Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the
answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning the system.
Navigation
I cannot enter the navigation address.
The address is not recognised.
►  Use the "intuitive method" by pressing
the "Search…" button at the bottom of the
"Navigation” page.
The route calculation is not successful.
The route settings may conflict with the current
location (for example, if toll roads are excluded
but the vehicle is on a toll road).
►  Check the route settings in the "Navigation"
menu.
I do not receive "Danger zone” alerts.
You have not subscribed to the online services
option.
►  If you have subscribed to the option:
- a few days may elapse before the service is
activated,
- services may not be selected in the system
menu,
- online services are not active ("TOMTOM
TRAFFIC" not shown on the map).
The POIs do not appear.
The POIs have not been selected.
►  Set the zoom level to 600 ft (200 m) or select
POIs in the POI list.
The "Danger zone" audible warning feature is not
working.
The audible warning is not active or the volume is
too low.

217DS CONNECT NAV12
► Activate the audible warning in the
"Navigation" menu and check the voice volume in
the sound settings.
The system does not suggest a detour around an
incident on the route.
The route settings do not take account of TMC
messages.
►  Configure the "Traffic info " function in
the route settings list (Without, Manual or
Automatic).
I receive a warning about a "Danger area" that is
not on my route.
As well as providing guided navigation, the
system announces all "Danger areas" positioned
in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may
provide an alert for "Danger areas" located on
nearby or parallel roads.
►  Zoom the map to show the exact location
of the "Danger area". You can select "On the
route" to stop receiving warnings or decrease the
warning duration.
Certain traffic jams along the route are not
indicated in real time.
On starting, a few minutes may elapse before the
system begins to receive traffic information.
►  Wait until traffic information is being received
correctly (traffic information icons shown on the
map).
In certain countries, only major routes
(motorways, etc.) are listed for the traffic
information.
This is perfectly normal. The system is dependent
on the traffic information available. The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, GPS initialisation 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 behaviour is normal. The system is dependent
on the GPS signal reception conditions.
My navigation is no longer connected.
During start-up and in certain geographical areas,
the connection may be unavailable.
►  Check that the online services are activated
(settings, contract).
Radio
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the station presets are
not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed,
etc.).
The vehicle is too far from the selected station’s
transmitter, or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
►  Activate the "" function by means of the short-
cut menu to enable the system to check whether
there is a more powerful transmitter in the
geographical area.
The aerial is missing or has been damaged
(for example while entering a car wash or
underground car park). ► 
Have the aerial checked by a dealer.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,
including in RDS mode.
This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is not
indicative of an audio system malfunction.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of
stations received.
The name of the radio station changes.
The station is no longer received or its name has
changed 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 "Update list" button in the "Radio
stations” secondary menu.Media
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 cataloguing
time).
►  Delete the files supplied with the memory
stick and limit the number of sub-folders in the
file structure on the memory stick.
There may be an extended pause after inserting a
USB stick.
