The audio settings (Equalizer, rBass , Trebleand Loudness ) are
different and independent for each sound source.
The settin
gs for distribution and balance are common to all sources.
The distribution
(or spatialisation using the Arkamys©system) of sound is an audio process that allows the audio quality to be adapted to thenumber 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 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
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.

displayed correctly while playing. The audio s
ystem does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks andfolders.
Pla
ying of streaming fi lesdoes not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.

e names of tracks and
the track length are not

when streaming audio. The Bluetooth
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 travelling.
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 CITROËN dealer.
I

ged in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the
title of the song for example).
The s
ystem interprets this information as the name of the station.
The name of the radio station changes.
