QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
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.
Switch on 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...) blo\
ck 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 PEUGEOT 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. Switch off 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 SRC button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2) on which the stations are stored.

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.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio equipment.
- 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.
- Due to their quality level, certain writeable CDs will not be played by the audio system.
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 settings (bass, treble, ambiance) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambiance.
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 t\
oo 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 C\
D.
Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.
