ADVICE
ROAD SAFETY
You are recommended to learn how
to use the different functions of the
system and in particular of the radio
(e.g. storing stations) before starting
to drive.
IMPORTANTWhen receiving
traffic information the volume might
be higher than normal.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The structure of the system ensures
long years of operation with no need
for particular maintenance. In the
event of a fault, contact Fiat Deal-
ership.Some care must however be taken
to ensure the complete efficiency of
the system:
– the monitor is sensitive to scratch-
ing, liquid detergents and UV rays;
– liquids that penetrate inside may
damage the device irreparably.
Clean the front panel and display on-
ly using a soft, dry antistatic cloth.
Cleaning and polishing products may
damage the surface. RECEPTION CONDITIONS
Reception conditions change con-
stantly when driving. Reception can be
disturbed by the presence of moun-
tains, buildings, bridges particularly
when far away from the broadcaster
received.
Be careful not to knock
the display with pointed or
hard objects and avoid
touching with the hands. Do not
press on the display when cleaning.

Too high a volume when
driving can put the driver’s
life at risk and that of other people.
Therefore the volume should al-
ways be adjusted in such a way that
it is always possible to hear the
noises of the surrounding environ-
ment (e.g. horns, ambulance, police
sirens, etc.).

GENERAL
INFORMATION
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR
USE AND ROAD SAFETY
The CONNECT system makes it
possible to easily control the main
functions of the vehicle.
To avoid creating dangerous situa-
tions for yourself and others in use of
the system, please pay attention to the
following points:
– the system must be used keeping
full control of the vehicle; in the case
of doubt in the use of the functions,
it is necessary to stop before per-
forming the various operations;
– use of the cell phone is prohibited
near explosive substances.
The navigation system allows you to
reach your destination, indicating each
route change stored on the navigation
CD-ROM. In fact, in calculating the
route, the system takes into account
of all the information stored concern-
ing the roads, advising the best route.
However it cannot take account of the
traffic, sudden interruptions or any
other inconvenience.In carrying out any manoeuvre it is
always necessary to follow the rules of
the road, regardless of the advice giv-
en by the navigation system. If you
leave the suggested route, the naviga-
tion system will calculate a new one
and suggest it to you.SYSTEM POWER ON
The system can be switched on ac-
cording to two different methods:
automatic switching onwith ig-
nition key to MAR;
manual switching on:
– by pressing knob 16-fig. 1;
– with direct access to SOS menu by
pressing button
•25-fig. 1.
Automatic switching on
Turning the ignition key to MARwill
turn the system on automatically, thus
activating or making available all the
functions described in this manual.
The navigation system
helps the driver while dri-
ving by suggesting, vocally and
graphically, the best route to be fol-
lowed to reach the preset destina-
tion. The suggestions given by the
navigation system do not exempt
the driver from full responsibility
due to driving behaviour and com-
pliance with road and other traffic
regulations. The responsibility for
road safety always and anyway lies
with the vehicle’s driver.

MP3 MODE
To guarantee optimum playing, use
top quality CDs duplicated at as low
as possible speed.
The system can recognize the type
of Compact Disc inserted.
During the reading procedure to rec-
ognize the disk the display shows
“WARNING - Reading CD. Please
wait” and then “Exploring MP3..”.
IMPORTANTNever use 8 cm au-
dio or MP3 CDs, even with the spe-
cific adapter, since this format will
damage the system.
IMPORTANTThe system builds
MP3 CD folder-organized structure of
files; folders are organized in sequence
with their own mp3 tracks (up to max.
four levels of folders/subdirectories).
Folder and file name length shall not ex-
ceed 20 characters.
Characters: blank, ‘(apostrophe), (
and )(open and closed brackets) are
not admitted in track names.When creating MP3 CD you must not
use these characters to name files oth-
erwise the system will not be able to
play it.
Since a full MP3 CD could hypotheti-
cally include thousands of MP3 files, a
999 music pieces limit is imposed by the
system. If the user inserts a MP3 CD
which has more than 999 tracks (files)
in it, then only the first 999 files will be
considered and a 7-second warning will
be displayed fig. 37 “WARNING. THE
SYSTEM WILL MANAGE ONLY THE
FIRST 999 TRACKS ON MP3 CD”.
This warning will be closed after set
time or upon pressing “ESC” 23-fig. 1.Only one Playlist for each MP3 CD
can be managed. Trying to create a
second playlist on the same CD you
will overwrite the existent one.
The system allows storing a max.
number of 10 playlists (10 different
CDs); when reaching the last one ad-
mitted (when trying to insert the 11th
MP3 CD) the oldest playlist will be
overwritten; the display will show the
following message: “10 PLAYLISTS
HAVE ALREADY BEEN STORED.
DO YOU WANT TO OVERWRITE
THE OLDEST??”.
When a MP3 CD is inserted, the sys-
tem checks the presence of a stored
playlist coupled with the CD.
If one of the 10 “known” CDs is de-
tected, playing starts automatically ac-
cording to the preset sequence. If no
playlist coupled to the inserted MP3
CD is found, then playing starts from
the first file on the CD.
