Radio
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
short-cut menu 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.) 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 a car wash or into
an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a dealer.
The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, the initialisation of the GPS 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 connected ser vices are
activated (settings, contract).

Playback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes). Some files supplied with the memory stick
may greatly slow down access to reading
the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the
catalogue time).Delete the files supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file
structure on the memory stick.
The CD is ejected every time or is not played. The CD is upside down, cannot be read, does not contain audio files or contains audio files of
a format not recognised by the audio system.

Media
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
stations received.
The name of the radio station changes.
The station is not received or has changed its
name in the list.

There is a long waiting period following the
insertion of a CD or connection of a USB
memory stick.Upon insertion of a new key, the system reads
a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist,
etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a
few minutes.This is per fectly normal.
The CD sound is of poor quality. The CD used in scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in
suitable conditions.
The audio settings (bass, treble, ambience) are
unsuitable. Return bass and treble settings to 0, without
selecting an ambience.

of characters.Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.

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
telephone at the Brand's website (services).
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.).
Some contacts are duplicated in the list. The options for synchronising contacts are synchronising the contacts on the SIM card,
the contacts on the telephone, or both. When
both synchronisations are selected, some
contacts may be duplicated.Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display
telephone contacts".
The contacts are not listed in alphabetical
o r d e r. Some telephones offer display options.
Depending on the settings chosen, contacts
can be transferred in a specific order.Modify the telephone directory display settings.

Settings
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
When changing the setting of treble and bass,
the equalizer setting is deselected.
When changing the equalizer setting, the treble
and bass settings are reset. The selection of an equalizer setting imposes
the settings for treble and bass and vice versa.
Modify the treble and bass or equalizer settings
to obtain the desired musical ambience.
When changing the balance setting,
distribution is deselected.
When changing the distribution setting, the
balance setting is deselected. The selection of a distribution setting imposes
the balance settings and vice versa.
Modify the balance setting or the distribution
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
There is a difference in sound quality between
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. It is recommended that
the audio settings (Bass:, Treble:, Balance)
be adjusted to the middle position, select the
"None" musical ambience and set the loudness
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode
or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
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.
The switch-off is normal: the system automatically
goes into energy economy mode and switches off
to maintain an adequate charge in the battery.Start then vehicle's engine to increase the
charge of the battery.
The date and time cannot be set. Setting of the date and time is only available
if the synchronisation with the satellites is
deactivated.Settings menu/Options/Time-Date setting.

it will only operate in your vehicle.
The display of the message Energy
