USB port
Insert the USB memory stick in the USB port or
connect the USB device to the USB port using
a suitable cable (not supplied).To protect the system, do not use a USB
hub.
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.
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.
Auxiliary socket (AUX)
(depending on model / depending on
equipment)
This source is only available if "Auxiliary input"
has been selected in the audio settings.
Connect the portable device (MP3
player, etc.)
to the auxiliary Jack socket using an audio
cable (not supplied).
First, adjust the volume on your portable device
(to a high level). Then adjust the volume of your
audio system.
Display and management of the controls are
via the portable device.
If "DAB-FM Tracking" is activated, there
is a difference of a few seconds when the
system switches to FM analogue radio
with sometimes a variation in volume.
When the digital signal quality becomes
good, the system automatically switches
back to "DAB".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is
not available on FM, or if the "DAB-FM
Tracking" is not activated, the sound will
cut out while the digital signal is too weak.
