QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
Some characters in themedia information are not
displayed correctly while playing. The audio system does not display some types o
f characters. Use standard characters to name tracks andfolders.
Pla
ying of streaming fi lesdoes not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.
Th
e names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth pro
fi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The qualit
y of receptionof the radio station listened to graduallydeteriorates or the stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used b
y 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 theshort-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in thegeographical area.
The environment
(hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block 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 dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Th
e station is notreceived or its name has changed in the list.I
cannot fi nd some radio stations in the list of stations received.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the title of the song for example).
The s
ystem interprets this information as the name of the station.
The name of the radio station changes.

Th
ere is a difference in sound quality between
the different audiosources (radio, CD...). For optimum sound qualit
y, the audio settings for Volume, Bass, Treble,
Equalizer and Loudness can be adapted to the different sound sources,
which ma
y result in audible differences when changing source (radio,CD...). Check that the audio settin
gs for (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Equalizer, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set theAUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance,
Le-Ri balance) to the middle position, select the "None", musical ambience and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.

ANSWER SOLUTION
With the engine off, the system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the en
gine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-o
ff is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's en
gine to increase the batterycharge.
Pla
yback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).Some fi les supplied with the memor
y stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stickand limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le structure on the memory stick.
When I connect m
yiPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at thesame time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automaticall
y as a telephone, it forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USBfunction which is then not useable, there is a period without sound of the
track being played with AppleÆ players.Æ
Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the USB function takes priority over streaming).
When I connect m
yApple Æ
player or my Æ
BlackBerryÆ
to theÆ
USB port, I have alert messages on the currentconsumption by the USBport. When char
ging, the current consumption of these smartphones is greater
than the rating of the USB port, which is 500 mA.
