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 state of
charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
prevent discharging 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 too high, the audio
system switches to an automatic thermal
protection mode leading to a reduction of the
volume.Switch the audio system off for a few minutes
to allow the system to cool.

QUESTION

There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, USB, etc.). To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source (radio, USB,
e t c .) .Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted
to the sources listened to. It is advisable
to set the audio functions (Bass, Treble,
Front-Rear Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the
middle position, select the musical ambience
"None" and set the loudness correction to the
"Inactive" position in radio mode.
The preset stations do not function (no sound,
87.5
MHz is displayed, etc.). An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND 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 reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the station presets are
not working (no sound, 87.5

e t c .) . The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
Activate the RDS function to allow the system
to see if a more power ful transmitter is within
the geographic area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) blocks 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 aerial checked by a 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.Switch off the RDS function if the phenomenon
is too frequent and always on the same route.
