Select the audio source.
Press "Band" to select the "DAB" waveband.
FM-DAB tracking
“DAB" does not cover 100% of the
country.
When the digital radio signal is poor,
“FM-DAB auto tracking" enables you to continue listening to the same station by
automatically switching to the corresponding
FM analogue station (if there is one).
Press Radio Media to display the main
page.
Press the "OPTIONS " button to access the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings".
Select "General".
Activate/deactivate "Station follow ".
Press on "OK".
If “FM-DAB auto tracking" is activated,
there may be a time lag of a few seconds
when the system switches to "FM" analogue
radio, and in some cases a change in volume.
When the digital signal quality is restored, the
system automatically changes back to "DAB".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is
not available on “FM” (“ FM-DAB" greyed
out), or "FM-DAB auto tracking" is not
activated, the sound will cut out while the
digital signal is too weak.
Media
USB socket
Insert the USB memory stick into the USB socket or connect the USB device to the
USB socket using a suitable cable (not supplied).
To protect the system, do not use a USB hub.
The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory); this operation can take from a
few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition
is switched off or a USB memory stick is
connected. The lists are memorised: if they are
not modified, the subsequent loading time will
be shorter.
Auxiliary socket (AUX)

Connect a portable device (MP3 player, etc.) to the auxiliary jack socket using an
audio cable (not supplied).

The audio equipment will only play audio files
with ".wma", ".aac", ".flac", ".ogg" and ".mp3"
file extensions and with a bit rate of between 32
Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other file types (".mp4", etc.) can be read.
Files of the ".wma" type should be to the wma 9
standard.
The sampling rates supported are 32, 44 and
48 kHz.
It is advisable to restrict file names to 20
characters, without using special characters (e.g.
" " ? . ; ù) so as to avoid any reading or display
problems.
Use only USB keys in FAT32 format (File
Allocation Table).
It is recommended that the original USB
cable for the portable device is used.
In order to be able to play a burned CDR or
CDRW, select standards ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or
Joliet if possible when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may not
be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same burning
standard is always used on an individual disc,
with the lowest speed possible (4x maximum) for
the best acoustic quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the
Joliet standard is recommended.

Pairing a Bluetooth®
telephone
As a safety measure and because it
requires sustained attention by the driver,
the pairing of a Bluetooth mobile telephone
with the Bluetooth hands-free system of your
audio system must be done with the vehicle
stationary and the ignition on.
Activate the Bluetooth function on the telephone and ensure that it is "visible to
all" (telephone configuration).
Procedure from the telephone

Bluetooth mode is inaudible.
The volume depends on both the system and the
telephone.
► Increase the volume of the audio system, to maximum if required, and increase the volume of
the telephone if necessary.
Ambient noise affects the quality of the
telephone call.
► Reduce the ambient noise level (close windows, reduce ventilation, slow down, etc.).
Some contacts are duplicated in the list.
The options for synchronising contacts are:
synchronise the contacts on the SIM card, the
contacts on the telephone, or both. When both

► Modify the balance setting or the distribution setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
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.
► Check that the sound settings are appropriate to the sources listened to. We 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
