Notes on radio reception

Manual search

Manual seearch is via buttons J

or M.

By keeping button J or M pressed,

you will be able to scroll through

the waveband. Scrolling will stop

as soon as you release the button.

The radio will remain tuned to the

frequency that is displayed.

Automatic search

Your radio will be subject to certain

phenomena that are not encoun-

tered by domestic systems.

The reception of AM and FM signals

may suffer from interference, which

is caused by the nature and propa-

gation of the signals and does not

reﬂect on the quality of your radio

installation.

In AM, the reception may be affected

when passing under power lines or

bridges, or when travelling through

tunnels.

In FM mode, the reception may be

affected by the distance from the

station transmitter, the reﬂecting of

signals off obstacles (mountains,

hills, tower blocks) and radio blacks-

pots (no coverage from the station

transmitter).

A short press on one of the buttons

K or N will tune into higher or lower

radio stations respectively, within

the chosen waveband.

By keeping button K or N pressed,

you will be able to scroll through the

waveband. The scrolling will stop at

the ﬁrst station it ﬁnds once the but-

ton is released.

You can also do this by means of

control 2 at the steering wheel.

If the automatic search is unable to

tune into a known frequency (per-

haps owing to very weak reception),

it is possible to search manually to

ﬁnd this station.

Tuning sensitivity

Automatic searches can be carried

out according to two levels of sen-

sitivity :

- To capture the most powerful

transmitters, choose the local

search mode “LO” (default

option).

- To capture the weakest or most

distant transmitters, choose the

sensitive search mode “DX”.

Search for a station is done ﬁrst in

“LO” (local) sensitivity, then in “DX”

(distant) sensitivity.

IV

Display and selection of a

station available in the area in

which you are travelling

Brieﬂy press on button G to bring

every 10 minutes.

You can also update this list at

any time by giving a long press on

button G.

To listen to one of these stations,

select by pressing buttons J or M

and validate using button L.

Selection of radio source

Press button D to select the source.

Selection of frequencies and

memory banks

Press button E successively to go

and FM3, for the FM waveband,

and the memory banks MW/LW, for

the AM waveband.

To commence a search in sensitivity

twice in succession on one of the

buttons K or N.

Manual pre-setting

Automatic memorisation

of transmitters (Autostore

function)

In FM, if you hold down button E

for more than two seconds, your

radio will automatically memorise

the 6 strongest stations on the FM3

memory bank.

The display shows “FM AST”.

The radio memorises the 6 strong-

est transmitters, deleting the 6

previously memorised.

After the memorisation, the radio

goes directly to memory 1 of memory

bank FM3.

Recall of pre-set stations

Select the waveband and memory

bank required using button E.

Select a station using either auto-

matic or manual search.

Keep pressing for more than two

seconds on one of the pre-selection

buttons 1 to 6 on the keypad P.

The sound momentarily cuts off,

then returns to its previous level to

conﬁrm that it has memorised the

station.

Press button E brieﬂy to select the

required waveband and memory

bank.

A short press on one the pre-selec-

tion buttons 1 to 6 on the keypad P

recalls the corresponding memo-

rised station. You can also do this

using the control 3 at the steering

wheel.

If it is a RDS station, the frequency

appears some seconds before the

name appears.

For RDS stations, recall of a station

may prompt a search for a fre-

quency corresponding to the region

where you happen to be (see RDS

system).

IV

Note :

- If the trafﬁc information func-

tion has been activated (see

RDS SYSTEM), the stations

offering this facility will be memo-

rised as priority.

If it is unable to memorise any new

stations, the system will retain the

previously memorised stations.

- If the system is unable to ﬁnd

6 stations, the unﬁlled memory

slots will remain free.

barred if the station received

uses the RDS system without

frequency search.

If your RDS function is deactivated,

the “RDS” on the display will be

absent in all cases.

Scanning of rds stations

Your radio keeps the best possible

reception by continuously looks for

any other frequencies on which the

selected radio station is broadcast,

automatically choosing the fre-

quency offering the best reception (if

the station broadcasts on more than

one transmitter or frequency.

The display will indicate the “NAME”

for the stations that use the RDS

system and the frequency for sta-

tions that do not use it.

Regional search mode

Note :

- You have to be in FM wave

band.

- The station being listened to

should indicate via the RDS

system that it broadcasts trafﬁc

information.

(EON) have regional transmitters

that send their own programmes:

while you are listening to one of

these stations the system will

switch automatically to a station

on the network that is broadcast-

ing trafﬁc information.

Selecting a programme type

Some stations, when they are organ-

ised in networks, broadcast regional

programmes at certain times of day,

and national programmes at other

times.

It is possible to search :

- Either for a regional station only.

- Or across the whole network

in order to ﬁnd a different pro-

gramme.

trafﬁc information

TA trafﬁc information (trafﬁc

announcements)

broadcast the original source is

paused and when the messages

have ended your radio will automati-

cally revert to the music programme

you were listening to.

Your audio system may be

Bluetooth® compatible. It allows

you to connect a mobile telephone

for use “hands free” and even to

use its directory.

It permits you to twin up to four tel-

ephones, to be able then to connect

whichever one you choose.

The Bluetooth® functions available

and the content of the display are

dependent on the type of mobile

telephone, its settings and the type

of contract you have. For this reason

it is advisable to make enquiries with

your telephone provider.

Note :

Connecting a twinned

telephone

Refer to the user instructions to

familiarise yourself with the features

of twinning.

- The telephone detects the

Bluetooth®systemonyourvehicle.

“C4” displays on your telephone.

You should then select “C4” on

your telephone controls. Next you

must choose whether or not to

accept this twinning then select,

on screen C using J, M or 8, one

of the 4 memories. Validate with a

press on button L or 7.

Each time you enter the vehicle,

after switching on the audio system,

your telephone is detected automati-

cally. If more than one telephone is

present, the last telephone to have

been connected is the ﬁrst to be

recognised.

Note :

Disconnections may occur. You may

have to make a new connection (see

following page, Conﬁguration :

Connecting

telephone).

Remarks :

a

twinned mobile

IV

Prior to any operation :

- Your display should be lit up (key

in position M).

- Your telephone’s Bluetooth®

system must be activated.

Note :

- In the event of a problem, it is

recommended to switch your

telephone off and then on again.

- If you switch off your telephone

within the ﬁeld of reception of

the Bluetooth® system on your

vehicle, the next connection will

not be automatic. To restore

automatic connection, you will

have to connect your telephone

manually(see following page,

Conﬁguration : Connecting a

twinned mobile telephone).

- If you are already in telephone

communication when the audio

system is turned on, the latter

detects the telephone.

You can select a memory already

attributed, although the telephone

twinned to this location will no longer

be.

- Next the telephone asks you

to enter an identiﬁcation code :

1234.

Twinning a telephone

Twinning

a

telephone consists

of having it recognised by the

Bluetooth® system on your vehicle.

This then permits an instantaneous

connection.

- Validate.

Note :

This entry may be demanded earlier

in the twinning sequence.

The telephone is now twinned

to your Bluetooth® system. For

immediate access to the Bluetooth®

functions, it may be necessary to

make a connection (see following

page Conﬁguration : Connecting a

twinned mobile telephone).

Twinning can only be performed with

ignition switched on, display illumi-

nated, engine stopped. No other

telephone should be connected.

- The twinning must be performed

with the telephone and its

Bluetooth® system activated.

- To avoid interference, you are

advised not to place your mobile

telephone close to your radio.

Once the twinning is ﬁnished, you will

be able to connect your telephone

via the “Main menu”.
