RDS
The external environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks,

mode. This is a normal effect of the way in
which radio waves are transmitted and does
not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.
If RDS is not available, the RDS symbol
appears struck out in the screen.
The 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 entire country as radio stations
do not cover 100% of the territory. This
explains the loss of reception of the station
during a journey.

Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning your audio system. 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 state of
charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
avoid discharging the vehicle's battery.
►

Start the vehicle’
s engine to increase the
charge of the battery.
The message "the audio system is
overheated" is displayed onscreen.
To protect the installation if the ambient

the CD player stopped.
►
Switch the audio system off for a few minutes
to allow the system to cool.
Radio
There is a difference in sound quality
between the different audio sources (radio,

resulting in audible differences when switching
between sources (radio, CD, etc.).
►

Check that the audio settings (V
olume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience and Loudness) are appropriate
to the sources being listened to. We recommend
setting the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re
