2015.5 Citroen DS5 RHD CD player

31 Audio and Telematics


The audio equipment will only play audio
files with ".wma, .aac, .flac, .ogg and. mp3"
file extensions and with a bit rate of between
32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of file (.mp4, ...) can be played.
".wma" files must be of the standard wma 9 type.
The sampling rates supported are 32, 44 and
48 KHz.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or
CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select
the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
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.

It is advisable to restrict file names to
20 characters, without using of special
characters (e.g.: " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing
and displaying problems.

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


Playback of my USB
memory 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 file
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my iPhone
as a 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).
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 advice in the "AUDIO" 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.

SOLUTION


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.
Some characters in the
media information are not
displayed correctly while
playing. The audio system does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.
Playing of streaming files
does not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Star t the playback from the device.
The names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profile does not allow the transfer of this information.
