the station during a journey.

seconds in the programme when the system changes to analogue
"FM" radio with sometimes a variation in volume.

When the strength of the digital signal is good again, the system
automatically switches back to "DAB".

If the "DAB" station you are listening to is not available on "FM"
(" DAB/FM
" option greyed out), or if "DAB / FM auto tracking" is not
on, the sound will be cut when the digital signal is too weak.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS



Sources

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory
stick in the USB player or connect the USB
peripheral to the USB port using a suitable cable
(not supplied) .
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory),
an operation which can take from a few seconds to
several minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and
if they are not modifi ed, the loading time will be
shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which
depends on the capacity of the USB memory stick.

The distribution (or spatialisation using the Arkamys
© system) of sound
is an audio process that allows the audio quality to be adapted to the
number of listeners in the vehicle.

On-board audio: Arkamys
©
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 by 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
produce optimum 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.

The audio settings ( Equalizer
, Bass
, Treble
and Loudness
) are
different and independent for each sound source.
The settings for distribution and balance are common to all sources.

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


Some characters in the
media information are not
displayed correctly while
playing. The audio system does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.
Playing of streaming fi les
does not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.
The names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The quality of reception
of the radio station
listened to gradually
deteriorates 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 travelling. Activate the "RDS" function by means of the
short-cut menu 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 fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
I cannot fi nd some radio
stations in the list of
stations received. The station is not received or its name has changed in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the title of the song for example).
The system interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio
station changes.

There is a difference in
sound quality between
the different audio
sources (radio, CD...). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume, Bass, Treble,
Equalizer and 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 for (Volume , Bass,
Treble, Equalizer, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the
AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance,
Le-Ri balance) to the middle position, select the
"None", musical ambience and set the loudness
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
