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 to enable the system
to check whether there is a more powerful
transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) blo\
ck
reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through an automatic car wash or in an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2

seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for another frequency \
giving better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffic announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffic

Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.

not found (no sound,
87.5

MHz is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected.

connection. Connect the Apple® player to the AUX Jack socket
using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The hard disk or device
is not recognised when
connecting to the USB
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system.
Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V
socket or an external power supply.
Caution: ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of
the system).
When streaming, the
sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profile.
Delete the "hands-free" connection profile to
improve streaming.

With the engine of f, the
audio system switches
off after a few minutes
of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is t\
oo
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 C\
D. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.

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

CD
Information and adviceOn a given disc, the CD player can read up to 255 MP3 files spread
over 8 levels. However, it is advisable to keep to a limit of two levels to
reduce the access time before the CD is played.
The folder structure is not observed during playback.
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 correctl\
y.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for a given 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.
The audio system can only play files with ".mp3", ".wma" or ".wav"
extensions.
A high compression level can degrade the sound quality.
Playlists accepted are types .m3u and .pls.
The system can recognise up to 5 000 files in 500 folders on 8 levels. It is advisable to restrict file names to 20 characters without using
special characters (e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displayin\
g
problems.
