Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the
answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning your audio system.

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 missing or has been damaged (for
example, when going through an automatic car
wash or in an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by an authorised
DS


AUTOMOBILES dealer.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
picked stations.
The name of the radio station changes. The station is not picked 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 the system function: "Update list" to
update the list of stations received.
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 is per fectly normal. The system is
dependent on the GPS signal reception
conditions.

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.
When I connect my iPhone as a
telephone and
to the USB port at the same time, I am unable
to play the music files. When the iPhone connects automatically as
a
telephone, it forces the streaming function.
The streaming function takes the place of the
USB function which is then not usable, there
is a
period without sound of the track being
played with Apple
® players. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the
USB function takes priority over streaming).
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 support automatic playback.Start playback from the device.
The names of tracks and the track length are not
displayed on the screen when streaming audio. The Bluetooth
® profile does not allow the
transfer of this information.

QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
When changing the setting of treble and bass,
the equalizer setting is deselected.
When changing the equalizer setting, the treble
and bass settings are reset. The selection of an equalizer setting imposes
the treble and bass settings.
Modifying one without the other is not possible.
Modify the treble and bass or equalizer 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. Choosing a
distribution setting imposes
a


balance setting.
Modifying one without the other is not possible. Modify the balance setting or the distribution
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
When the "All passengers" mode is selected,
the distribution is not as expected. The choice of an "All passengers" distribution
setting can be programmed.Modify the distribution setting using the slider
on the touch screen.
There is a
difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources. To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source.Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Balance) to
the middle position, select the " None" musical
ambience and set the loudness correction to
the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When the engine is off, the system stops 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.
In normal off state, the system automatically
goes into energy economy mode to maintain an
adequate charge in the battery.Turn the ignition on to increase the charge of
the battery.
