Frequently asked questions
The following information puts together the answers to the most frequently asked questions 
concerning your audio system. QUESTION RESPONSESOLUTION
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 
in volume or the CD play 
stopping.Switch the audio system off 
for a few minutes to allow the 
system to cool.
