Navigation, guidance
The route calculation is not successful. The guidance criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of toll roads on a toll motorway). Check the guidance criteria on the Navigation Menu, "Guidance options"\ "Defi ne calculation criteria".
I am unable to enter my post code. The system only accepts post codes of up to 5 characters.
The POIs do not appear. The POIs have not been selected. Select the POIs in the list of POIs.

cone located in front of the vehicle. It may provide an alert for a Risk\
area located on nearby or parallel roads.

Certain traffi c jams along the route are not indicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive t\
he traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (display of the traffi c information icons on the map).
The fi lters are too restrictive. Modify the "Geographic fi lter" settings.
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways...) are listed for \
the traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the traffi c information available.
The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to receive more than 4 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely. Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least 4 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select "GPS coverage").
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the weather, the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the GPS signal reception conditions.
Telephone, Bluetooth
I cannot connect my Bluetooth telephone. The telephone's Bluetooth function may be switched off or the telephone may not be visible. - Check that your telephone's Bluetooth function is switched on.
- Check in the telephone settings that it is "visible to all".
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with the system. You can check the compatibility of your telephone at www.peugeot.co.uk (services).
The volume of the telephone connected in Bluetooth mode is inaudible.
The volume depends both on the system and on the telephone. Increase the volume of the audio system, to maximum if required, and increase the volume of the telephone if necessary.
The ambient noise level has an infl uence on the quality of telephone communication. Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows, reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, ...).

Some contacts are duplicated in the list. The options for synchronizing contacts are synchronizing the contacts on the SIM card, the contacts on the telephone, or both. When both synchronizations are selected, some contacts may be duplicated.
Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display telephone contacts".
Contacts are not shown in alphabetical order. Some telephones offer display options. Depending on the settings chosen, contacts can be transferred in a specifi c order. Modify the display setting in the telephone directory.
The system does not receive SMS text messages. The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending SMS text messages to the system.
CD, MP3
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.
The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play. - Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.
- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too damaged.
- Check the content in the case of a recorded CD: refer to the advice in the "AUDIO" section.
- The audio system's CD player does not play DVDs.
- Some recorded CDs will not be played by the audio system because they are not of the correct quality.
The CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the pla\
yer (udf, ...).
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio system.
There is a long waiting period following the insertion of a CD or connection of a USB memory stick.
When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a few minutes.
This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is poor. The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable.\
Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.

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 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 environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) blo\
ck reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a fault with the audio system.
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 PEUGEOT dealer.
I cannot fi nd some radio stations in the list of stations received.
The station is not 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 this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio station changes.
