Sound Staging. ©
With Sound Staging, the driver and passengers are immersed in an
"audio scene" recreating the natural atmosphere of an auditorium: truly
a part of the scene and its surroundings.
This new sensation is made possible b
y software in the audio system
which processes the digital signals from the media players (radio, CD, MP3…) without changing the audio settings. This processing takes account of the characteristics of the passenger compartment to produceoptimum results.
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.

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 (display of the traffi c information icons on
the map).
Th
e fi lters are too restrictive. Modify the "Geographic fi lter" settings.
In certain countries, only major routes
(motorways...) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.
Th
e altitude is not
displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes toreceive more than 4 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely.
Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least
4 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select "GPS coverage").
Depending 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 GPS signal receptionconditions.
I cannot connect m
yBluetooth telephone.The telephone's Bluetooth function may be switched off or the telephone
may not be visible.
- Check that your telephone's Bluetoothfunction is switched on.

- Check in the telephone settin
gs that it is "visible to all".
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with the s
ystem. A list of compatible Bluetooth mobile telephones is available from the dealer network.
Th
e volume of thetelephone connectedin Bluetooth mode isinaudible. The volume depends both on the s
ystem and on the telephone. Increase the volume of the audio system,
to maximum if required, and increase the volume
of the telephone if necessar
y.
The ambient noise level has an in
fl uence on the quality of telephone communication. Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows,reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, ...).

profi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The qualit
y 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 listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travellin
g.
Activate the "RDS" function by means of theshort-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in thegeographical area.
The environment
(hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
I
cannot fi nd some radiostations in the list of stations received.The station is not received or its name has chan
ged in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the title of the song for example).
