QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound quality between the
different audio sources. For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Loudness,
Ambience, Treble, Bass and Volume can be adapted to the different
sound sources, which may result in audible differences when
changing source. Check that the audio settings for Loudness,
Ambience, Treble, Bass and Volume are adapted
to the sources listened to. Adjust the Balance,
Treble and Bass to the middle position, select the
"None" musical ambience and set the loudness
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or
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.

RDS
Short procedure
Long procedureThe external environment (hills,
buildings, tunnels, basement car
parks, ...) may block reception,
including in RDS mode. This is a
normal effect of the way in which radio
waves are transmitted and does not
indicate any failure of the audio system. Press the "MENU" button.
Select " Audio functions ".
Press OK.
Select the " FM waveband
preferences " function.
Press OK.
Select " RDS".
Press OK , RDS is displayed in the
screen.
In "
Radio " mode, press the OK button to
activate or deactivate RDS directly.
RDS, if activated, enables 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 country as radio stations
do not cover 100 % of the territory. This
explains the loss of reception of a station
that can occur during a journey. If RDS is not available, the RDS symbol
appears barred in the screen.

auxiliary Jack socket, depending on model.Insert a USB memory stick into the USB port
or connect a USB peripheral device to the USB
port using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system changes automatically to "USB"
source.
The system creates playlists
(temporary memory), which can take
from a few seconds to several minutes
on the first connection.
Reducing the number of non-music
files and the number of folders reduces
this waiting time. Playlists are updated
every time a new USB memory stick is
connected.

function.
Press this button to select the play
mode.
Press this button to confirm.Play mode

The CD player can play files with .mp3, .wma,
.wav and .aac file extensions, with a bit rate of
of 32 to 320 Kbps.
It also supports TAG mode (ID3 tag,
WMA TAG).
Other file types (mp4, ...) may be played.
Files of the ".wma" type should be to
the wma 9
standard.
The sampling rates supported are 11, 22, 44
and 48 KHz.
File names should have less than
20
characters, avoiding special characters
(e.g.: " ? ; ù) so as to avoid any reading or
display problems. In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or
CDRW, the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet file
format is recommended when recording.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may
not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording
format is always used for an individual 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 format is recommended.
Information and advice
Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32
(File Allocation Table).
It is recommended that you use
genuine Apple
® USB cables for correct
operation.

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 in volume or CD play
stopping. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The preset stations do
not
function (no sound,
87.5 Mhz is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND AST button to return to the
waveband (FM, FM2, DAB, AM) on which the
stations are preset.
The traffic announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffic
information. The radio station is not part of the regional traffic information
network.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
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 power ful
transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, underground car parks...)
block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a fault in the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through an automatic car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a franchised 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.
