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 is a normal effect of the way in
which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.

by automatically retuning to alternative
frequencies. However, in certain
conditions, coverage of this RDS station
may not be assured throughout the entire
country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the
loss of reception of a station during a
j o u r n ey.

If the DAB station being listened to is
not available on FM (" DAB- FM" option
greyed out), or "DAB-FM tracking" is not
activated, the sound will cut out while the
digital signal is too weak.

USB port
Insert the USB memory stick in the USB port or
connect the USB device to the USB port using
a suitable cable (not supplied).
To protect the system, do not use a USB
hub.
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 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 equipment
This source is only available if "Auxiliary input"
has been checked in the audio settings. Connect the portable device (MP3 player, etc.)
to the jack socket using an audio cable (not
supplied).

CDRW, select ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet
standards if possible when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may
not be played correctly.

standard be 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.Telephone

requires sustained attention by the
driver, the pairing of a Bluetooth mobile
telephone with the Bluetooth hands-free
system of your audio system must be
done with the vehicle stationary and the
ignition on.
Activate the Bluetooth function on the
telephone and ensure that it is "visible to
all" (telephone configuration).
Procedure from the telephone
Select the system name in the list of
devices detected.
In the system, accept the connection request

The system offers to connect the telephone
with 3 profiles:
-
"Telephone " (hands-free kit, telephone

Navigation
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
The route calculation is not successful. The guidance criteria may be in conflict with
the current location (exclusion of toll roads on
a toll road).Check the route settings in the "Navigation"
menu.
The POIs do not appear. The POIs have not been selected.Select the POIs in the list of POIs.
The audible warning of "Danger zones" does
not work. The audible warning is not active or the volume
is too low.Activate the audible warning in the "Navigation"
menu and check the voice volume in the audio
settings.
The system does not suggest a detour around
an incident on the route. The guidance criteria do not take account of
TMC messages.Select setting for the "Traffic info " function in
the list of route settings (Without, Manual or
Automatic).
I receive a "Danger zone" alert which is not on
my route. Other than guidance, the system announces all
"Danger zones" positioned in a cone located in
front of the vehicle. It may provide an alert for
"Danger zones" located on nearby or parallel
roads.Zoom in on the map to see the exact position
of the "Danger zone". Select "On the route" to
no longer receive alerts other than navigation
instructions or to reduce the time for the
announcement.
Certain traffic jams along the route are not
indicated in real time. On starting, it is several minutes before the
system begins to receive the traffic information.Wait until the traffic information is being
received correctly (display of the traffic
information icons on the map).
In certain countries, only major routes
(motor ways, etc.) are listed for the traffic
information. This is per fectly normal. The system is
dependent on the traffic information available.

Radio
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed,
e t c .) . The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
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, etc.) 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 damaged (for
example when going through a car wash or into
an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a dealer.
The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may
take up to 3 minutes to receive more than
4 satellites correctly.Wait until the system has started up completely
so that there is GPS coverage by at least
4

satellites.
Depending on the geographical environment
(tunnel, etc.) or the weather, the conditions of
reception of the GPS signal may vary. This behaviour is normal. The system is
dependent on the GPS signal reception
conditions.
My navigation is no longer connected. During start-up and in certain geographical
areas, the connection may be unavailable.Check that the connected ser vices are
activated (settings, contract).

Playback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes). Some files supplied with the memory stick
may greatly slow down access to reading
the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the
catalogue time).Delete the files supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file
structure on the memory stick.
The CD is ejected every time or is not played. The CD is upside down, cannot be read, does not contain audio files or contains audio files of
a format not recognised by the audio system.
The CD has been recorded in a format that is
not compatible with the player (udf, etc.).
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating system
not recognised by the audio system.Check that the CD is inserted in the player the
right way up.
Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot
be played if it is too badly damaged.
Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: follow the advice in the "AUDIO" section.
The audio system CD does not read DVDs.
Due to poor quality, certain burned CDs will not
be read by the audio system.
Media
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
stations received.
The name of the radio station changes.
The station is not received or has changed its
name in the list.
Some radio stations send other information
in place of their name (the title of the song for
example).
The system interprets these details as the
station name.Press on the "Update list" button in the "Radio
stations" secondary menu.
