FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2
seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off,
the audio equipment
switches off after a few
minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment 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.
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 equipment switches to an automatic thermal protection
mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of \
the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
