QUESTION
The quality of reception of
the radio station listened
to gradually deteriorates
or the stored stations do
not function (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed...).
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode.
The traffic announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffic
information.
The stored stations are not
found (no sound, 87.5 MHz
is displayed...).
378
ANSWER
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station
listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area
through which the vehicle is travelling.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...)
block reception, including in RDS mode.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through an automatic car wash or in an underground car park).
During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for another
frequency giving better reception of the station.
The radio station does not broadcast traffic information.
An incorrect waveband is selected.
SOLUTION
Activate the RDS function to enable the system
to check whether there is a more powerful
transmitter in the geographical area.
This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon
is too frequent and always on the same route.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
Press the BAND button to return to the waveband
on which the stations are stored.
