Voice commands
Steering-mounted controls
Voice commands:
Voice commands can be issued from any
screen page after briefly pressing the "Voice
commands" button, located on the steering
wheel or at the end of the lighting control stalk
(depending on equipment), as long as there is no
telephone call in progress.
To ensure that voice commands are always recognised by the system, please
observe the following recommendations:
– speak in a normal tone without breaking up words or raising your voice.– always wait for the "beep" (audible signal) before speaking.
– for best operation, we recommend closing the windows and sunroof (depending on version) to avoid any external interference.– before issuing a voice command, ask any other passengers to refrain from speaking.
First steps
Example of a "voice command" for navigation:
"Navigate to address, 11 Regent Street,
London" .
Example of a "voice command" for the radio and
media:
"Play artist, Madonna".
Example of a "voice command" for the
telephone:
"Call David Miller".
The voice commands, with a choice of 12 languages (English, French, Italian,
Spanish, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Polish,
Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Brazilian), are made
using the language previously chosen and set
in the system.
For some voice commands, there are
alternative synonyms.
Example: Guide to / Navigate to / Go to / ...
The voice commands in Arabic for: "Navigate
to address" and "Display POI in the city" are
not available.
Information - Using the
system
Press the Push To Talk button and tell me what you'd like after the tone. Remember
you can interrupt me at any time by pressing this
button. If you press it again while I'm waiting for
you to speak, it'll end the conversation. If you
need to start over, say "cancel". If you want to
undo something, say "undo". And to get
information and tips at any time, just say "help".
If you ask to me do something and there's some
information missing that I need, I'll give you
some examples or take you through it step by
step. There's more information available in
"novice" mode. You can set the dialogue mode to
"expert" when you feel comfortable.

FM-DAB tracking
“DAB" does not cover 100% of the

there may be a time lag of a few seconds
when the system switches to "FM" analogue
radio, and in some cases a change in volume.
When the digital signal quality is restored, the
system automatically changes back to "DAB".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is
not available on “FM” (“ FM-DAB" greyed
out), or "FM-DAB auto tracking" is not
activated, the sound will cut out while the
digital signal is too weak.

The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory); this operation 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.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition
is switched off or a USB memory stick is
connected. The lists are memorised: if they are
not modified, the subsequent loading time will
be shorter.

The audio equipment will only play audio files
with ".wma", ".aac", ".flac", ".ogg" and ".mp3"
file extensions and with a bit rate of between 32
Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
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 32, 44 and
48 kHz.
It is advisable to restrict file names to 20
characters, without using special characters (e.g.
" " ? . ; ù) so as to avoid any reading or display
problems.
Use only USB keys in FAT32 format (File
Allocation Table).
It is recommended that the original USB
cable for the portable device is used.
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 is 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.

not working.
The audible warning is not active or the volume
is too low.
► Activate the audible warning in the "Navigation" menu and check the voice volume
in the sound settings.
The system does not suggest a detour
around an incident on the route.
The route settings do not take account of TMC
messages.
► Configure the "Traffic info " function in the route settings list (Without, Manual or
Automatic).
I receive a warning about a "Danger area"
that is not on my route.
As well as providing guided navigation, the
system announces all "Danger areas" positioned
in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may
provide an alert for "Danger areas" located on
nearby or parallel roads.
► Zoom the map to show the exact location of the "Danger area". You can select "On the
route" to stop receiving warnings or decrease the
warning duration.
Certain traffic jams along the route are not
indicated in real time.
On starting, a few minutes may elapse before
the system begins to receive traffic information.
► Wait until traffic information is being received correctly (traffic information icons shown on the
map). In certain countries, only major routes
(motorways, etc.) are listed for the traffic
information.
This is perfectly normal. The system is
dependent on the traffic information available.
The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, GPS initialisation may take up to
3 minutes to receive more than 4 satellites
correctly.
► Wait until the system has started up completely so that there is GPS coverage by at least 4 satellites.Depending on the geographical environment
(tunnel, etc.) or the weather, the conditions of
reception of the GPS signal may vary.
This behaviour is normal. The system is
dependent on the GPS signal reception
conditions.
My navigation is no longer connected.
During start-up and in certain geographical
areas, the connection may be unavailable.
► Check that the online services are activated (settings, contract).
Radio
The reception quality of the tuned radio
station gradually deteriorates or the station
presets are not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz
is displayed, etc.).
The vehicle is too far from the selected station’s
transmitter, or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
► Activate the "RDS" function by means of the short-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in
the geographical area.
The aerial is missing or has been damaged
(for example while entering a car wash or
underground car park).
► Have the aerial checked by a dealer
.The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,

This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is
not indicative of an audio system malfunction.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
stations received.
The name of the radio station changes.
The station is no longer received or its name has
changed in the list.
Some radio stations send other information
in place of their name (the title of the song for
example).
The system interprets these details as the station
name.
