Activate the "RDS" function in the upper bar
to enable the system to check whether there is
a more powerful transmitter in the geographical
area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,
including in RDS mode.
This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is
not indicative of an audio system malfunction.

To ensure that voice commands are always recognised by the system, please
follow these recommendations:
–
use natural language in a normal tone
without breaking up words or raising your
voice.
–
always wait for the "beep" (audible signal)
before speaking.

for best results, closing the windows and
sunroof is recommended, to avoid extraneous
interference (depending on version).
–
before issuing a voice command, ask any
other passengers to refrain from speaking.

The voice commands, with a choice of 17 languages (Arabic, Brazilian, Czech,
Danish, Dutch, English, Farsi, French,
German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish,

previously chosen and set in the system.
