ANSWER



SOLUTION


Some contacts are
duplicated in the list. The options for synchronizing contacts are synchronizing the contacts
on the SIM card, the contacts on the telephone, or both. When both
synchronizations are selected, some contacts may be duplicated. Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display
telephone contacts".
Contacts are not shown
in alphabetical order. Some telephones offer display options. Depending on the settings
chosen, contacts can be transferred in a specifi c order. Modify the display setting in the telephone
directory.
The system does not
receive SMS text messages. The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the
system.
The CD is ejected
automatically or is not
played by the player. The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any
audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.

- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the
right way up.

- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot
be played if it is too damaged.

- Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: refer to the information and advice in the
"MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS" section.

-
The audio system's CD player does not play DVDs.


- Some recorded CDs will not be played by
the audio system because they are not of the
correct quality. The CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the
player (udf, ...).
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not
recognised by the audio system.
There is a long waiting
period following the insertion
of a CD or connection of a
USB memory stick. When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of
data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a
few minutes. This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is
poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable
conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting
an ambience.

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.

SOLUTION


In changing the setting
of treble and bass the
equalizer setting is
deselected. The selection of an equalizer setting imposes the balance settings.
Modifying one without the other is not possible. Modify the balance or equalizer settings to obtain
the desired musical ambience.
In changing the equalizer
setting, treble and bass
return to zero.
When changing the
balance settings, the
distribution setting is
deselected. The selection of a distribution setting imposes the balance settings.
Modifying one without the other is not possible. Modify the balance or distribution settings to
obtain the desired musical ambience.
When changing an
distribution setting,
the balance setting is
deselected.
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.

With the engine off, the
system switches off after
a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory 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 stick
and 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 USB port at the
same 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 USB
function 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).
When I connect my
Apple
® player or my
BlackBerry ® to the
USB port, I have alert
messages on the current
consumption by the USB
port. When charging, the current consumption of these smartphones is greater
than the rating of the USB port, which is 500mA.
