RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE
PHONESRadio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios,
amateur radio, etc.) cannot be used inside the car unless a separate
aerial is mounted externally.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices inside the passenger
compartment (without separate aerial) produces radio-frequency
electromagnetic fields which, amplified by the resonance effects inside
the passenger compartment, may cause electrical systems equipping
the car to malfunction. This could compromise safety in addition to
constituting a potential hazard for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of these devices may be
affected by the shielding effect of the car body.
As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM,
GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile
phone manufacturer.
PARKING SENSORS(for versions/markets, where provided)
The parking sensors are located in the car's rear bumper fig. 96 and
their function is to inform the driver, through an intermittent acoustic
signal, about the presence of obstacles behind the car.ACTIVATIONThe sensors are activated by engaging reverse gear. As the obstacle
behind the vehicle gets closer to the car, the acoustic signal becomes
more frequent.

FUNCTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTSSWITCHING ON THE RADIOThe radio switches on when the
button (ON/OFF) is pressed
briefly.
When the radio is turned on, the volume is limited to level 20 if it
was set to a higher value when previously used or to level 5 if it
was previously set to value 0 or to Mute/Pause. The previously set
value is maintained in all other cases.
When the radio is switched on with the key extracted from the
ignition, it switches off automatically after about 20 minutes. After
the radio has switched itself off automatically it can be switched on
for a further 20 minutes by pressing the
button (ON/OFF).
SWITCHING OFF THE RADIOBriefly press the
button (ON/OFF).
SELECTING THE RADIO FUNCTIONSBy pressing the FM AS button quickly and repeatedly, the following
audio sources can be selected cyclically:
❒TUNER (“FM1”, “FM2”, “FMA”).
By pressing the AM button briefly and repeatedly, the following
audio sources can be selected cyclically:
❒TUNER (“MW1”, “MW2”).SELECTING CD FUNCTIONBy pressing the MEDIA button briefly it is possible to select the CD
function.AUDIO SOURCE MEMORY FUNCTIONIf another function (e.g. the radio) is selected whilst listening to a
CD, playback is interrupted and is resumed from the same point
when returning to the CD source.
If another function is selected whilst listening to the radio, the last
station selected is tuned into when returning to Radio mode.VOLUME ADJUSTMENTTo adjust the volume, turn the left knobA(fig. 1).
If the volume level is changed during the transmission of traffic
news, the new setting will only be maintained until the update is
finished.

SOUND-SYSTEM

REGIONAL MODE function(regional transmission reception)
Some national broadcasters will transmit regional programmes at
certain times of the day (that vary from region to region).
This function makes it possible to tune into local (regional)
broadcasters automatically (see “EON function” paragraph).
If you want the radio to automatically tune into the regional
stations being broadcast on the selected network, the function must
be activated.
To activate/deactivate the function use the
or
buttons.
The current status of the function appears on the display:
❒“Regional On”: function activated;
❒“Regional Off”: function deactivated.
If the function is deactivated and you have tuned into a regional
station working in a given area and you enter a different area,
then the regional station received in the new area will be
broadcast.
NoteIf the AF and REG functions are on at the same time, once a
border between two regions is crossed, the radio may not switch
correctly to a valid alternative frequency.
MP3 DISPLAY function(MP3 CD data display)
This function makes it possible to select the information shown by
the display when listening to a CD containing MP3 tracks.
The function can only be selected if an MP3 CD is inserted: in this
case “MP3 Display” will appear on the display.
To change the function, use the
or
buttons.
The following settings are available:
❒“Title” (track title, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Author” (track author, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Album” (track album, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Folder” name (name assigned to the folder);
❒“File” name (name assigned to the MP3 file).

SOUND-SYSTEM

AUTOSTORE FUNCTION(automatic station storing)
To activate the AutoSTore function, hold the FM AS button down
until an acoustic signal is heard. With this function, the radio
automatically stores the 6 stations with the strongest signal in
decreasing order on the FMA frequency band.
During the automatic storing process, the word “Autostore” flashes
on the display.
Press the FM AS button again to interrupt the AutoSTore function:
the radio will again tune into the station listened to before the
activation of the function.
When the AutoSTore function has finished, the radio will
automatically tune into the first preset station on the FMA band
stored on the preset side 1.
The stations that have a strong signal in the preselected band at
that moment, are then automatically stored on the buttons
numbered from 1 to 6.
When the AutoSTore function is activated within the MW band, the
FMA band is automatically selected and the function is performed
there.
NoteSometimes the AutoSTore function is not able to find 6
stations with a strong signal. In this case, the strongest stations will
be duplicated in the free preset buttons.
NoteWhen the AutoSTore function is activated, the stations that
were previously stored in the FMA band are deleted.
EMERGENCY ALARM RECEPTIONThe radio is configured to receive emergency alerts in RDS mode in
exceptional circumstances or where dangerous situations are
present (earthquakes, floods, etc.) if these are being transmitted by
the current broadcaster.
This function is activated automatically and cannot be turned off.
The word “Alarm” will be shown in the display during the
transmission of an emergency announcement. The volume of the
radio will change during this announcement in the same way as
during a traffic bulletin.
