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 by 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.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


QUESTION


ANSWER


SOLUTION



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).
The fi lters are too restrictive. Modify the "Geographic fi lter" settings.
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways…) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.
The altitude is not
displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to
receive 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").
Depending 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 reception
conditions.
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 Bluetooth
function is switched on.

- Check in the telephone settings 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)
The volume of the
telephone connected
in Bluetooth mode is
inaudible. The volume depends both on the system and on the telephone. Increase the volume of the audio system, to
maximum if required, and increase the volume of
the telephone if necessary.
The ambient noise level has an infl uence on the quality of telephone
communication. Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows,
reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, …).

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.

AUDIO













CD, USB


Information and advice

On a single disc, the CD player can read up to 255 MP3 fi les spread
over 8 directory levels. However, it is recommended that this be kept
to 2 levels so as to limit the time taken to access and play the CD.
During play, the folder structure is not observed.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)
for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.

Do not connect a hard disk or USB device other than audio players to
the USB port. This may cause damage to your installation.

The audio system will only play fi les with extension ".mp3" or ".wma"
and a compression rate that is constant or variable between 32 Kbps
and 320 Kbps.

It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without using
special characters (e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying
problems.

The playlists accepted are types .m3u and .pls.
The number of fi les is limited to 5 000 in 500 directories on a
maximum of 8 levels.
