“AF” FUNCTION
(SEEKING ALTERNATIVE
FREQUENCIES)
Within the RDS system the radio can
work in two different modes:
– AF ENABLED: alternative fre-
quency search on;
– AF DISABLED: alternative fre-
quency search off.
When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two cas-
es may occur:
– With AF ENABLED the RDS sys-
tem activates automatic tuning of the
optimum frequency of the station cho-
sen, with the stations enabled, there-
fore the radio is automatically tuned
to the station with the strongest sig-
nal that is broadcasting the same pro-
gramme. During the journey it will
thus be possible to continue listening
to the station chosen without having
to change the frequency when chang-
ing area. Of course, the station being
listened to must be receivable in the
area the vehicle is crossing.– With AF DISABLED the radio will
not tune the strongest station auto-
matically and it will have to be found
manually using the tuner buttons.
To turn the “AF” function on/off, se-
lect and confirm “AF” by the knob 22-
fig. 1, from the main audio menu
fig. 21. Then, select and confirm “EN-
ABLED” or “DISABLED” by the knob
22-fig. 1.
When the AF function is on, “AF” is
displayed in the vertical list of main au-
dio screen.
The RDS channel name (if available)
is still shown on the display.“RDS” FUNCTION
The “RDS” function enables/disables
RDS string (showing the tuned station
name) display.
To turn the “RDS” function on/off,
select “RDS” by the knob22-fig. 1
from the main audio menu fig. 21,
then press the knob to select “YES” or
“NO”.
When the “RDS” function is on, the
display shows the string with tuned sta-
tion name.

“AUTOSTORE” FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC STATION
STORAGE)
After selecting the AMST or FMST
band, to turn on the Autostore func-
tion (automatic station storage), select
and confirm “AUTOSTORE” with the
knob 22-fig. 1.
When this function is on, the radio
automatically stores the stations with
the strongest signal:
– 6 FM stations in the FMST band or
– 6 AM stations in the AMST band.
Stations will be stored automatically
on the multifunction keys 1 ÷ 6-fig. 1.
After storage, the radio tunes auto-
matically to the first station of the
FMAST band, corresponding to the fre-
quency stored on the multifunction key
1-fig. 1.Every station is stored only once, ex-
cept in the case of regional pro-
grammes which in certain cases might
be stored twice.
The behaviour of the set during Au-
tostore is as follows:
– at the beginning of the Autostore
function all the other functions are dis-
abled
– any change in volume is not shown
on the display
– pressing one of the multifunction
keys 1 ÷ 6-fig. 1the automatic stor-
age process is interrupted and the sta-
tion stored with that key is tuned
– selecting and activating a radio
function (e.g. PTY) the automatic stor-
age process is interrupted, the last sta-
tion heard before tuning on Autostore
is tuned and the function associated
with the key pressed is run– selecting and activating one or both
TA/AF functions during the automat-
ic storage process, automatic storage
will be interrupted, the TA (traffic in-
formation) and AF (alternative fre-
quencies) functions will be turned
on/off and a new automatic storage
process will be started
– changing the audio source (Radio,
CD) during the automatic storage
process, the Autostore function is in-
terrupted.
IMPORTANTIt may occur that
the Autostore function is unable to
find 6 stations with a strong signal; in
this case only the stations found are
stored.
IMPORTANTActivating the “Au-
tostore” function cancels the stations
stored previously in the FMST or
AMST band.

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.

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

fig. 1.
In the FM1, FM2 and FM3 bands, if
reception is poor and the AF alterna-
tive frequency seek function is on, a
station with the strongest signal that
is broadcasting the same programme
is automatically sought. “AUDIO SETUP” FUNCTION
(AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS)
The audio parameters can be acti-
vated and adjusted in the same way
with all the audio sources (Radio, CD).
The adjustment procedures are de-
scribed in the related paragraph of the
previous chapter.
“TA” FUNCTION (TRAFFIC
INFORMATION)
Certain stations in the FM band
(FM1, FM2 and FM3) are also enabled
to broadcast information about the
conditions of the traffic. In this case
the displays shows the abbreviation
“TP”.
To turn the TA function (Traffic An-
nouncement) on/off for traffic bul-
letins, repeatedly press the knob 22-

If the radio is working in the AM band,
choosing the FM band tunes to the last
station heard. If the chosen station does
not broadcast traffic information (“TP”
not shown on the display), an automatic
search is started for an enabled station.
If the volume is changed during a traf-
fic bulletin the value is not shown on
the display and the new value is kept
only for the bulletin in progress.
IMPORTANTIf the TA function is
on and the station tuned is not enabled
to provide traffic information or is no
longer able to broadcast this informa-
tion (the display does not show “TP”),
after about 1 minute in which the ra-
dio is in these conditions:
– if a CD is being played another sta-
tion enabled to broadcast traffic in-
formation is sought automatically
– if the radio is in use a warning s
sounding to alert that it is not possi-
ble to receive traffic information; to in-
terrupt it, it is necessary to tune to a
broadcaster enabled to give traffic in-
formation or switch off the TA func-
tion. “AF” FUNCTION
(SEEKING ALTERNATIVE
FREQUENCIES)
Within the RDS system the radio can
work in two different modes:
– AF ON: alternative frequency
search on;
– AF OFF: alternative frequency
search off.
When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two cas-
es may occur:
– With AF ON the RDS system ac-
tivates automatic tuning of the opti-
mum frequency of the station chosen,
with the stations enabled, therefore
the radio is automatically tuned to the
station with the strongest signal that
is broadcasting the same programme.
During the journey it will thus be pos-
sible to continue listening to the sta-
tion chosen without having to change
the frequency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the ve-
hicle is crossing.– With AF OFF the radio will not
tune the strongest station automati-
cally and it will have to be found man-
ually using the tuner buttons.
to turn the AF function on/off, re-
peatedly press the knob 22-fig. 1af-
ter selecting the TA/AF function.
The cyclic activation of the TA/AF
functions, which is obtained by brief
presses on the knob 22-
fig. 1, is the following: AF – TA – TA
and AF – both functions off – AF
…etc.
When the AF function is on the dis-
play shows “AF”.
The RDS channel name (if available)
is still shown on the display.
If the radio is working in the AM
band, when the “SRC” key 15-fig. 1
is pressed, it moves the FM band on
