station may not be assured throughout the
entire country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the loss of

Media
USB port
Insert the USB memory stick into 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); this operation 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.
Playlists are updated whenever the ignition
is switched off or a USB memory stick is
connected. The audio system memorises these
lists, which will subsequently load faster if they
have not been changed.
Auxiliary socket (AUX)
Depending on equipmentConnect a portable device (MP3 player,
etc.) to the auxiliary jack socket using an
audio cable (not supplied).
This source is only available if "Auxiliary input"
has been selected in the audio settings.
First adjust the volume on the portable device
(to a high level). Then adjust the volume of the
audio system.
Controls are managed via the portable device.

Then adjust the volume of the 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.
Connecting Apple® players
Connect the Apple® player to the USB port using
a suitable cable (not supplied).
Play starts automatically.
Control is via the audio system.
The classifications available are those of the portable device connected (artists/

first level of the menu then select the desired
classification (playlists for example) and
confirm to go down through the menu to the
desired track.
The version of software in the audio system may
not be compatible with the generation of the
Apple
® player.
Information and advice
The system supports USB mass storage devices, BlackBerry® devices or Apple®
players via the USB sockets. The adapter
cable is not supplied.
Device management is via the audio system
controls.
Other devices, not recognised on connection,

The audio system will only play audio files with
".wma", ".aac", ".flac", ".ogg" and ".mp3" file
extensions and with a bit rate of between 32
Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other file types (".mp4", etc.) can be read.
Files of the ".wma" type should be to the wma 9
standard.
The sampling rates supported are 32, 44 and
48 kHz.
It is recommended that file names are less
than 20 characters long and do not contain any
special characters (e.g. « »
? . ; ù) so as to avoid
any reading or display problems.
Use only USB memory sticks in FAT32 format
(File Allocation Table).
It is recommended that the original USB
cable for the portable device be used.
CD player (depending on equipment).
In order to be able to play a burned CDR or
CDRW, select standards ISO 9660 level 1, 2, or
Joliet, if possible, when burning the CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may not
be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same burning
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.

the route settings list (Without, Manual or
Automatic).
I receive a warning about a "Danger area"
that is not on my route.
As well as providing guided navigation, the
system announces all "Danger areas" positioned
in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may
provide an alert for "Danger areas" located on
nearby or parallel roads.
►

Zoom the map to show the exact location
of the "Danger area".

You can select "On the
route" to stop receiving warnings or decrease the
warning duration.
Certain traffic jams along the route are not
indicated in real time.
On starting, a few minutes may elapse before

►

W
ait until traffic information is being received
correctly (traffic information icons shown on the
map).
In certain countries, only major routes
(motorways, etc.) are listed for the traffic
information.
This is perfectly normal. The system is
dependent on the traffic information available.
The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, GPS initialisation may take up to
3 minutes to receive more than 4 satellites
correctly. ►
W ait until the system has started up
completely so that there is GPS coverage by at

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 online services are activated
(settings, contract).
Radio
The reception quality of the tuned radio
station gradually deteriorates or the station
presets are not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz
is displayed, etc.).
The vehicle is too far from the selected station’s
transmitter, 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 powerful transmitter in
the geographical area.
The aerial is missing or has been damaged
(for example while entering a car wash or
underground car park).
►


Have the aerial checked by a dealer
.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,
including in RDS mode.
This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is
not indicative of an audio system malfunction.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
stations received.
The name of the radio station changes.
The station is no longer 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 these details as the station
name.
► Press the "Update list" button in the "Radio
stations” secondary menu.
Media
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

stick and limit the number of sub-folders in the
file structure on the memory stick.
The CD is systematically ejected 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.
