The distribution (or spatialisation using the Arkamys© system), is an audio
process which allows the sound quality to be
improved according to the setting chosen,
corresponding to the position of the listeners
in the vehicle.
The audio Ambience, Treble and Bass settings are different and
independent for each sound source.
Onboard audio: Arkamys sound staging©.
With Sound Staging, the driver and the
passengers are immersed into a "sound
stage" recreating the natural atmosphere of a
theatre: truly centre stage in surround sound.
This new sensation is possible thanks to
the software installed in the radio which
processes the digital signals of the media
players (radio, CD, MP3...) without changing
the setting of the loudspeakers. This
process takes into account the features of

106
Bluetooth® audio system
the passenger compartment for optimum
performance.
The Arkamys
© software installed in your audio
system processes the digital signals of all
the media players (radio, CD, MP3...) and
makes it possible to recreate a natural sound
setting, with a harmonious placement of the
instruments and voices in space, facing the
passengers, positioned at the height of the
windscreen.
Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning your audio system.
There is a difference in sound quality
between the different audio sources (radio,
CD, etc.).
To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different sound
sources, which can generate audible differences
when changing source (radio, CD, etc.).
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position,
select the musical ambience "None" and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD
mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the settings for treble and
bass, the ambience setting is deselected.
When changing the ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset to zero.
Choosing an ambience imposes settings for
treble and bass. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.
Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.
When changing the balance setting,
distribution is deselected.
Choosing a distribution setting imposes a
balance setting. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.
Modify the balance or distribution settings to
obtain the desired sound quality.

station gradually deteriorates or the stored
stations are not working (no sound, 87.5 Mhz
is displayed, etc.).
1.The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
Activate the RDS mode and start a new search
for the station so that the system can check
whether a stronger transmitter is available in the
geographic area.
2.The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) block reception,
including in RDS tracking mode.This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
3.The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for
example when going through an automatic car
wash or in an underground car park).
Have the antenna checked by the network
PEUGEOT.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2
seconds in radio
mode.
During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS
searches for another frequency giving better
reception of the station.
Switch off the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffic announcement (TA) is displayed. I
do not receive any traffic information.
The radio station does not broadcast traffic
information.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
The stored stations are not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed, etc.).
An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND button to return to the
waveband on which the stations are stored.

12V socket or an external power supply.
Ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of

When the engine is switched off, the audio
system operating time depends on the battery
charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio system is
overheated" appears on the display.
In order to protect the installation if the
surrounding temperature is too high, the audio
system switches to an automatic thermal
protection mode leading to a reduction of the
volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.
