Radio
The exterior environment (hills, buildings,
tunnel, car park, below ground...) may
prevent reception, even in RDS station
tracking mode. This phenomenon is
normal in the propagation of radio waves
and is in no way indicative of a fault with
the audio system.
Selecting a station
Select " RDS" and confirm to save.
" RDS " is displayed in the screen.
When the radio is displayed on the
screen, press OK
to display the
contextual menu.
RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue
listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies.
However, in certain conditions, coverage
of an RDS station may not be assured
throughout the country as radio stations
do not cover 100
% of the territory. This
explains the loss of reception of the
station during a journey.

DAB / FM tracking
"DAB" does not have 100% coverage of
the country.
When the digital signal is weak,
"DAB / FM auto tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the
corresponding analogue "FM" station
(if it exists). If "DAB / FM auto tracking" is on, there
will be a difference of a few seconds
in the programme when the system
changes to analogue "FM" radio, with
sometimes a variation in volume.
When the strength of the digital signal
is good again, the system automatically
switches back to "DAB"
If the "DAB" station you are listening
to is not available on "FM" ("
DAB/FM"
option barred), or if "DAB / FM auto
tracking" is not on, the sound will be cut
when the digital signal is too weak.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in
sound quality between the
different audio sources
(radio, CD...). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound
sources, which may result in audible differences when changing
source (radio, CD...). 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, Front-Rear
Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position,
select the musical ambience "None" and set the
loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD
mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
If the bass and treble
settings are modified,
the ambience selected is
cancelled. The selection of an ambience imposes specific bass and treble
settings.
To obtain the desired sound quality, modify the
treble and bass settings or select a pre-defined
ambience setting.
If the ambience setting
is changed, the previous
settings for treble and bass
are cancelled.
If the "Driver" / "All
passengers" distribution
is modified, the balance
settings are cancelled. Choosing a distribution setting imposes a specific 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 changing the
balance setting, the
"Driver" / "All passengers"
distribution is cancelled.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
The quality of reception of
the radio station listened
to gradually deteriorates
or the stored stations do
not function (no sound,
87.5

MHz is displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station
listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area
through which the vehicle is travelling.
Activate the RDS function 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...)
block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through an automatic car wash or in an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2

seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for another
frequency giving better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffic announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffic
information. The radio station does not broadcast traffic information.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
The stored stations are not
found (no sound, 87.5 MHz
is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND button to return to the waveband
on which the stations are stored.
