volume buttons.

Radio

Presetting a station

Press the SRC/BAND button
repeatedly to select the FM1, FM2 or
AM waveband.

Press and hold a button to preset
the station being listened to. The
name of the station is displayed and
an audible signal confirms that it has
been preset.

The external environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may
block reception, including in RDS tracking
mode. This is a normal effect of the way
in which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.

Selecting a station

Press a button to listen to the
corresponding preset station.

Managing the list

Press LIST to display the list of
stations received in alphabetical
order.

Select the desired radio station by
pressing one of the buttons.

change to the next or previous letter.

Press and hold LIST to build or
update the list of stations; audio
reception is cut momentarily.

Audio system

Press MENU.

Select "RDS".

Confirm with OK.

Select "On" or "Off" to switch RDS

Receiving TA messages

The TA (Traffic Announcement) function
gives priority to TA alert messages.
To operate, this function needs good
reception of a radio station transmitting
this type of message. When a traffic
report is transmitted, the current audio
source (radio, CD, etc.) is interrupted
automatically to play the TA message.
Normal playback resumes at the end of
the transmission of the message.

Press MENU.

Select "Radio".

RDS

RDS, if displayed, allows you to
continue listening to the same station
by automatically 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 a station during a
journey.

Confirm with OK.

Select "Traffic TA".

Confirm with OK.

Select "On" or "Off" to activate or
deactivate the reception of traffic
messages.

Confirm with OK.

those from the current album or folder.

Information and advice

The audio system can only play files with
".mp3", ".wma" or ".wav" extensions.

To avoid any playback or display issues, it is
advisable to create file names that have less
than 20 characters and without using any
special characters (e.g. «?.; ù).

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or
CDRW, it is preferable to select the ISO 9660
level 1, 2 or Joliet standard when recording the
CD.
If the disc is burned in another format, it may
not be played correctly.

Audio system

It is recommended that the same recording
standard is always used for a given 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.

Playlists accepted are ".m3u" and ".pls" types.
The system can recognise up to 5,000 files in
500 folders on 8 levels.

On a given disc, the CD player can read up to
255 MP3 files spread over 8 levels. However,
it is recommended that this be kept to 2 levels
so as to limit the time taken to access and play
the CD.
The folder structure is not observed during
playback.

Audio settings

Press ¯ to display the audio
settings menu.

The settings available are:
- AMBIANCE,
- BASS,
- TREBLE,
- LOUDNESS,
- BALANCE,
- AUTO VOLUME.

Select the setting to adjust.

Confirm with OK.

Adjust the setting.

Confirm with OK.

The AMBIANCE, TREBLE and BASS
audio settings are different and
independent for each sound source.

Frequently asked
questions

The following information groups together the
answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning your audio system.

Audio system

QUESTION

RESPONSE

SOLUTION

There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, CD, etc.).

To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source (radio, CD,
etc.).

Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-
Rear Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle
position, select the musical ambience "None"
and set the loudness correction to the "Active"
position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position
in radio mode.

When changing the settings for treble and bass,
the ambiance setting is deselected.
When changing the ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset to zero.

Choosing an ambience imposes settings for
treble and bass. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.

Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.

The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed,
etc.).

The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.

Activate the RDS mode and start a new search
for the station so that the system can check
whether a stronger transmitter is available in the
geographic area.

The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) block reception,
including in RDS tracking mode.

This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.

The aerial is missing or has been damaged (for
example when going through a car wash or into
an underground car park).

Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Audio system

Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode.

During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS
searches for any frequency permitting better
reception of the station.

Switch off the RDS function if the phenomenon
is too frequent and always on the same route.

The traffic announcement (TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffic information.

The radio station does not broadcast traffic
information.

Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.

The stored stations are not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed, etc.).

An incorrect waveband is selected.

Press the SRC button to return to the waveband
(AM, FM1, FM2) on which the stations are
stored.

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 that cannot be played by the audio
system.
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: consult the advice in the "Audio"
section.

- The audio system’s CD player does not play

DVDs.

- Because of low quality, certain burned CDs

will not be read by the audio system.

The CD sound is of poor quality.

The CD used is scratched or of poor quality.

Insert good quality CDs and store them in
suitable conditions.

The audio settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are
unsuitable.

Return bass and treble settings to 0, without
selecting an ambience.

Audio system

In "Random all" play, not all of the tracks are
played.

In "Random all" play, the system can only take
into account up to 999 tracks.

With the engine off, the audio system switches
off after a few minutes of use.

When the engine is switched off, the audio
system operating time depends on the battery
charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.

Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the battery
charge.

The message "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display.

In order to protect the installation if the
surrounding temperature is too high, the audio
system switches to an automatic thermal
protection mode leading to a reduction of the
volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.

Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
