QUESTION

ANSWER

SOLUTION

I cannot connect my
Bluetooth telephone.

the telephone's Bluetooth function may be switched off or the
telephone may not be visible.

Check that your telephone's Bluetooth function is
switched on.
Check in the telephone settings that it is "visible
to all".

the Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with the system.

You can check the compatibility of your
telephone at the brand's website (services).

the volume of the
telephone connected
in Bluetooth mode is
inaudible.

the volume depends both on the system and on the telephone.

Increase the volume of the audio system, to
maximum if required, and increase the volume of
the telephone if necessary.

the ambient noise level has an influence on the quality of
telephone communication.

Reduce the ambient noise level (close the
windows, reduce the booster fan speed, slow
down, ...).

Some contacts are
duplicated in the list.

the options for synchronizing contacts are synchronizing the
contacts on the SIM card, the contacts on the telephone, or both.
When both synchronizations are selected, some contacts may be
duplicated.

Select "Display SIM card contacts" or "Display
telephone contacts".

Contacts are not shown in
alphabetical order.

Some telephones offer display options. Depending on the settings
chosen, contacts can be transferred in a specific order.

Modify the display setting in the telephone
directory.

QUESTION

ANSWER

SOLUTION

there is a difference in
sound quality between the
different audio sources.

For optimum sound quality, the audio settings for Loudness,
Ambience, treble, Bass and Volume can be adapted to the different
sound sources, which may result in audible differences when
changing source.

Check that the audio settings for Loudness,
Ambience, treble, Bass and Volume are adapted
to the sources listened to. Adjust the Balance,
treble and Bass to the middle position, select the
"None" musical ambience and set the loudness
correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or
to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.

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

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 switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.

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

Your audio system is coded in such a way that it will only operate
in your vehicle.

the different functions and adjustments described vary
according to the version and configuration of your vehicle.

As a safety measure and because it requires the sustained
attention of the driver, the pairing of your Bluetooth telephone to
the Bluetooth hands-free audio system must only be carried out
with the vehicle stationary and the ignition on.
to avoid discharging the battery, the audio system may switch
off after a few minutes if the engine is not running.
