Radio
The
quality
of
reception
of the radio station
listened
to
gradually
deteriorates 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
travelling.
Activate
the
"RDS"
function
by
means
of
the
short-cut
menu
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
fault
with
the
audio
system.
The
aerial
is
absent
or
has
been
damaged
(for
example
when
going
through
a
car
wash
or
into
an
underground
car
park).
Have
the
aerial
checked
by
a
CITROËN
dealer.
I
cannot
find
some
radio
stations in the list of
stations
received.
The
station
is
not
received
or
its

has
changed
in

list.
Some
radio
stations
send
other
information
in
place
of
their
name
(the
title
of
the
song
for
example).
The
system
interprets
this
information
as
the

of
the

The

of
the

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 another frequency
giving
better reception of the station.Deactivate
the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too
frequent and always on the same route.
The
traffic announcement
(T
A)
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...). An
incorrect waveband is selected. Press the
band button to return to the waveband
on
which the stations are stored.
