Radio
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5
MHz is displayed,
e t c .) . The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
Activate the "RDS" function by means of the
upper band to enable the system to check
whether there is a more power ful transmitter in
the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking 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 dealer.
I can not find some radio stations in the list of
received stations.
The name of the radio station changes. The station is not received or has changed its
name in the list.
Press the round arrow on the "List" tab of the
"Radio" page.
Some radio stations send other information
in place of their name (the title of the song for
example).
The system interprets these details as the
station name.

© Sound Staging.
With Sound Staging, the driver and the
passengers are immersed into a "sound
stage" recreating the natural atmosphere
of a theatre: truly centre stage in surround
sound.
This new sensation is possible thanks to
the software installed in the radio which
processes the digital signals of the media
players (radio, CD, MP3, etc.) without
changing the setting of the loudspeakers.
This process takes into account the
features of the passenger compartment
for optimum performance.
The Arkamys
© software installed in your
audio system processes the digital signals
of all the media players (radio, CD, MP3,
etc.) and makes it possible to recreate a
natural sound setting, with a harmonious
placement of the instruments and
voices in space, facing the passengers,
positioned at the height of the windscreen.
