ANSWER



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 powerful
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 a car wash or into 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 any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffi c announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffi c
information. The radio station does not broadcast traffi c information. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c
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.

SOLUTION


The 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 (FAT 32).
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 the USB. Connect the Apple ®
player to the AUX Jack socket
using a suitable cable (not supplied).
When I connect my
Apple
® player or my
BlackBerry ® to the
USB port, I have alert
messages on the current
consumption by the USB
port. When charging, the current consumption of these smartphones is greater
than the rating of the USB port, which is 500 mA.
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).

QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


When streaming, the
sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le. Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le 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.
With 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 battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. 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.

Display of the remaining AdBlue ®
range


At 0 miles, starting is
not possible
until you
have topped-up with
at least 3.8 litres of the
AdBlue
® additive (equivalent
to a range of about
3 000 miles (5 000 km) for
the AdBlue
® additive).

Between 1500 and 350 miles
(2 400 and 600 km), the
warning lamp is displayed
at every engine start,
accompanied by a message
indicating the number of miles
(kilometres) that can be run.
Between 350 and 0 miles
(600 and 0 km), the warning
lamp flashes, accompanied
by the ser vice warning
lamp and a message
indicating the number of
miles (kilometres) that can
be run.
When the AdBlue
®
tank is full, the range of the vehicle is about 12 500 miles (20 000 km).

You can check the remaining
range by pressing this button
in the instrument panel, if your
vehicle has the button.

In order to continue to meet the
standards on exhaust emissions,
you must follow the alert messages
scrupulously.
Never continue driving until the AdBlue
®

additive is completely used up.
After switching off the ignition, it will not
be possible to start the engine until the
AdBlue
® has been topped up.
Illumination of the warning lamp indicates that the remaining range for the
AdBlue
® additive is less than 1 500 miles (2 400 km). You should refill or top up
the AdBlue ® tank without delay.
See the section on "Refilling the AdBlue ®
tank".

1Monitoring
Service indicator
More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service information appears in the screen.
System which informs the driver when the next service is due, in accordance with the manufacturer's servicing schedule. The point at which the service is due is calculated from the last indicator zero reset, according to the mileage covered and the time elapsed since the last service. For Blue HDi Diesel versions, depending on the country of sale, the level of deterioration of the engine oil may also be taken into account.
Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner symbolising the service operations comes on. The distance recorder display line indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due. Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next service is due. For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder the spanner goes offresumes its normal operation. The screen then indicates the total and trip distances.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain before the next service is due. For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on to indicate that a service must be carried out soon.
