T
here 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.

T
he 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.

Insert good quality CDs and store them in 
suitable conditions.
The audio settings (bass, treble, ambience) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting 
an ambience.
I am unable to connect my 
Bluetooth telephone. It is possible that Bluetooth is switched off on the telephone or that 
the telephone has not been made not visible. -

T
he message "USB 
peripheral error" 
or "Peripheral not 
recognised" is displayed in 
the screen. The USB memory stick is not recognised.
The memory stick may be corrupt.
Reformat the memory stick (FAT32).
A telephone connects 
automatically, 
disconnecting another 
telephone. Automatic connection overrides manual connection.
Modify the telephone settings to remove 
automatic connection.
The Apple
® player is 
not recognised when 
connecting to the USB 
port. The Apple® player is of a generation that is not compatible with a 
USB connection. Connect the Apple® player to the AUX Jack 
socket using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The hard disk or device 
is not recognised when 
connecting to the USB 
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is 
provided by the audio system.
Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V 
socket or an external power supply.
Caution
: ensure that the device does not 
transmit a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of 
destruction of the system).
When streaming, the 
sound cuts momentarily. Some models of telephone prioritise connection with the  
"hands-free" profile. Delete the "hands-free" connection profile to 
improve streaming.
In "Random all" play, not 
all of the tracks are played. In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up to 
999 tracks.

W
ith the engine off, the 
audio system switches off 
after a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time 
depends on the state of charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: energy economy mode is activated 
automatically to preserve the state of charge of the vehicle's 
battery. (See the "Energy Economy Mode" section). Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery 
charge.
The message "the audio 
system is overheated" 
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature 
is too high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal 
protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of 
the playing of the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to 
allow the system to cool.
