The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,
including in RDS tracking 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 CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1
