DAB / FM station tracking
"DAB" does not have 100% coverage of
the country.
When the digital signal is weak,
"DAB / FM auto tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the
corresponding analogue FM station (if it
ex i st s).
When the "DAB
/ FM auto tracking" is
active, the DAB station will be selected
automatically.
Press the MENU button.
Select " Multimedia " and confirm.
Select " DAB
/ FM auto tracking"
and confirm.
If "DAB
/ FM auto tracking" tracking is
enabled, there is a lag of a few seconds
when the system switches to the analogue
FM station sometimes with a change in
volume. If the "DAB" station you are listening to
is not available on FM ("
DAB/FM" option
struck out), or if "DAB / FM auto tracking"
is not on, the sound will be cut when the
digital signal is too weak.
Media
USB port
To protect the system, do not use a USB
hub. Any additional equipment connected to
the system must conform to the standard
of the product or standard IEC 60950 -1.
Insert the USB memory stick into the USB port
or connect the USB device to the USB port
using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system changes automatically to "USB"
source. The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
Playlists are updated every time a new USB
memory stick is connected.
When the USB port is used, the portable
device charges automatically.
Play mode
The play modes available are:
- No rmal: the tracks are played in order,
depending on the classification of the
selected files.
-
Ra
ndom: the tracks in an album or folder
are played in a random order.
-

Information and advice
The CD player can play files with “.mp3”,
“.wma”, “.wav” and “.aac” file extensions, with a
bit rate of 32 to 320 Kbps.
It also supports TAG mode (ID3 tag, WMA
TAG) .
No other file types (“.mp”4, etc.) can be read.
Files of the ".wma" type should be to the wma
9 standard.
The sampling rates supported are 11, 22, 44
and 48 kHz. No other file types (“.mp4”, etc.) can be read.
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 fewer 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 burned CDR or
CDRW, select standards ISO 9660 level 1, 2, or
Joliet, if possible, when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may
not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same burning
standard be always used on an individual disc,
with the lowest speed possible (4x maximum)
for the best acoustic quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the
Joliet standard is recommended.
To protect the system, do not use a USB hub.
Use only USB memory sticks formatted
FAT 32 (File Allocation Table).
Via the USB port, the system can play audio
files with the extension ".mp3”, “.wma”, “.wav”,
“.cbr”, “.vbr" with a bit rate of 32 to 320 Kbps. It is recommended that you use genuine
Apple
® USB cables for correct operation.
Telephone
Pairing a Bluetooth®
telephone
As a safety measure and because they
require prolonged attention on the part
of the driver, the operations for pairing
of the Bluetooth mobile telephone with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your
audio system must be carried out with the
vehicle stationary and the ignition on.
Activate the telephone's Bluetooth
function and ensure that it is "visible to all"
(telephone configuration).
The services available depend on
the network, the SIM card and the
compatibility of the Bluetooth telephone
used.
Check the instructions for your telephone
and with your ser vice provider for the
ser vices to which you have access.

QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
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. Turn the ignition on to increase the charge of
the battery.
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 the CD play stopping.Switch the audio system off for a few
minutes
to allow the system to cool.
Radio
QUESTION RESPONSESOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, CD, 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, CD,
e t c .) .Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience and Loudness) are adapted
to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Balance and Left-Right Balance) to the middle
position, select the musical ambience "None"
and set the loudness correction to the "Active"
position in CD mode or 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 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 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.) block 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.

Press "OK" to confirm.
Radio reception may be affected by the
use of electrical equipment not approved
by the Brand, such as a USB charger
connected to the 12
V socket.
The exterior environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.)
may block reception, including in RDS
mode. This behaviour is normal in the
propagation of radio waves and does not
indicate any failure of the audio system.

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
