Press "OK" to confirm.
Radio reception may be affected by the
use of electrical equipment not approved
by the Brand, such as a USB charger
connected to the 12 V socket.
The exterior environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may
block reception, including in RDS mode.
This phenomenon is perfectly normal in the
context of radio wave transmission, and
in no way indicative of an audio system
malfunction.
Presetting a station
Select a radio station or frequency.
(refer to the corresponding section)
Press "Presets ".
Make a long press on one of the buttons
to preset the station.
Activating/Deactivating RDS
Press Radio Media to display the main
page.
Press the "OPTIONS " button to access the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings".
Select "General".
Activate/deactivate "Station follow ".
Press "OK" to confirm.
RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by
automatically retuning to alternative
frequencies. However, in certain conditions,
RDS station tracking may not be possible
nationwide, as radio stations do not always
cover the entire country. This can explain the
loss of reception of a station during a journey.
Displaying text information
The "Radio Text" function displays information transmitted by the radio
station relating to the station or the currently
playing song.
Press Radio Media to display the main
page.
Press the "OPTIONS " button to access the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings".
Select "General".
Activate/deactivate "Display radio text".
Press "OK" to confirm.
Play TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement) function gives priority to TA alert messages. To
operate, this function needs good reception of
a radio station that carries this type of
message. While traffic information is being
broadcast, the current media is automatically
interrupted so that the TA message can be
heard. Normal play of the media previously
playing is resumed at the end of the
message.
Select "Announcements".
Activate / Deactivate "Traffic announcement".
Press "OK" to confirm.
DAB (Digital Audio
Broadcasting) radio
Terrestrial Digital Radio
Digital radio provides higher quality
reception.

12Select the audio source.
Press "Band" to select the "DAB" waveband.
FM-DAB tracking
“DAB" does not cover 100% of the
country.
When the digital radio signal is poor,
“FM-DAB
auto tracking" enables you to
continue listening to the same station by
automatically switching to the corresponding
FM analogue station (if there is one).
Press Radio Media to display the main
page.
Press the "OPTIONS " button to access the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings".
Select "General".
Activate/deactivate "Station follow ".
Press on "OK".
If “FM-DAB auto tracking" is activated,
there may be a time lag of a few seconds
when the system switches to "FM" analogue
radio, and in some cases a change in volume.
When the digital signal quality is restored, the
system automatically changes back to "DAB".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is
not available on “FM” (“ FM-DAB" greyed
out), or "FM-DAB auto tracking" is not
activated, the sound will cut out while the
digital signal is too weak.

The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory); this operation can take from a
few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition
is switched off or a USB memory stick is
connected. The lists are memorised: if they are
not modified, the subsequent loading time will
be shorter.
Auxiliary socket (AUX)
(depending on model / depending on equipment)
Connect a portable device (MP3 player,
etc.) to the auxiliary jack socket using an
audio cable (not supplied).
This source is only available if "Auxiliary input"
has been selected in the audio settings.
First adjust the volume on your portable device
(to a high level). Then adjust the volume on your

To modify the classification used, return to the
first level of the menu then select the desired
classification (playlists for example) and
confirm to go down through the menu to the
desired track.
The version of software in the audio system may
not be compatible with the generation of your
Apple
® player.
Information and advice
The system supports USB mass storage devices, BlackBerry® devices or Apple®
players via USB ports. The adapter cable is
not supplied.
Device management is done by the audio
system controls.
Other peripherals, not recognised on
connection, must be connected to the
auxiliary socket using a Jack cable (not

The audio equipment will only play audio files
with ".wma", ".aac", ".flac", ".ogg" and ".mp3"
file extensions and with a bit rate of between 32
Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other file types (".mp4", etc.) can be read.
Files of the ".wma" type should be to the wma 9
standard.
The sampling rates supported are 32, 44 and
48 kHz.
It is advisable to restrict file names to 20
characters, without using special characters (e.g.
" " ? . ; ù) so as to avoid any reading or display
problems.
Use only USB keys in FAT32 format (File
Allocation Table).
It is recommended that the original USB
cable for the portable device is used.
In order to be able to play a burned CDR or
CDRW, select standards ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or
Joliet if possible when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may not
be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same burning
standard is always used on an individual disc,
with the lowest speed possible (4x maximum) for
the best acoustic quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the
Joliet standard is recommended.
