The distribution (or spatialisation using the Arkamys© system),©
is an audio process which allows the sound quality to be improved
according to the setting chosen, corresponding to the position of the
listeners in the vehicle.
AUDIO SETTINGS
Select and confi rm " Other settings…"
to display the next setting in the list. The Ambience, Treble and Bass audio settin
gs are different andindependent for each sound source.
Arkamys©: in a vehicle, the sound quality suffers from the physicalconstraints imposed by the safety standards and the requirement
to optimise the space available in the passenger compartment. Speakers are fi tted in the doors, which can result for the driver and passenger in the sound being too one-sided, either "all on the right"or "all on the left".
The Arkam
ys© software installed in your audio system processes©
the digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) and recreates a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement
of instruments and voices in the space facing passengers, at the height of the windscreen.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audiosources (radio, CD...).
For optimum sound qualit
y, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble,
Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources,
which may result in audible differences when changing source (radio,CD...).
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position, select the musical ambience "None" and set theloudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the
settings for treble and
bass, the ambience
setting is deselected.
When chan
ging the
ambience setting, treble and bass are reset to zero.
Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass. Modifying
one without the other is not possible. Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
When chan
ging the
balance setting, distribution is deselected.
Choosing a distribution setting imposes a balance setting. Modifying one
without the other is not possible. Modify the balance setting or the distribution setting to obtain the desired sound quality. The
following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.

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

gine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio s
ystem switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge.

The message "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is toohigh, 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.
