QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
Certain
traffic jams along
t
he route are not indicated
in
real
time. On
starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive
t
he traffic information. Wait
until the traffic information is being received
c
orrectly (display of the traffic information icons
o
n the map).
The
filters are too restrictive. Modify
the settings.
In
certain countries, only major routes (motor ways...) are listed for
t
he traffic information. This
phenomenon is normal. The system is
d
ependent on the traffic information available.
The altitude is not
displayed. On
starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to
r
eceive more than 4 satellites correctly.Wait
until the system has started up completely so
t
hat there is GPS coverage by at least 4 satellites.
Depending
on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the
w

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The
quality of reception of
t
he radio station listened
to
gradually deteriorates
o
r 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
l
istened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area
t
hrough which the vehicle is travelling.Activate
the "RDS" function by means of the
s
hort-cut menu to enable the system to check
w
hether there is a more power ful transmitter in
t
he geographical area.
The
environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...)
b
lock 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
t
hrough a car wash or into an underground car park).Have
the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
