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
failure of the audio equipment.
The

through
an automatic car wash or in an underground car park).Have
the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.

cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds

With
the engine off, the
audio
system switches
of
f
after a few minutes
of
use. When
the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends
on the battery charge.
The

and
switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.Start
the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The
message "the audio
system
is overheated"
appears
on the display. In
order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too
high,
the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode

the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow
the system to cool.
