dashboard Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2013 Owner handbook (in English)

INTRODUCTIONThe radio has been designed according to the passenger
compartment's specific characteristics and with a personalised
design that complements the style of the dashboard.
The instructions for use are given below. We recommend that you
read them carefully.ADVICERoad safety
Familiarise yourself with the various car radio functions (e.g.
storing radio stations), before starting to drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change constantly while driving. Reception
may be interfered with by the presence of mountains, buildings or
bridges, or when you are far away from the broadcaster.
NoteThe volume may be increased when receiving traffic alerts
and news.
If the volume is too loud this could be
dangerous for the driver and for passengers
when driving in traffic. Always adjust the
volume so that you can still hear background noises.
Maintenance and care
Only clean the cover with a soft, anti-static cloth. Cleaning and
polishing products may damage the surface.
CD
Dirt, scratches or any distortions on CDs may cause skipping
during playback and poor sound quality. Follow these tips for
optimum playback conditions:
❒only use CDs with the following mark:❒clean every CD thoroughly removing any fingerprints or dust
using a soft cloth. Hold CDs by the circumference and clean
them from the centre towards the edge;
❒never use chemical products (e.g. antistatic or thinner spray
cans) for cleaning as they could damage the surface of the CDs;
❒after listening to them place CDs back in their cases to avoid
them being damaged;
❒do not expose CDs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or
moisture for long periods;
❒do not stick labels on the surface of the CD and do not write on
the recorded surface using pens or pencils;

High level radio(dual tuner and dual aerial).
The Bose HI-FI audio system has been carefully designed to provide
the best acoustic performance and reproduce sound like a live
concert in all areas of the passenger compartment.
The system faithfully reproduces crystalline treble tones and
provides full and rich bass tones that make the loudness function
superfluous.
The complete range of sound is reproduced throughout the entire
passenger compartment so that the occupants are enveloped with
the feeling of space experienced when listening to live music.
The components used have been patented and make use of the
most sophisticated technology whilst at the same time being easy to
use by even the most inexperienced people.
