GENERAL
INFORMATION
The navigator integrated in the
CONNECT system allows you to
reach the chosen destination by visu-
al and voice instructions. Use of the
navigation system is quick, convenient,
safe and above all very flexible because
it allows you to call up already pro-
grammed destinations or points of ref-
erence such as hotels, monuments,
public structures, fuel stations orFi-
at Dealerships.
The vehicle position is determined
through the GPS system (Global Posi-
tioning System) installed on the vehi-
cle. The GPS system is fitted with an
antenna and a reception module inte-
grated in the telematic system. This
system configuration dynamically
processes the satellite signals and
those provided by the vehicle system,
integrating them with the current po-
sition of the vehicle to obtain an “es-
timated vehicle point”.The navigation system helps the dri-
ver while he drives by suggesting vo-
cally and graphically the optimum rout-
ing to reach the preset destination.
The navigation system suggestions do
not exempt the driver from full re-
sponsibility due to his driving behav-
iour and to compliance with road and
other traffic regulations. The respon-
sibility for road safety always and in
any case lies with the vehicle driver.IMPORTANT NOTES
– GPS reception is difficult under
trees, among tall buildings, in multi-lev-
el car parks, tunnels and everywhere
reception of the satellite antenna may
be hindered.
– The GPS system needs about 15
minutes for activation if the vehicle
battery is disconnected.
– The GPS system needs a few min-
utes to determine the new position of
the vehicle if it is turned off and the ve-
hicle is moved with the system off (e.g.:
on ferryboat).
– The GPS satellite aerial must not
be covered with metal or damp ob-
jects.
The instantaneous vehicle position is
identified in the CD-ROM and shown
on the display together with the topo-
graphic characteristics of the area
memorised on the CD-ROM. Access
to data on the CD-ROM requires a
few moments waiting for the map dis-
plays.

IMPORTANT NOTES
– Accurate self-adjustment of the nav-
igation system requires approx. 100
km of travel the first time and when
tyres are changed; during this stage the
calculated position could be less accu-
rate.
– Continuous lack of grip at the
wheels (for example skidding on ice),
makes the system temporarily detect
an incorrect position.The navigation system is completely
managed by the telematic system,
therefore the only operations that may
be required are replacement of the
CD-ROM to set the map of another
area or an updated map.
Access to the navigation main func-
tions is gained by short push on
“NAV” 20-fig. 1.
A long push on the “NAV” key 20-
fig. 1turns the NAV MUTE function
on and therefore voice instructions will
be muted. To turn the NAV MUTE
function off, press again the “NAV” key
20-fig. 1at length.Each time you start the engine and se-
lect the navigation function, the display
will show the cautions for using the sys-
tem; the text displayed is as follows:
“The FIAT navigation system guides
you in traffic and helps you reach your
destination. Local traffic regulations
must take precedence over the ma-
noeuvres indicated by the navigation
system. The driver is responsible for
operating the vehicle and observing all
traffic regulations”.
This page will not be displayed as long
as the ignition key is to MAR.

NAVIGATION CD-
ROM PLAYER
The navigator CD-ROM player 28-
fig. 1is located on the CONNECT
front panel and it is the same used for
the audio CD. Therefore, it is not pos-
sible to use the player for audio and
navigation CD-ROM at the same time:
however, the navigation system can
operate partially even without insert-
ing the navigation CD-ROM.
In this case, when pressing key
˚26-
fig. 1to remove the CD-ROM with
navigation function engaged (to then
insert an audio CD), the following two
cases may occur:– no route is calculated: only the ve-
hicle position is displayed on the map;
– the route previously calculated is
still valid, the system provides the user
with any instruction to reach the des-
tination.
In the first case only the vehicle po-
sition and the prompt to insert the
navigation CD-ROM fig. 101, will be
displayed. In the second case the sys-
tem can still provide the user with in-
structions to reach the destination; the
screen in fig. 102will be displayed.
Pressing “ESC” 23-fig. 1the system
will act as in the first case (only the ve-
hicle position is displayed) and the nav-
igation CD can be ejected. Pressing
the knob 22-fig. 1the system willstore the navigation data required to
reach the set destination; this opera-
tion requires a few seconds and the
display will prompt the message to wait
fig. 103.
After loading, the CD-ROM is eject-
ed and the system restarts its naviga-
tion function.
Moreover, navigation in these con-
ditions involves limitations and there-
fore some functions and commands
will not be available. Also information
shown on the map will be limited.
When the navigation system is no
longer able to continue destination
guidance or the vehicle is now out of
the loaded map section, the system
prompts for inserting the navigation

CD-ROM fig. 104. If the user does not
insert the CD-ROM, the system re-
turns to the operating conditions pre-
viously described for the first case, i.e.:
displaying only GPS information (vehi-
cle position and number of available
satellites) and not map information.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The driver is always responsible
for compliance with the enforced
traffic regulations: any indication
based on wrong map data leading
to unauthorised driving manoeu-
vres MUST NOT be followed.MAIN NAVIGATION
SCREEN
Main navigation screen fig. 105 shows
the following information:
– Distance to destination and esti-
mated arrival time (E.A.T.).

section and distance, current vehicle
position (town, street).

Pressing the knob 22-fig. 1, in NAV
mode, will display the following op-
tions fig. 106:– SELECT POINT: lets the user se-
lect a geographical point (through ad-
dress, directory….).
– NAV MUTE: activates the naviga-
tion system MUTE function; the dis-
play shows “MUTE” fig. 107.
– ACTIVATE RG: enables/disables
route guide. If RG is disabled, then voice
messages and intersection pictograms
are no more available. If a route is ac-
tive when RG is disabled, it remains vis-
ible on the map, while automatic route
recalculation is not active.
– VOLUME: sets the volume level.
