"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 "T
raffic info" function in the
route settings list (None, Manual or Automatic).
I am receiving a "Danger zone" alert which 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.
►

W
ait 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.
►

W
ait 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 radio station
being listened to gradually deteriorates or
the station presets are not working (e.g.
no
sound, "87.5" MHz is displayed).
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 damaged (e.g.

when
going through a car wash or in an underground
car park). ►

Have the aerial checked by a dealer
.
The surrounding area (e.g. hill, building, tunnel,
underground car park, etc.) is blocking reception,
including in RDS tracking mode.
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.
►
Press "Update list" in the "Radio stations"
secondary menu.
Media
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

►

Delete the files supplied with the memory
stick and limit the number of sub-folders in the
file structure on the memory stick.
There may be an extended pause after
inserting a USB stick.

There is a difference in sound quality
between audio sources.
To allow for optimal listening quality, the sound
settings can be tailored to different audio
sources, which can generate audible differences
when changing source.

12► Check that the sound settings are appropriate
to the sources listened to. W e recommend
setting the sound functions (Bass, Treble,
Balance) to the middle position, setting the
musical ambience to "None", setting loudness
correction to "Active" in USB mode and "Inactive"
in Radio mode.
►

In all cases, after applying sound settings,
adjust the volume level on the portable device (to
a high level) first.

Then adjust the volume level
on the audio system.
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 the vehicle’
s engine to increase the
charge of the battery.
The date and time cannot be set.
Date and time settings are only available if

Android Auto smartphone connection
Connecting just one Android Auto smartphone
can be carried out either by USB cable or using
a wireless connection.
First install the "Android Auto"
application via "Play Store" on your
smartphone.
The "Android Auto" function requires a
compatible smartphone.
If the device fails to connect, refer to the
Android Auto website to check that the device
is compatible with this function.
If the problem persists, delete all saved
connections on the smartphone and on the
system before attempting a new connection.
To ensure an optimum wireless connection,
we recommend avoiding placing your
smartphone too close to other Wi-Fi networks
to which it can connect automatically.
The cable connection requires that you
deactivate the Android Auto wireless function,
in the Settings menu of the "Android Auto"
application of your smartphone.
Connect the smartphone to the system
using the USB socket compatible with
Mirror Screen
®.
Android Auto is automatically launched a few
seconds after the USB connection has been
established. A validation procedure on the
smartphone has to be followed for the first
connection, with the vehicle stationary.
The smartphone charges when connected by the
USB cable.
The cable connection allows you to avoid
disconnections, especially when passing through
toll booths.
Only one USB socket enables the Mirror
Screen® connection (Android Auto); refer
to the "Ease of use and comfort - Fittings"
section.
It is recommended that you use the device's
original USB cables, preferably with a short
cable to ensure optimum performance.
The wireless connection of an Android Auto
smartphone can be initiated from the " My
Devices " menu.
First activate the smartphone’s Android Auto
®
wireless function, in the Settings menu of the
"Android Auto" application of your smartphone.
Press the "Settings" application.
In the list, select the "Connectivity" tab.
Select "My Devices " to display the device
to be connected to Android Auto.
If the device has never been connected to the
system before, it will have to be paired (refer to
the "Bluetooth
® connection" section).
The system detects if the smartphone is
compatible with Android Auto and offers to
connect to it following the pairing process. If the device has already been connected to the
system via Bluetooth
®, select the device settings
from the list of known devices and choose
Android Auto as the wireless connection mode.
The subsequent automatic connection of the
smartphone requires activation of Bluetooth
® on
your device.
As soon as the connection is established, press this button to display the " Android
Auto" interface.
To initiate the smartphone voice commands, press and hold the steering-
mounted control button.
