your

vehicle. As a safety measure, the driver must only carry out operations
which require prolonged attention while the vehicle is stationary.
When the engine is switched off and to prevent discharging of
the battery, the audio system may switch off after a few minutes.

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.
Receiving TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement)
function gives priority to TA alert
messages. To operate, this function
needs good reception of a radio station
transmitting this type of message.
When a traffic report is transmitted,
the current audio source (Radio, CD,
USB,
...) is interrupted automatically to
play the TA message. Normal playback
of the audio source resumes at the end
of the transmission of the message. The INFO function gives priority to
TA alert messages. To be active, this
function needs good reception of a
radio station that transmits this type
of message. When a message is
transmitted, the current audio source
(Radio, CD, USB, ...) is interrupted
automatically to receive the INFO
message. Normal play resumes at the
end of the message transmission.

Information and advice
The audio system will only play files with
extension ".mp3" or ".wma" and a compression
rate that is constant or variable between
32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.
It is advisable to restrict file names to
20
characters without using special characters
(e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying
problems.
Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32
(File Allocation Table).
The playlists accepted are types .m3u and .pls.
The number of files is limited to 5 000 in
500
directories on a maximum of 8 levels. In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or
CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select
standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may
not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording
standard 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 standard is recommended.Do not connect a hard disk or USB
device other than audio players to the
USB port. This may cause damage to
your installation.
On a single disc, the CD player can
read up to 255 MP3 files spread
over 8 directory levels. However, it
is recommended that this be kept to
2
levels so as to limit the time taken to
access and play the CD.
During play, the folder structure is not
observed.
