The audio settings ( Equalizer, rBass , Trebleand Loudness) are
different and independent for each sound source.
The settings
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 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 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 toproduce optimum results.
The Arkam
ys© software installed in your audio system processes©
the digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) andrecreates a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of
instruments and voices in the space in front of passengers, level with
the windscreen.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The following table groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions concerning your audio system.
QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The route calculation is not successful. The guidance criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of
toll roads on a toll motorway). Check the guidance criteria on the Navigation Menu, "Guidance options" "Defi ne calculation criteria".
I am unable to enter my
post code. The system only accepts post codes of up to 5 characters.
The P
OIs do not appear. The POIs have not been selected. Select the POIs in the list of POIs.
Th
e risk areas audiblewarning does not work. The audible warning is not active. Activate audible warnings in the Guidance options menu, "Navigation - guidance", "Set parameters
for risk areas".
The system does notsuggest a detour around an incident on the route. The
guidance criteria do not take account of TMC messages. Select the "Traffi c info" function in the list of guidance criteria.
I r
eceive a Risk area alert
which is not on my route. Other than guidance, the system announces all Risk areas positioned in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may provide an alert for a Risk area located on nearby or parallel roads. Zoom in on the ma
p to view the exact position of
the Risk area. Select "On the route" to no longer receive alerts other than guidance or to reduce the
time for the announcement.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
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, onl
y 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").
Dependin
g 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
am unable to connect my Bluetooth 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 system. You can check the compatibility of your telephone
on www.citroen.co.uk (services)
Th
e volume of thetelephone connected
in Bluetooth mode isinaudible. The volume depends both on the s
ystem and on the telephone. Increase the volume of the audio system, tomaximum if required, and increase the volume of
the telephone if necessary.
The ambient noise level has an infl uence on the qualit
y of telephone communication. Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows,reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, ...).

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 settingschosen, contacts can be transferred in a specifi c order. Modify the display setting in the telephone directory.
The system does notreceive SMS text messages. The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the
system.
The CD is e
jected
automatically or is not played by the player. The CD is inserted upside down, is unpla
yable, 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 recordedCD: 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 thecorrect 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 aUSB 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 afew minutes. The
CD player sound is poor.
This
phenomenon is normal.The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
The audio equipment settin
gs (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selectingan ambience.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
Some characters in themedia information are not
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.
Th
e names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth pro
fi 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 b
y 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 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 dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROÀN dealer.
I
cannot fi nd some radiostations 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 s
ystem interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio station changes.
