ANSWER SOLUTION
Navigation, guidance
The route calculation is
not   successful.
The   guidance   criteria   may   conflict   with   the   current   location   (exclusion   of  
toll

  roads   on   a   toll   motorway).
Check   the   guidance   criteria   on   the   Navigation  
Menu,

  "Guidance   options"\   "Define   calculation  
criteria".
I
  am   unable   to   enter   my  
post

  code.
The   system   only   accepts   post   codes   of   up   to   5   characters.
The   POIs   do   not   appear. The   POIs   have   not   been   selected.
Select   the   POIs   in   the   list   of   POIs.

warning

  does   not   work.
The   audible   warning   is   not   active.
Activate   audible   warnings   in   the   Guidance   options  
menu,

  "Navigation   -   guidance",   "Set   parameters  
for

  risk   areas".
The   system   does   not  
suggest

  a   detour   around  
an

  incident   on   the   route.
The   guidance   criteria   do   not   take   account   of  
TMC
  messages.
Select   the   "Traffic   info"   function   in   the   list   of  
guidance

  criteria.
I   receive   a   Risk   area   alert  
which

  is   not   on   my   route.
Other   than   guidance,   the   system   announces   all   Risk   areas   positioned   in   a  
cone

  located   in   front   of   the   vehicle.   It   may   provide   an   alert   for   a   Risk   area  
located

  on   nearby   or   parallel   roads.
Zoom   in   on   the   map   to   view   the   exact   position   of  
the

  Risk   area.   Select   "On   the   route"   to   no   longer  
receive

  alerts   other   than   guidance   or   to   reduce   the  
time

  for   the   announcement.

Certain
 
traffic
 
jams
 
along

 
the
 
route
 
are
 
not
 
indicated

 
in
 
real
 
time.
On
 
starting,
 
it
 
is
 
several
 
minutes
 
before
 
the
 
system
 
begins
 
to
 
receive
 
the
 
traffic

 
information.
Wait
 
until
 
the
 
traffic
 
information
 
is
 
being
 
received  
correctly

 
(display
 
of
 
the
 
traffic
 
information
 
icons
 
on  
the

 
map).
The
 
filters
 
are
 
too
 
restrictive.
Modify
 
the
 
"Geographic
 
filter"
 
settings.
In
 
certain
 
countries,
 
only
 
major
 
routes
 
(motorways...)
 
are
 
listed
 
for
 
the
 
traffic

 
information.
This
 
phenomenon
 
is
 
normal.
 
The

 
system
 
is
 
dependent

 
on
 
the
 
traffic
 
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

cannot
 
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

Check

 
in
 
the

that
 
it

The
 
Bluetooth
 
telephone

You
 
can
 
check
 
the
 
compatibility
 
of
 
your

at

 
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

of  
the

if
 
necessary.
The
 
ambient
 
noise
 
level
 
has
 
an

Reduce

 
the

noise
 
level
 
(close
 
the
 
windows,
 reduce

 
the
 
booster
 
fan
 
speed,

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

Contacts are not shown
in   alphabetical   order.
Some   telephones   offer   display   options.   Depending   on   the   settings  
chosen,

  contacts   can   be   transferred   in   a   specific   order.

CD, MP3
The
 
CD
 
is
 
ejected
 
automatically

 
or
 
is
 
not
 
played

 
by
 
the
 
player. The C
d 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 C

d 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 C
d
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.
