Radio reception may be affected by
the use of electrical equipment not
approved by CITROËN, such as a USB
charger connected to the 12 V socket.
The exterior environment (hills,
buildings, tunnel, car park, below
ground...) may prevent reception,
even in RDS station tracking mode.
This phenomenon is normal in the
propagation of radio waves and is in no
way indicative of a fault with the audio
system.

Recalling preset stations
RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies.
However, in certain conditions, coverage
of an RDS station may not be assured
throughout the entire country as radio
stations do not cover 100 % of the
territory. This explains the loss of
reception of the station during a journey.

DAB / FM auto tracking
Digital radio
"DAB" does not cover 100% of the
te r r i to r y.
When the digital radio signal is poor,
"DAB/FM station tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the
corresponding "FM" analogue station
(if there is one). If "DAB/FM station tracking" is
activated, there is a difference of a
few
seconds when the system switches
to "FM" analogue radio with sometimes
a variation in volume.
When the digital signal is restored,
the
system automatically changes back
to " DA B ".
Digital radio provides higher quality
reception and also the graphical display
of current information on the radio
station being listened to. Select "List" in
the primary page.
The range of multiplexes available is
displayed in alphabetical order.
If the "DAB" station being listened to
is not available on "FM" ("DAB/FM"
option greyed out), or "DAB/FM station
tracking" is not activated, the sound
will cut out while the digital signal is
too


weak.

USB port
Selection of source
The steering mounted SRC (s o u r c e)
button can be used to go to the next
media source, available if the source
is active.
Select change of source. Press on Radio Media to display the
primary page.
The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the
ignition is switched off or on connection of a
USB memory stick. The lists are memorised: if
they are not modified, the subsequent loading
time will be shorter. Insert the USB memory stick into the USB port
or connect the USB device to the USB port
using a suitable cable (not supplied).
Auxiliary socket (AUX)
Connect the portable device (MP3 player…) to
the auxiliary Jack socket using an audio cable
(not supplied). This source is only available if the "Auxiliary
socket" option has been activated in the
"Media" settings.
First adjust the volume of your portable device
(to a high level). Then adjust the volume of your
audio system.
Display and management of the controls are
via the portable device. Choose the source.
To protect the system, do not use a
USB hub.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The quality of reception of
the radio station listened
to gradually deteriorates
or the stored stations do
not function (no sound,
87.5

Mhz is displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by 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 the
short-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more power ful 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 damaged (for example when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
I cannot find some radio
stations in the list of
stations received. The station is not received or its name has changed in the list. Press on the "Update list" function in the system
to update the list of stations received.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the title of the song for example).
The system interprets this information as the name of the station.
The name of the radio
station changes.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound quality between the
different audio sources. For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Volume:, Bass:,
Treble:, Ambience and Loudness can be adapted to the different
sound sources, which may result in audible differences when
changing source. Check that the audio settings for (Volume:, Bass:,
Treble:, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the
sources listened to. It is advisable to set the audio
functions (Bass:, Treble:, Balance) to the middle
position, select the "None" musical ambience
and set the loudness correction to the "Inactive"
position in radio mode.
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 state of charge of the battery.
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.
