QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5
MHz is displayed,
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 by means of the
upper band to enable the system to check
whether there is a more power ful transmitter in
the geographical 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 a car wash or into
an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a dealer.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
received stations.
The name of the radio station changes. The station is not received or has changed its
name in the list.
Press the round arrow on the "List" tab of the
"Radio" page.
Some radio stations send other information
in place of their name (the title of the song for

Telephone
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
I cannot connect my Bluetooth telephone. The telephone's Bluetooth function may be switched off or the telephone may not be
visible.Check that your telephone has Bluetooth
switched on.
Check in the telephone settings that it is
"visible to all".
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with
the system. You can check the compatibility of your

Android Auto and CarPlay do not work. Android Auto and CarPlay may not activate if
the USB cables are of poor quality.Use authentic USB cables to ensure
compatibility.
The volume of the telephone connected in
Bluetooth mode is inaudible. The sound depends on both the system and
the telephone.Increase the volume of the audio system, to
maximum if required, and increase the volume
of the telephone if necessary.
Ambient noise affects the quality of the
telephone call.
Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows,
reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, etc.).
The contacts are not listed in alphabetical
o r d e r. Some telephones offer display options.
Depending on the settings chosen, contacts

the different audio sources. To allow for optimal listening quality, the
audio settings can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source.Check that the audio settings are adapted
to the sources listened to. Adjust the audio
functions to the middle position.
When the engine is off, the system switches off
after several minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the system's
operating time depends on the state of charge of
the battery.

goes into energy economy mode and switches off
to maintain an adequate charge in the battery.Start the engine to increase the charge of the
battery.

in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS
station may not be assured throughout the
entire country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the loss of
reception of the station during a journey.
