Insert the CD in the player, insert the USb
memory   stick   in   the   USB   player   or   connect   the  
USB

  peripheral   to   the   USB   port   using   a   suitable  
cable

  (not   supplied).
The
  system   builds   playlists   (in   temporary  
memory),

  an   operation   which   can   take   from  
a

  few   seconds   to   several   minutes   at   the   first  
connection.
Reduce

  the   number   of   non-music   files   and   the  
number

  of   folders   to   reduce   the   waiting   time.
The
  playlists   are   updated   every   time   the   ignition  
is

  switched   off   or   connection   of   a   USB   memory  
stick.

  However,   the   system   memorises   these  
lists

  and   if   they   are   not   modified,   the   loading  
time

  will   be   shorter.
Play
  starts   automatically   after   a   period   which  
depends

  on   the   capacity   of   the   USB   memory  
stick. Selection of source
The
SOUR c E   button   on   the   steering   mounted   controls   allows   a  direct
  change   to   the   next   media   source.

the   natural   atmosphere   of   an   auditorium:

of

and   its   surroundings.
This

is
 
made   possible   by   software   in   the   audio   system  
which

 
processes
 
the
 
digital   signals   from   the   media   players   (radio,

without
 
changing   the   audio   settings.  
This

takes

 
account

produce

 
optimum
 
results.
The
 
Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes the
 
digital
 
signal   from   the   media   players   (radio,   CD,   MP3,   ...)   and  
recreates

 
a
 
natural   musical   scene,   with   harmonious   placement   of

With
 
the   engine   off,   the  
system

  switches   off   after  
a

 
few
 
minutes   of   use. When
  the   engine   is   switched   off,   the   system's   operating   time   depends   on  
the

  battery   charge.
The
  switch-off   is   normal:   the   system   switches   to   economy   mode   and  
switches

  off   to   prevent   discharging   of   the   vehicle's   battery.Start
  the   vehicle's   engine   to   increase   the   battery  
charge.
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.

The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio  Layer   3,
is   an   audio   compression   standard   which   permits   the   recording   of  
several

  tens   of   music   files   on   a   single   disc.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when
recording,
  the   ISO   9660   level   1.2   or   Joliet   file   format   is  
recommended.
If

  the   disc   is   recorded   in   another   format,   it   may   not   be   played  
correctly

.
It
  is   recommended   that   the   same   recording   format   is   always  
used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible
(4x

  maximum)   for   optimum   sound   quality.
In
  the   particular   case   of   a   multi-session   CD,   the   Joliet   format   is  
recommended.
The

  audio   system   will   only   play   files   with   the   extension   ".mp3"   with  
a

  sampling   rate   of   22.05   KHz   or   44.1   KHz.   No   other   type   of   file  
(.wma,

  .mp4,   .m3u...)   can   be   played.
It
  is   advisable   to   restrict   file   names   to   20   characters   without   using  
special

  characters   (e.g.   "   ?   ;   ù)   to   avoid   any   playing   or   displaying  
problems.

previously

  is   retained.Connect
  the   memory   stick   to   the   port,   directly   or
