Radio reception may be affected by the
use of electrical equipment not approved
by DS AUTOMOBILES, such as a USB
charger connected to the 12
V socket.
The external environment (hills, buildings,

block reception, including in RDS mode.
This is a
normal effect of the way in
which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.

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.
