QUESTIONRESPONSE SOLUTION
When changing the balance setting, distribution
is deselected. Choosing a distribution setting imposes a
balance setting. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.Modify the balance setting or the distribution
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed ...).The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.Activate the RDS mode and start a new search
for the station so that the system can check
whether a stronger transmitter is available in the
geographic area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks...) block 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 antenna checked by the
CITROËN
network .
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.Switch off 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 information. The radio station does not broadcast traffic
information.Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
The stored stations are not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected.Le CD est
protégé par un système de protection anti-
piratage non reconnu par l'autoradio.Press the BAND button to return to the
waveband on which the stations are stored.

QUESTIONRESPONSE SOLUTION
With the engine off, 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.Turn the ignition on to increase charge of the
battery.
The message "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the
surrounding temperature is too 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 CD.Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
