Certain traffi c jams
along the route are notindicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the
traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (display of the traffi c information icons on
the map).
Th
e fi lters are too restrictive. Modify the "Geographic fi lter" settings.
In certain countries, onl
y major routes (motorways...) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.

ystem's CD player does not play
DVDs.

yed by
the audio system because they are not of thecorrect quality. Le

CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio system.
There is a long waiting
period following the insertion

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
Some characters in themedia information are not displayed correctly while playing. The audio s
ystem does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.
Pla
ying of streaming fi lesdoes not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.
Th
e names of tracks and
the track length are notdisplayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The qualit
y of receptionof the radio station
listened to graduallydeteriorates 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 theshort-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in thegeographical 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 dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
I
cannot fi nd some radiostations in the list of stations received.The station is not received or its name has chan
ged in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the
title of the song for example).
The s
ystem interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio station changes.

With the engine off, the system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the en
gine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.

f my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).

to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stickand limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le structure on the memory stick.
