USB port Selecting the source
Select " Source ".
Press Radio Media to display the primary page.
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory), an operation which 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 connection of a USB memory stick. The lists are memorised: if they are not modified, the subsequent loading time will be shorter.
Insert the USB memory stick into the USB port or connect the USB device to the USB port using a suitable cable (not supplied).
Auxiliary (AUX) socket
First adjust the volume of your portable device (to a high level). Then adjust the volume of your audio system. Display and management of the controls are via the portable device.
This source is only available if "Auxiliary input" has been checked in the audio settings.
(depending on equipment)
Connect the portable device (MP3 player…) to the auxiliary Jack socket using an audio cable (not supplied).
Choose the source.
Bluetooth ® Bluetooth ® Bluetooth audio streaming ® audio streaming ®
Streaming allows you to listen to music from your telephone.
The Bluetooth profile must be activated. First adjust the volume on your portable device (to a high level). Then adjust the volume of your audio system.
If play does not start automatically, it may be necessary to start the audio playback from the telephone. Control is from the portable device or by using the system's touch buttons.
Once connected in streaming mode, the telephone is considered to be a media source.
To protect the system, do not use a USB hub.
CD player (depending on equipment)
Insert the CD in the player.

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.
Activate the "RDS" 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 RDS mode. 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 franchised 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. Press on the "Update list" button in the "Radio stations" secondary menu.
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.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources.
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings can be adapted to the different sound sources, which may result in audible differences when changing source.
Check that the audio settings are adapted to the sources listened to. Adjust Balance, Treble, Bass to the middle position, select the "None" musical ambience and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
With the engine off, the system switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on the state of charge of the battery. The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.
The date and time cannot be set. Setting of the date and time is only available if the synchronisation with the satellites is deactivated. Settings menu / Options / Time-Date setting. Select the "Time" tab and deactivate the "GPS synchronisation" (UTC).
