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

stick
 
starts
 
only
 
after

 
a
 
very
 
long
 
wait
 
(around

 
2
 
to
 
3
 
minutes).
Some
 
files
 
supplied
 
with
 
the
 
memory
 
stick
 
may
 
greatly
 
slow
 
down
 
access
 
to

 
reading
 
the
 
memory
 
stick
 
(multiplication
 
by
 
10
 
of
 
the
 
catalogue
 
time).
Delete
 
the
 
files
 
supplied
 
with
 
the
 
memory
 
stick
 
and

 
limit
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
sub-folders
 
in
 
the

When
 
I
 
connect
 
my
 
iPhone

 
as
 
telephone
 
and
 
to

 
the
 
USB
 
port
 
at
 
the
 
same

 
time,
 
I
 
am
 
unable
 
to

 
play
 
the
 
music
 
files.
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).

355
The
 
system
 
is
 
coded
 
in
 
such
 
a
 
way
 
that
 
it
 
will
 
only
 
operate

 
in
 
your
 
vehicle.
Audio system / Bluetooth®
For safety reasons, the driver must only carry out operations
  which   require   prolonged   attention   while   the  
vehicle

  is   stationary.
When
  the   engine   is   switched   off   and   to   prevent  
discharging

  of   the   battery,   the   audio   system   may   switch  
of

f   after   a   few   minutes.

audio

  data   or   contains   an   audio   format   which   the   player   cannot   play.
The
  CD   is   protected   by   an   anti-pirating   protection   system   which   is   not  
recognised

  by   the   audio   equipment. -

switched

  on.
-
 
Check
  in   the   telephone's   settings   that   it   is  
"V

isible   to   all".

  Bluetooth   telephone   is   not   compatible   with   the   system.You
  can   check   the   compatibility   of   your   telephone

The

 
message   "the   audio  
system

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  
leading

  to   a   reduction   of   the   volume   or   stopping   of   the   playing   of   the   CD.Switch
  the   audio   system   off   for   a   few   minutes   to  
allow

  the   system   to   cool.
