Radio reception may be affected by
the use of electrical equipment not
approved by CITROËN, such as a USB
charger connected to the 12 V socket.
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.

Recalling preset stations

RDS, if activated, allows 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.

DAB / FM auto tracking

Digital radio

"DAB" does not cover 100% of the
territory.
When the digital radio signal is poor,
"DAB/FM station tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the
corresponding "FM" analogue station
(if there is one).

Digital radio provides higher quality
reception and also the graphical display
of current information on the radio
station being listened to. Select "List" in
the primary page.
The range of multiplexes available is
displayed in alphabetical order.

If the "DAB" station being listened to
is not available on "FM" ("DAB/FM"
option greyed out), or "DAB/FM station
tracking" is not activated, the sound
will cut out while the digital signal is too
weak.

If "DAB/FM station tracking" is
activated, there is a difference of a few
seconds when the system switches to
"FM" analogue radio with sometimes a
variation in volume.
When the digital signal is restored, the
system automatically changes back to
"DAB".

Select "Radio list

" in the secondary

page.

The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the
ignition is switched off or on connection of a
USB memory stick. The lists are memorised: if
they are not modified, the subsequent loading
time will be shorter.

The audio system 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, etc.) 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.
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.

(file allocation table).
