Press "OK" to confirm.
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 behaviour is normal in the
propagation of radio waves and does not
indicate any failure of the audio system.
Presetting a station
Select a radio station or frequency.
(refer to the corresponding section)
Press " Presets ".
Make a
long press on one of the
buttons to preset the station.
Changing waveband
Press Radio Media to display the
primary page.
To change the waveband, press "Band…"
displayed at the top right of the screen.
Activating/Deactivating RDS
Press Radio Media to display the
primary page.
Press the " OPTIONS" button to go to the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings ".
Select " General ".
Activate/deactivate " Station
tracking ".
Press " OK" to confirm.
RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an 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 the station during a
journey.
Displaying text information
The "Radio Text" function allows
information transmitted by the radio
station and related to the station or the
song playing to be displayed. Press Radio Media
to display the
primary page.
Press the " OPTIONS" button to go to the
secondary page.
Select "Radio settings ".
Select " General ".
Activate/deactivate " Display radio
text ".
Press " OK" to confirm.
Playing TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement) function
gives priority to TA alert messages.
To operate, this function needs good
reception of a
radio station that carries
this type of message. While traffic
information is being broadcast, the current
media is automatically interrupted so that
the TA message can be heard. Normal
play of the media previously playing is
resumed at the end of the message.
Select " Announcements ".
Activate/Deactivate " Traffic
announcement ".
Press " OK" to confirm.

DAB (Digital Audio
Broadcasting) radio
Terrestrial Digital Radio
Digital radio provides higher quality sound.
The different "multiplexes/ensembles"
offer a choice of radio stations arranged in
alphabetical order.
Press Radio Media to display the
primary page.
Press "Band…" at the top right of the screen to
display the " DAB" waveband.
DAB-FM tracking
"DAB" does not cover 100% of the
te r r i to r y.
When the digital radio signal is poor,
"DAB-FM auto tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the
corresponding FM analogue station (if
there is one).
Press Radio Media to display the
primary page.
Press the " OPTIONS" button to go to the
secondary page. Select "
Radio settings ".
Select " General ".
Activate/deactivate " FM- DAB
tracking ".
Activate/deactivate " Station
tracking ".
Press " OK".
If "DAB-FM auto tracking" is activated,
there may be a difference of a few
seconds when the system switches to
"FM" analogue radio with sometimes
a variation in volume.
Once the digital signal quality is restored,
the system automatically changes back
to " DA B ".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is not
available on FM (" DAB- FM" option greyed
out), or "DAB-FM auto tracking" is not
activated, the sound will cut out while the
digital signal is too weak.

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"

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 navigation instructions, 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.) blocks 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
cataloguing 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 if it is a
burned CD: consult the
advice in the "AUDIO" section.
The audio system CD player does not play DVDs.
Due to poor quality, certain burned CDs will not
be played 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.

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.
