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  
so that there is GPS coverage by at least  
4 satellites.  
Depending on the geographical environment  
(tunnel, etc.) or the weather, the conditions of  
reception of the GPS signal may vary.  
This behaviour is normal. The system is  
dependent on the GPS signal reception  
conditions.  
My navigation is no longer connected.  
During start-up and in certain geographical  
areas, the connection may be unavailable.  
Check that the connected services are  
activated (settings, contract).

The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,  
basement car parks, etc.) 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 dealer.

station name.  
Media  
QUESTION  
RESPONSE  
SOLUTION  
Playback of my USB memory stick starts only  
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).  
Some files supplied with the memory stick  
may greatly slow down access to reading  
the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the  
catalogue time).  
Delete the files supplied with the memory stick  
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file  
structure on the memory stick.  
The CD is ejected every time or is not played.  
The CD is upside down, cannot be read, does  
not contain audio files or contains audio files of  
a format not recognised by the audio system.  
The CD has been recorded in a format that is  
not compatible with the player (udf, etc.).  
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating system  
not recognised by the audio system.  
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 badly damaged.  
Check the content in the case of a recorded  
CD: follow the advice in the "AUDIO" section.  
The audio system CD does not read DVDs.  
Due to poor quality, certain burned CDs will not  
be read by the audio system.

This is perfectly normal.  
There is a long waiting period following the  
insertion of a CD or connection of a USB

a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist,  
etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a  
few minutes.  
The CD sound is of poor quality.

Telephone  
QUESTION  
RESPONSE  
SOLUTION  
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 has Bluetooth  
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 the Brand's website (services).  
The volume of the telephone connected in  
Bluetooth mode is inaudible.  
The sound depends on both the system and  
the telephone.  
Increase the volume of the audio system, to  
maximum if required, and increase the volume  
of the telephone if necessary.  
Ambient noise affects the quality of the  
telephone call.  
Reduce the ambient noise level (close the  
windows, reduce the booster fan speed, slow  
down, etc.).  
Some contacts are duplicated in the list.  
The options for synchronising contacts are  
synchronising the contacts on the SIM card,  
the contacts on the telephone, or both. When  
both synchronisations are selected, some  
contacts may be duplicated.  
Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display  
telephone contacts".  
The contacts are not listed in alphabetical  
order.  
Some telephones offer display options.  
Depending on the settings chosen, contacts  
can be transferred in a specific order.  
Modify the telephone directory display settings.  
The system does not receive SMS.  
The Bluetooth mode does not permit sending  
SMS text messages to the system.

Settings  
QUESTION  
RESPONSE  
SOLUTION  
When changing the setting of treble and bass,  
the equalizer setting is deselected.  
The selection of an equalizer setting imposes  
the settings for treble and bass and vice versa.  
Modify the treble and bass or equalizer settings  
to obtain the desired musical ambience.  
When changing the equalizer setting, the treble  
and bass settings are reset.  
When changing the balance setting,  
distribution is deselected.  
The selection of a distribution setting imposes  
the balance settings and vice versa.  
Modify the balance setting or the distribution  
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.  
When changing the distribution setting, the  
balance setting is deselected.  
There is a difference in sound quality between  
the different audio sources.  
To allow for optimal listening quality, the  
audio settings can be tailored to different  
sound sources, which can generate audible  
differences when changing source.  
Check that the audio settings are adapted to  
the sources listened to. It is recommended that  
the audio settings (Bass:, Treble:, Balance)  
be adjusted 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.  
When the engine is off, the system switches off  
after several minutes of use.  
When the engine is switched off, the system's  
operating time depends on the state of charge of  
the battery.  
Start then vehicle's engine to increase the  
charge of the battery.  
The switch-off is normal: the system automatically  
goes into energy economy mode and switches off  
to maintain an adequate charge in the battery.  
The date and time cannot be set.  
Setting of the date and time is only available  
if the synchronisation with the satellites is  
deactivated.  
Settings menu/Options/Time-Date setting.  
Select the "Time" tab and deactivate the "GPS  
synchronisation" (UTC).
