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.

RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatically
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.
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. When a
traffic

automatically to play the TA message.
Normal play of the media previously
playing is resumed at the end of the

the ".mp3" extension with a sampling rate
of 22.05
kHz or 44.1 kHz. No other file type
(".wma", ".mp4", ".m3u", etc.) can be played.

speed as possible
(4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a
multi-session CD, the
Joliet standard is recommended.
