QUESTION SOLUTION ANSWER
The TA box is ticked. However, certain traffi c jams along the route are not indicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receivethe traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (displaying of the traffi c information symbols on the map).
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways ...) are listed forthe traffi c information.
The time taken to calculate a route sometimes seems longer than usual.
This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the traffi c information available.
The performance of the system may slow down tempor arily if a CD is being copied onto the Jukebox at the same time as a route is being calculated.
Wait until the CD has been copied or stop the copying before starting the guidance function.
The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to receive more than 3 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely. Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least 3 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select GPS coverage).
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel. ..) or the weather,the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the conditions of reception ofthe GPS signal.
The route is not calculated successfully. The exclusion criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of toll roads on a motorway with tolls). Check the exclusion criteria.
There is a long waiting time after inserting a CD. When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take a few seconds. This phenomenon is normal.

FM WAVEBAND PREFERENCES
The external environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks) may block reception, includi ng in RDS mode. This is a normal effect of the way in which radio waves are transmitted and does not indicate any failure of the audio equipment.
RDS
The RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue l istening to the same station by automatic retuning to alternative freque ncies. However, in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be assured throughout the country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.
