08 MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS


CD, MP3 CD, USB PLAYER


The audio equipment will only play audio fi les with ".m4a, .m4b,
.aac, .fl ac, .ogg and .mp3" fi le extensions and with a bit rate of
between 32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
The sampling rates supported are 11, 22, 44 and 48 KHz.

It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters, without using of
special characters (e.g. : " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing and displaying
problems.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)
for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.

SOLUTION


Some contacts are
duplicated in the list. The options for synchronizing contacts are synchronizing the contacts
on the SIM card, the contacts on the telephone, or both. When both
synchronizations are selected, some contacts may be duplicated. Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display
telephone contacts".
Contacts are not shown
in alphabetical order. Some telephones offer display options. Depending on the settings
chosen, contacts can be transferred in a specifi c order. Modify the display setting in the telephone
directory.
The system does not
receive SMS text messages. The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the
system.
The CD is ejected
automatically or is not
played by the player. The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any
audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.
Le CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the
player.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not
recognised by the audio system.

- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the
right way up.

- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot
be played if it is too damaged.

- Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: consult the advice in the "Audio" section.

- The audio system's CD player does not play
DVDs.

- Some recorded CDs will not be played by
the audio system because they are not of the
correct quality.

There is a long waiting
period following the insertion
of a CD or connection of a
USB memory stick. When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of
data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a
few minutes. This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is
poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable
conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting
an ambience.

ANSWER



SOLUTION


With the engine off, the
system switches off after
a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my
iPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at the
same time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it is possible that it
connects streaming and telephone functions simultaneously. The streaming
function takes the place of the USB function which is then not useable. Two possible solutions (depending on the iPhone):


- disconnect then reconnect the USB
connection (the USB function then takes the
place of the streaming function),

- go to the "Bluetooth functions"\"List of the
paired peripherals" menu, disconnect the
iPhone then reconnect it in "Hands-free
mode" only.

08 TRIP COMPUTER


Each press of the button, located at the end of the
wiper stalk, displays the different trip computer
information in succession, depending on the screen.


- the "vehicle " tab with:



the range, the current fuel consumption and
the distance remaining to the destination or the
Stop & Start time counter,

- the "1" tab (trip 1) with:



the average speed, the average consumption
and the distance travelled calculated over
trip " 1
",

- the "2" tab (trip 2) with the same information for
a second trip.

Zero reset
When the required trip is displayed, press the control
for more than two seconds.

Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, based on the average fuel consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in
the vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
A FEW DEFINITIONS

Current fuel consumption:
only calculated and displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

Average fuel consumption:
this is the average fuel consumption since
the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance travelled:
calculated since the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance remaining to the destination:
calculated with reference
to the fi nal destination, entered by the user. If guidance is activated,
the navigation system calculates it as a current value.

Average speed:
this is the average speed calculated since the last trip
computer zero reset (ignition on).







Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates
the time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.

ANSWER



SOLUTION


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 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 failure of the audio equipment.
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.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffi c announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffi c
information. The radio station does not broadcast traffi c information. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c
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
(AM, FM1, FM2, DAB * ) on which the stations are
stored.

A telephone connects
automatically,
disconnecting another
telephone. Automatic connection overrides manual connection. Modify the telephone settings to remove automatic
connection.
An iPod is not recognised
when connecting to the
USB port. The iPod is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB. Connect the iPod to the AUX Jack socket using a
suitable cable (not supplied).
The hard disk or device
is not recognised when
connecting to the USB
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system. Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V
socket or an external power supply.

Caution
: ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of
the system).

When streaming, the sound
cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le. Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le
to improve streaming.
In "Random all" play,
not all of the tracks are
played. In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up
to 999 tracks.
With the engine off, the
audio system switches
off after a few minutes
of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode
leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes
to allow the system to cool.
