Receiving TA messages
RDS Displaying RADIO TEXT
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.
RDS, if activated, 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. Radio text is information transmitted by
the radio station related to the current
programme or song.

Frequently asked questions
The following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.QUESTION ANSWER 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 adjust
audio settings (bass, treble, Front-Rear balance,
Left-Right balance) to the middle position, select
the musical ambience and set the loudness
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the
settings for treble and
bass, the ambience setting
is deselected.
When changing the
ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset
to zero. Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass.
Modifying one without the other is only possible with a personalised
ambience.
Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.
When changing the
balance setting,
distribution is deselected. Choosing the "driver" distribution setting imposes a balance setting.
Modify the balance setting or the distribution
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.

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 a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT 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.
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 SRC/ TEL button to return to the
waveband (FM1 or FM2) on which the stations
are stored.

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 system switches off after activation of economy
mode.
