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 
upper band 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.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of 
received stations.
The name of the radio station changes. The station is not received or has changed its 
name in the list.
Press the round arrow on the "List" tab of the 
"Radio" page.
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.

Media
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
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.
Some information characters in the currently 
playing media are not displayed correctly. The audio system does not display some types 
of characters.Use standard characters to name tracks and 
folders.
Playback of streaming files does not start. The connected device does not automatically  launch playback.Start playback from the device.
Names of tracks and playing time are not 
displayed on the audio streaming screen. The Bluetooth profile does not allow the 
transfer of this information.

Telephone
QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
I cannot connect my Bluetooth telephone. The telephone's Bluetooth function may be  switched off or the telephone may not be 
visible.Check that the telephone has Bluetooth 
switched on.
Check in the telephone settings that it is 
"visible to all".
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with 
the system. It is possible to check the compatibility of the 
telephone on the Brand's website (services).
Android Auto and CarPlay do not work. Android Auto and CarPlay may not activate if 
the USB cables are of poor quality.Use authentic USB cables to ensure 
compatibility.
The volume of the telephone connected in 
Bluetooth mode is inaudible. The sound depends on both the system and 
the telephone.Increase the volume of the audio system, to 
maximum if required, and increase the volume 
of the telephone if necessary.
Ambient noise affects the quality of the 
telephone call. Reduce the ambient noise level (close 
windows, reduce ventilation, slow down, etc.).
The contacts are not listed in alphabetical 
o r d e r. Some telephones offer display options. 
Depending on the settings chosen, contacts 
can be transferred in a
  specific order.Change the telephone directory display 
settings.

Settings
QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
When changing the setting of treble and bass, 
the ambience is deselected.
When changing the ambience setting, the 
treble and bass settings are reset. The selection of an ambience setting imposes 
the settings for treble and bass and vice versa.
Modify the treble and bass or ambience 
settings to obtain the desired musical 
ambience.
When changing the balance setting, 
distribution is deselected.
When changing the distribution setting, the 
balance setting is deselected. The selection of a
  distribution setting imposes 
the balance settings and vice versa. Modify the balance setting or the distribution 
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
There is a
  difference in sound quality between 
the different audio sources. To allow for optimal listening quality, the 
audio settings can be tailored to different 
sound sources, which can generate audible 
differences when changing source.Check that the audio settings are adapted 
to the sources listened to. Adjust the audio 
functions to the middle position.
When the engine is off, the system switches off 
after several 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 automatically 
goes into energy economy mode and switches off 
to maintain an adequate charge in the battery.Start the engine to increase the charge of the 
battery.
