QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audiosources (radio, CD...).
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings
(Bass, Treble, Ambience, loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, which mayresult in audible differences when changing source (radio, CD...).
Check that the audio settings (Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to adjust audio settings(Bass, Treble, Front-Rear balance, Left-Right balance)
to the middle position, select the musical ambience
and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position
in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When chan
ging 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. Modifyingone without the other is only possible with a personalised ambience. Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
The qualit
y of receptionof the radio station
listened to graduallydeteriorates or the stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 MHz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too
far from the transmitter used by the station listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travellin
g.
Activate the RDS function 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...) 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 dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route. The
following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.
