button for more than 2 seconds.

Flashing of the green indicator

lamp and a voice message

confirm that the call has

control unit, and independently of

been made to the "Localised

Emergency Call"* centre.

Pressing this button again immediately cancels

the call.

The green indicator lamp goes off.

At any time, pressing this button for more than

8 seconds cancels the call.

If you benefit from the CITROËN

Connect Box offer with the SOS and

assistance pack included, there are

additional services available to you in

your MyCITROËN personal space, via

the CITROËN Internet website in your

country, accessible on www.citroen.com.

The green indicator lamp remains on (without

flashing) when communication is established.

It goes off at the end of the call.

This call is dealt with by the "Localised

Emergency Call" centre, which receives

locating information from the vehicle and

can send a detailed alert to the appropriate

emergency services.

In countries in which a centre is not

operational, or when the locating service

has been expressly declined, the call is dealt

with directly by the emergency services (112)

without the vehicle location.

* These services are subject to conditions and

availability.

Consult a CITROËN dealer.

Localised Assistance Call

Press this button for more than

2 seconds to request assistance

if the vehicle breaks down.

A voice message confirms that

the call has been started*.

Operation of the system

If you purchased your vehicle outside

the CITROËN dealer network, we

invite you to have a dealer check the

configuration of these services and, if

desired, modified to suit your wishes.

In a multi-lingual country, configuration

is possible in the official national

language of your choice.

When the ignition is switched on,

the green indicator lamp comes

on for 3 seconds indicating that

the system is operating correctly.

Pressing this button again immediately cancels

the request.

The cancellation is confirmed by a voice

message.

The orange indicator lamp

flashes then goes off: the system

has a fault.

The orange indicator lamp is on fixed: the back-

up battery should be replaced.

In both cases, the emergency and assistance

calls service may not work.

Contact a qualified repairer as soon as

possible.

For technical reasons, particularly

to improve the quality of Telematic

services to customers, the

manufacturer reserves the right to carry

out updates to the vehicle's on-board

telematic system.

The fault with the system does not

prevent the vehicle being driven.

* These services are subject to conditions and

availability.

Consult a CITROËN dealer.

gloves. This technology allows use at

all temperatures.

With the engine running, press to

mute the sound.

With the ignition off, press to switch

the system on.

To clean the screen, use a soft

non-abrasive cloth (spectacles cloth)

without any additional product.

Information and advice

The audio equipment will only play audio files

with ".wma, .aac, .flac, .ogg and. mp3" file

extensions and with a bit rate of between

32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.

It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.

No other type of file (.mp4, ...) can be played.

".wma" files must be of the standard wma 9 type.

The sampling rates supported are 32, 44 and

48 KHz.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or

CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select

the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.

If the disc is recorded in another format it may

not be played correctly.

It is recommended that the same recording

standard is always used for an individual disc,

with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)

for optimum sound quality.

Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32

(file allocation table).

The system does not support the

simultaneous connection of two

identical devices (two memory sticks,

two Apple^®

players) but it is possible

to connect one memory stick and one

Apple^®player at the same time.

In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the

Joliet standard is recommended.

It is advisable to restrict file names to

20 characters, without using of special

characters (e.g.: " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing

and displaying problems.

It is recommended that the USB cable

for the portable device is used.

The system supports USB mass

storage devices, BlackBerry^®devices

or Apple^®players via USB ports. The

adaptor cable not supplied.

Control of the peripheral device is with

the audio system controls.

Other peripherals, not recognised on

connection, must be connected to the

auxiliary socket using a Jack cable (not

supplied).

using the audio system buttons.

Control is via the audio system.

Connect the Apple^®player to the USB port

using a suitable cable (not supplied).

Play starts automatically.

The version of software in the audio system

may not be compatible with the generation of

Selecting a station

RDS

A long press on LIST builds or

updates the list of stations; audio

reception is cut momentarily.

The exterior environment (hills, buildings,

tunnel, car park, below ground...) may

prevent reception, even in RDS station

tracking mode. This phenomenon is

normal in the propagation of radio waves

and is in no way indicative of a fault with

the audio system.

RDS, if displayed, 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.

Press SOURCE or SRC several

times in succession and select radio.

When the radio is displayed on the

screen, press OK to display the

contextual menu.

Press BAND to select a waveband.

Select "RDS" and confirm to save.

"RDS" is displayed in the screen.
