QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The
 
quality   of   reception   of  
t

he radio station listened
to
 
gradually   deteriorates  
o

r 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  
l

istened   to   or   there   is   no   transmitter   in   the   geographical   area  
t

hrough   which   the   vehicle   is   travelling.Activate
  the   "RDS"   function   by   means   of   the  
s

hort-cut   menu   to   enable   the   system   to   check  
w

hether   there   is   a   more   power ful   transmitter   in  
t

he   geographical   area.

b

lock   reception,   including   in   RDS   mode.This
  phenomenon   is   normal   and   does   not   indicate  
a

  fault   with   the   audio   system.
The
  aerial   is   absent   or   has   been   damaged   (for   example   when   going  
t

hrough   a   car   wash   or   into   an   underground   car   park).Have
  the   aerial   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer.
I
 
cannot   find   some   radio  
s

tations in the list of

m

ounted   controls   to   update   the   list   of   stations

Some
  radio   stations   send   other   information   in   place   of   their   name  
(

the   title   of   the   song   for   example).
