THESIS CONNECT infotelematic
system, in its most refined version,
includes: colour TV set, sound sys-
tem with cassette player, CD-
ROM/Audio CD player, CD-chang-
er, GSM cell phone, navigator, trip
computer and voice commands (for
certain functions of cell phone,
audio system and navigator).
The following pages describe the
system controls and main functions.
The car is provided with a special
supplement dealing with CONNECT
infotelematic system to be used as
quick reference guide for using the
system. Read through this supple-
ment carefully and keep it always
within reach (e.g. in the glove com-
partment).
IMPORTANTFor the navigation
system of the CONNECT, only use
only the original CD provided with
the car or, in any case other CDs of
the same brand.If you drive with the vol-
ume too high you put both
your own life and that of
others in jeopardy. You should
adjust the volume so that you can
hear noises from outside the car
(e.g. horns, ambulance/police
sirens, etc.).
CONNECT CONTROLS (fig. 2)
The CONNECT system functions
can be managed by means of 29
buttons and 2 rotating selectors
(knobs). Certain controls have mul-
tiple functions that are dependent on
the system operating conditions
active.
The type of function that can be
actuated by means of the controls
depend, in some cases, on how long
the button is pressed down (long or
short push), as shown in the follow-
ing table. The Lancia navigation
system helps driver while
he drives, by suggesting
vocally or graphically, the opti-
mum routing to reach his preset
destination. Navigation system
suggestions do not excuse driver
from his full responsibilities due
to his driving behaviour and to
his compliance with road and
other traffic regulations. The
responsibility for road safety
always lies with the car driver,
and it falls on him in any case.IMPORTANTThe provided phone
is of the Single-Band type and there-
fore if your network provider is not
operating with the 900 Mhz GSM
standard, coverage troubles may arise
notwithstanding the roaming. Contact
your network provider for further in-
formation.
