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 adjust
audio settin
gs (bass, treble, Front-Rear balance,
Left-Right balance) to the middle position, select
the musical ambience and set the loudnesscorrection 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 only possible with a personalised ambience. 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 the "driver" distribution setting imposes a balance setting. 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.

itter 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 dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Sound cut-outs of 1 to2 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.

An iPod is not recognised
when connecting to the
USB port.The iPod is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB.
Th
e hard disk or deviceis not recognised whenconnecting to the USBport.
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 toimprove streaming.

y,not all of the tracks areplayed.In "Random all" pla
y, the system can only take into account up to 999 tracks.
With the en
gine off, the
audio system switches off after a few minutes of use. When the en
gine is switched off, the audio system operating timedepends on the battery charge.
The switch-o
ff 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 batterycharge.
The messa
ge "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surroundin
g 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 s
ystem off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
