use.
The CD Changer for 10 discs (if provided), is housed
in the boot.
In the following pages you will find the instructions for
use, which you are advised to read through carefully.
The instructions also contain the procedure for
controlling the CD Changer (if provided) through the
radio. For the instructions for use of the CD Changer

ADVICE
Road Safety
You are advised to learn how to use the various radio
functions (e.g.: storing stations) before starting to
drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change constantly when driving.
Reception may be disturbed by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges particularly when far
away from the station being listened to.
IMPORTANT When receiving traffic information, the
volume may be higher than normal.
WARNINGToo high a volume when driving can put the driver’s life at risk and that of other
people. Therefore the volume should always be adjusted in such a way that it is
always possible to hear the noises of the surrounding environment (e.g.: horns,
ambulance, police sirens, etc.).

Do not use highly scratched, cracked, or distorted
discs, etc. The use of these discs will involve
malfunctioning or damage to the player.
For best playing use only original CDs. Proper
operation is not guaranteed when using R/RW CDs
not properly mastered and/or with max. capacity
exceeding 650 MB.
IMPORTANT Do not use the protective sheets fo
CD in commerce or discs with stabilisers, etc.as they
might get stuck in the internal mechanism and damage
the disc.IMPORTANT Should copy-protected CDs be used,
then, few seconds may be required for playing them.
IMPORTANT The CD player can read most of the
compression systems currently on sale (e.g.: LAME,
BLADE,XING, FRAUNHOFER); however, due to the
evolution of these systems, reading of all compression
formats is not guaranteed.
WARNING When loading a multi-session CD, only
the first session will be played.
New discs may be rough around the edges. When
these discs are used, the player might not work or the
sound might skip. To remove the roughness from the
edge of the disc use a ball-point pen, etc.
