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) and recreates a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of instruments and voices in the space in front of passengers, level
with the windscreen.
