Notes on radio reception
Your radio will be subject to certain
phenomena that are not encoun-
tered by domestic systems.
The reception of AM and FM signals
may suffer from interference, which
is caused by the nature and propa-
gation of the signals and does not
reflect on the quality of your radio
installation.
In AM, the reception may be affected
when passing under power lines or
bridges, or when travelling through
tunnels.
In FM mode, the reception may be
affected by the distance from the
station transmitter, the reflecting of
signals off obstacles (mountains,
hills, tower blocks) and radio blacks-
pots (no coverage from the station
transmitter).
Selection of radio source
Press button D to select the source.
Selection of frequencies and
memory banks
Press button E successively to go
through the memory banks FM1, FM2
and FM3, for the FM waveband,
and the memory banks MW/LW, for
the AM waveband.
Manual search
Manual seearch is via buttons J
or M.
By keeping button J or M pressed,
you will be able to scroll through
the waveband. Scrolling will stop
as soon as you release the button.
The radio will remain tuned to the
frequency that is displayed.
Tuning sensitivity
Automatic searches can be carried
out according to two levels of sen-
sitivity :
- To capture the most powerful
transmitters, choose the local
search mode “LO” (default
option).
- To capture the weakest or most distant transmitters, choose the
sensitive search mode “DX”.
Search for a station is done first in
“LO” (local) sensitivity, then in “DX”
(distant) sensitivity.
To commence a search in sensitivity
“DX” (distant) immediately , press
twice in succession on one of the
buttons K or N.
Automatic search
A short press on one of the buttons
K or N will tune into higher or lower
radio stations respectively, within
the chosen waveband.
By keeping button K or N pressed,
you will be able to scroll through the
waveband. The scrolling will stop at
the first station it finds once the but-
ton is released.
You can also do this by means of
control 2 at the steering wheel.
If the automatic search is unable to
tune into a known frequency (per-
haps owing to very weak reception),
it is possible to search manually to
find this station.
Display and selection of a
station available in the area in
which you are travelling
Briefly press on button G to bring
up a list of stations, this is updated
every 10 minutes.
You can also update this list at

Automatic memorisation
of transmitters (Autostore
function)
In FM, if you hold down button E
for more than two seconds, your
radio will automatically memorise
the 6 strongest stations on the FM3
memory bank.
The display shows “FM AST”.
The radio memorises the 6 strong-
est transmitters, deleting the 6
previously memorised.
After the memorisation, the radio
goes directly to memory 1 of memory
bank FM3.
Note :
- If the traffic information func-
tion has been activated (see
RDS SYSTEM), the stations
offering this facility will be memo-
rised as priority.
If it is unable to memorise any new
stations, the system will retain the
previously memorised stations.
- If the system is unable to find 6 stations, the unfilled memory
slots will remain free. Recall of pre-set stations
Press button
E briefly to select the
required waveband and memory
bank.
A short press on one the pre-selec-
tion buttons 1 to 6 on the keypad P
recalls the corresponding memo-
rised station. You can also do this
using the control 3 at the steering
wheel.

appears some seconds before the
name appears.
For RDS stations, recall of a station
may prompt a search for a fre-
quency corresponding to the region
where you happen to be (see RDS
system).

Using the RDS (radio data
system) function on FM
The majority of FM radio stations
use the RDS system. The radio in
your vehicle has this system,.
The RDS system enables these
stations to transmit non-audible
data in addition to the broadcast-
ing of their programmes. The data
provides access to various functions
described in this chapter, such as:
display of the station name, inter-
mittent traffic information flashes or
automatic scanning of stations. This
enables you to continue listening to
your chosen radio station, regard-
less of the different frequencies it
uses in the regions through which
you are travelling.
Scanning of rds stations
Your radio keeps the best possible
reception by continuously looks for
any other frequencies on which the
selected radio station is broadcast,
automatically choosing the fre-
quency offering the best reception (if
the station broadcasts on more than
one transmitter or frequency.

R D S S Y S T E MRegional search mode
Some stations, when they are organ-
ised in networks, broadcast regional
programmes at certain times of day,
and national programmes at other
times.
It is possible to search :
- Either for a regional station only.
- Or across the whole network
in order to find a different pro-
gramme.

TA traffic information (traffic
announcements)
Some stations allow broadcasting,
only in FM, of these messages
thanks to the “TA” function.
You can activate the “TA” function
by pressing on button I. This allows
you, even though you are listen-
ing to another audio source or to a
radio programme not itself providing
traffic messages, to receive traffic
information flashes from an FM sta-
tion which broadcasts them.
While the messages are being
broadcast the original source is
paused and when the messages
have ended your radio will automati-
cally revert to the music programme
you were listening to.
Note :
- You have to be in FM wave
band.
- The station being listened to should indicate via the RDS
system that it broadcasts traffic
information.
- Stations organised in a network (EON) have regional transmitters
that send their own programmes:
while you are listening to one of
these stations the system will
switch automatically to a station
on the network that is broadcast-
ing traffic information.
- You can stop listening to a mes- sage by pressing button I.
Sound volume adjustment for
traffic information
The sound volume for traffic infor-
mation operates separately from
that for the rest of the system, and
can be adjusted independently.
