alternative synonyms.  
Example: Guide to / Navigate to / Go to / ...  
The voice commands in Arabic for: "Navigate  
to address" and "Display POI in the city", are  
not available.  
To ensure that voice commands are  
always recognised by the system, please  
follow these recommendations:

without breaking up words or raising your  
voice.  
– always wait for the "beep" (audible signal)  
before speaking.  
Information - Using the system

when you feel comfortable.  
For example, "navigate to address 11 Regent  
Street, London", "navigate to contact, John  
Miller", or "navigate to intersection of Regent  
Street, London". You can specify if it's a preferred  
address, or a Point of Interest. For example, say  
"navigate to preferred address, Tennis club", or  
"navigate to POI Heathrow Airport in London".  
Or, you can just say, "navigate home". To see  
Points of Interest on a map, you can say things  
like "show POI hotels in Banbury". For more  
information say "help with points of interest" or  
"help with route guidance".  
To choose a destination, say something like  
"navigate to line three" or "select line two". If you  
can't find the destination but the street's right,  
say for example "select the street in line three".

To see points of interest on a map, you can say  
things like "show hotels in Banbury", "show  
nearby parking", "show hotel at the destination"  
or "show petrol station along the route". If you  
prefer to navigate directly to a point of interest,  
you can say "navigate to nearby petrol station". If  
you feel you are not being well understood, try to  
say the word "POI" in front of the point of interest.  
For example say "navigate to POI restaurant at  
the destination".  
To choose a POI, say something like "select line  
2". If you've searched for a Point of Interest  
and don't see the one you're after, you can filter  
further by saying something like "select POI in line  
2", or "select the city in line 3". You can also scroll  
through the list by saying "next page" or "previous  
page".

You have not subscribed to the online services  
option.  
►ꢀ If you have subscribed to the option:  
- a few days may elapse before the service is  
activated,  
- services may not be selected in the system  
menu,  
- online services are not active ("TOMTOM  
TRAFFIC" not shown on the map).  
The POIs do not appear.  
The POIs have not been selected.  
►ꢀ Set the zoom level to 600 ft (200 m) or select  
POIs in the POI list.  
I receive a warning about a "Danger area" that is  
not on my route.  
As well as providing guided navigation, the  
system announces all "Danger areas" positioned  
in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may  
provide an alert for "Danger areas" located on  
nearby or parallel roads.  
►ꢀ Zoom the map to show the exact location  
of the "Danger area". You can select "On the  
route" to stop receiving warnings or decrease the  
warning duration.  
Radio  
The reception quality of the tuned radio station  
gradually deteriorates or the station presets are  
not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed,  
etc.).  
Certain traffic jams along the route are not  
indicated in real time.  
On starting, a few minutes may elapse before the  
system begins to receive traffic information.  
►ꢀ Wait until traffic information is being received  
correctly (traffic information icons shown on the  
map).  
The vehicle is too far from the selected station’s  
transmitter, or no transmitter is present in the  
geographical area.  
►ꢀ Activate the "RDS" function by means of the  
short-cut menu to enable the system to check  
241

DS CONNECT NAV  
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in  
the geographical area.  
The aerial is missing or has been damaged  
(for example while entering a car wash or  
underground car park).  
►ꢀ Have the aerial checked by a dealer.  
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,  
basement car parks, etc.) is blocking reception,  
including in RDS mode.  
This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is not  
indicative of an audio system malfunction.  
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of  
stations received.  
The name of the radio station changes.  
The station is no longer received or its name has  
changed in the list.  
Some radio stations send other information in  
place of their name (the title of the song for  
example).  
The system interprets these details as the station  
name.  
►ꢀ Press the "Update list" button in the "Radio  
stations” secondary menu.  
►ꢀ Delete the files supplied with the memory  
stick and limit the number of sub-folders in the  
file structure on the memory stick.  
There may be an extended pause after inserting a  
USB stick.  
The system reads a variety of data (folder, title,  
artist, etc.). This can take from a few seconds to  
a few minutes.  
►ꢀ Deactivate then reactivate the telphone’s  
Bluetooth function.  
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with  
the system.  
►ꢀ You can check that your telephone is  
compatible on the Brand's website (services).  
The volume of the telephone connected in  
Bluetooth mode is inaudible.  
The volume 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  
windows, reduce ventilation, slow down, etc.).  
Some contacts are duplicated in the list.  
The options for synchronising contacts are:  
synchronise the contacts on the SIM card, the  
contacts on the telephone, or both. When both  
synchronisations are selected, some contacts  
may be duplicated.  
This is perfectly normal.  
Some characters in information about the  
currently playing media may not be displayed  
correctly.  
The audio system is unable to process certain  
types of character.  
►ꢀ Use standard characters to name tracks and  
folders.  
Playback of streaming files does not start.  
The connected device does not automatically  
launch playback.  
►ꢀ Start playback from the device.  
Track names and playing times are not displayed  
on the audio streaming screen.  
The Bluetooth profile does not allow the transfer  
of this information.  
►ꢀ 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.

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 cataloguing  
time).  
I cannot connect my Bluetooth telephone.  
The telephone's Bluetooth function may be  
switched off or the telephone may not be visible.  
►ꢀ Check that the telephone has Bluetooth  
switched on.  
►ꢀ Modify the telephone directory display  
settings.  
The system does not receive SMS.  
►ꢀ Check in the telephone settings that it is  
"visible to all".

SMS text messages cannot be sent to the system  
in Bluetooth mode.  
►ꢀ In all cases, after applying sound settings,  
adjust the volume level on the portable device (to  
a high level) first. Then adjust the volume level on  
the audio system.  
When the engine is off, the system switches off  
after several minutes of use.  
Settings  
When the treble and bass settings are changed,  
the ambience is deselected.  
When the engine is switched off, the system's  
operating time depends on the state of 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.  
►ꢀ Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the  
charge of the battery.  
The date and time cannot be set.  
When the ambience is changed, the treble and  
bass settings are reset.  
Selecting an ambience imposes the treble and  
bass settings, and vice versa.  
►ꢀ Modify the treble and bass or ambience  
settings to obtain the desired musical ambience.  
When the balance settings are changed, the  
distribution is deselected.  
When the distribution setting is changed, the  
balance settings are deselected.  
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).  
Selecting a distribution setting imposes the  
balance settings, and vice versa.  
►ꢀ Modify the balance setting or the distribution  
setting to obtain the desired sound quality.  
There is a difference in sound quality between  
audio sources.  
To allow for optimal listening quality, the sound  
settings can be tailored to different audio  
sources, which can generate audible differences  
when changing source.  
►ꢀ Check that the sound settings are appropriate  
to the sources listened to. We recommend setting  
the sound functions (Bass:, Treble:, Balance) to  
the middle position, setting the musical ambience  
to "None", setting loudness correction to "Active"  
in USB mode and "Inactive" in Radio mode.
