Radio
QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
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.
ac

tivate the "R
dS
" function by means of the
short-cut menu 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...)
block reception, including in R
dS m

ode.This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a fault with the audio system.
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 CITR
oËn

dealer.
I cannot find some radio
stations in the list of
stations received. The station is not received or its name has changed in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the title of the song for example).
The system interprets this information as the name of the station.
The name of the radio
station changes.

The external environment
(hills, buildings, tunnels, basement
car parks, ...) may block reception,
including in R
dS m
ode. This is a
normal effect of the way in which radio
waves are transmitted and does not
indicate any failure of the audio system.
Press the MENU button.
Select " Audio functions ".
Press OK.
Select the " FM waveband
preferences " function.
Press OK. Select "

In " Radio " mode, press OK directly to activate /
deactivate R
dS

mode.
RdS, if displayed, enables you to continue
listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies.
However, in certain conditions, coverage
of an R
dS s
tation may not be assured
throughout the country as radio stations
do not cover 100 % of the territory. This
explains the loss of reception of a station
that can occur during a journey.
Receiving TA messages
Press the TA button to activate or
deactivate traffic messages.
The TA (Traffic Announcement)
function gives priority to T
a

alert
messages. To operate, this function
needs good reception of a radio station
transmitting this type of message.
When a traffic report is transmitted, the
current audio source (Radio, CD, ...)
is interrupted automatically to play the
T
a

message. n
o
rmal playback of the
audio source resumes at the end of the
transmission of the message.
