LISTENING TO THE RADIO

“Frequency” mode

Use this mode to select radio stations by frequency in the radio band selected. To scan the frequency range, you have two options:

- search by frequency: scan the frequencies by repeatedly pressing the 9 buttons or move the cursor on the selector bar 10;

- search by station: move forwards or backwards to the next station by pressing the 8 buttons.

Select a radio band

Select “FM”, “AM” or “DAB” (digital radio) by pressing “Sources” 12 on the multimedia screen.

You can also choose the radio band by using the button on the steering column control.

“List” mode

This mode allows you to find a station by name from an alphabetical list.

Flick the list to scroll through all the stations. The radio station 14 that you stopped on is played. You can also select a radio station from the list to listen to it directly.

If radio stations do not use RDS or if the vehicle is in an area with poor radio reception, the name and logo will not appear on the screen. Only their frequencies are shown, at the top of the list.

Note: the information available depends on the station or radio band selected.

“Presets” mode

This mode allows you to access the previously stored radio stations. For more information, refer to “Save preset” in this section.

Press one of the buttons 15 to select the radio station that you wish to listen to.

Use the pop-up menu 7 in any mode to go to the settings and configure the following radio functions:

- “Radio settings”;

- Sound environment settings;

- “Sound settings”.

For further information, please refer to the section on “Settings”.

“Radio settings”

From the settings, you can activate or deactivate the following elements:

- “AM”;

- “Radio text”;

- “Region”;

- “TA/i-Traffic”;

- “Logo”;

- “HD radio”;

-...

AM

You can enable/disable the AM waveband display in the list of audio sources 11 by pressing “ON” or “OFF”.

“Radio text”

(text information)

Some FM radio stations broadcast text information relating to their programmes (e.g. song titles). Activate this function if you would like to see these details.

Note: this information is only available on some radio stations.

“Region”

The frequency of an “FM” radio station may change depending on the geographical area. Activate this function to continue listening to the same radio station whilst changing region. The audio system will automatically track frequency changes without interruption.

When “Region” mode is off, if the signal level drops, the radio will switch to a new frequency operating as a relay for the station you were listening to previously.

Note:

- stations in the same area sometimes broadcast different programmes or use different radio station names.

- some radios broadcast on regional frequencies. In this case:

- with “Region” activated: the system will not switch to the transmitter for the new region, but the system will switch normally between the transmitters of the initial region;

- With “Region” disabled: the system will switch to the transmitter for the new region, even if the broadcast programme is different.

“TA/i-Traffic”

(traffic information)

When this function is activated, your audio system enables traffic bulletins to be received (depending on the country) if they are broadcast on certain FM radio stations.

You must then select the frequency of the station that is transmitting traffic information. If another source is playing (USB, Bluetooth), it will be automatically interrupted whenever traffic information is received.

“Simulcast”

Depending on the country, this function switches from a DAB station to the equivalent FM station if the digital signal is lost.

If “Simulcast FM/DAB” is activated, it will take a few seconds for the system to switch to FM terrestrial radio. A change in volume may occur.

The system will automatically switch back to DAB as soon as the digital signal is received.

Note: during the simulcast, the station name is preceded by “FM>”.

“DAB priority”

Depending on the country, this function allows you to select an FM station (if the radio station requested is also available in digital) and switch to the equivalent DAB station to obtain better sound quality.

Note: during DAB priority, the station name is preceded by “DAB>”.

“Slideshow”

Depending on the country, this function allows you to display information on the programme, music or weather instead of the logo when listening to some DAB radio stations.

Depending on the digital radio station being listened to, it may send images containing visual information about these elements.

Note: this information is only available on some radio stations.

Sound environment settings

From the settings, you can activate or deactivate the following elements:

- “Natural”;

- “Live”;

- “Club”;

- “Lounge”;

-...

Note: the list of equaliser modes may vary according to the equipment.

“Sound settings”

From this menu, you can set the following:

- “Bass boost”: use this function to boost/reduce the bass sound.

- “Bass / Medium / Treble”: use this function to boost/reduce the bass, medium or treble sounds.

- Speed-dependent volume control: when this function is activated, the volume of the audio system varies in accordance with the vehicle speed. You can adjust its sensitivity or disable it;
