SUN ROOF
Glass sun roof
The sun roof is operated by theelectrical controlA.
An action to the fi rst notch of thecontrol starts a movement whichstops as soon as you release thecontrol.
An action to the second notch of
the control opens or closes the sun
roof fully. A further action stops themovement.
ANTI-PINCH
An anti-pinch device is present to stop the sun roof from sliding shut. If it
meets an obstacle it slides in the opposite direction.
After a battery disconnection or if there has been a malfunction, youhave to re-initialisethe anti-pinch function.
To do that, move the control Ato the second notch to make the sun roof open fully, then keep the control A pressed for at least1seconds.
Warnin
g: During this manœuvre, the anti-pinch does not operate.
Your vehicle's sun roof has a manually-
operated blind.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even if for a short time.
In the event of anything being caught by the sun roof closing, you must reverse the roof movement.
To do that, reverse the position of the control concerned.
When the driver is operating the sun roof, he or she must always make sure that the passengers are not preventing it from closing properly.
The driver must ensure that passengers use the sun roof control correctly.
PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO WHERE CHILDREN ARE WHEN OPERATING THE SUN ROOF.

SOLUTION RESPONSE

The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) blockreception, including in RDS mode.

The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park).
This phenomenon is normal and does notindicate a failure of the audio equipment.

Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode.

During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.

With the engine off,the audio equipment switches off after a fewminutes of use.

When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating timedepends on the battery charge.

The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
The stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 Mhz isdisplayed...)
.
An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the stations are stored.

Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.

The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or thestored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 Mhz isdisplayed...).

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 to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerfultransmitter in the geographical area.

USB Player

The system puts together playlists (temporary memory) created over a period which depends on the capacity of the USB equipment.
The other sources are available during this time.
The playlists are updated each time the ignition is switched off or each time a USB stick is connected.
When connecting for the fi rst time, the tracks are classifi ed by folder.When you reconnect, the classifi cation system selected previously is retained.
Connect the stick to the port, directly or using a lead. If the audio equipment is switched on, the USB source is detected as soon as it is connected. Play begins automatically after a delay which depends on the capacityof the USB stick. The fi le formats recognised are .mp3 (mpeg1 layer 3 only),.wma (standard 9 only), .wav and .ogg.
This unit consists of a USB port and aJack socket *
. It reads audio fi le formats (.mp3, .ogg, .wma, .wav...) which aretransmitted from portable equipmentsuch as a digital player or a USB stick to your Audio system to be listened to via the vehicle's speakers.
