GLOSSARY
AF (Alternative Frequency)
Function that allows the radio to stay tuned on the FM
station selected also passing through areas served by
transmitters with different frequencies.
The RDS system actually keeps the intensity and
quality of the signal received under control,
automatically switching tuning on the frequency of the
transmitter that is sending the strongest signal.
AutoSTore
Function with which it is possible to store
automatically radio stations.
Balance (Channel balancing)
Function with which it is possible to suitably adjust the
sound from the right or left speakers.
Bass (Bass tones)
This function adjusts the bass tones.CD Changer
Multiple Compact Disc player.
CLR (Clear)
Function with which it is possible to clear one or all
the tracks of the CD stored with the TPM function.
Distant/Local (Sens Dx/Lo)
These are two levels of reception sensitivity.
1) Distant (maximum sensitivity), which makes it
possible to tune all the stations that can be
received.
2) Local (minimum sensitivity), which makes it possible
to tune only those stations with sufficiently strong
signals, such as for example local stations.
EON (Enhanced Other Network)
Function that allows the radio to tune automatically on
a different station than the one being listened to which
broadcasts traffic information.

If in the Radio mode,briefly and repeatedly press
button 13 (BAND-AUTOSTORE) to select the
required reception band.
Every time the button is pressed the following bands
are selected in sequence “FM1”, “FM2”, “FMT”, “MW”

display.
The last station selected in the respective frequency
band will be tuned specially if the station is not stored
on the presetting buttons.
If selected station is stored on one of the presetting
buttons, the display will show the presetting number
for few seconds; then the display will show again the
station frequency.
The FM band is divided into sections: FM1, FM2 and
FMT. The FMT reception band is reserved to the
stations stored automatically with the AutoSTore
function.
The radio is always ready to receive stations in the
RDS mode (Radio Data System).Presetting buttons
The buttons with symbols from 1 to 6 (“17”, “16”,
“14”, “11”, “10”, “8”) make it possible to set the
following presettings:

the frequency allocated to a preset button, the radio
will start searching this PI on another frequency as
soon as the car leaves the area covered by the
previous frequency. The display will show “SEARCH”.

Should it be not possible to receive the PI stored on a
frequency after searching along the whole band, the
radio will tune to the stored frequency.
Pressing the respective preset button for longer than 2
seconds will store the tuned station (the sound system
will always store the frequency and the PI code).

station heard for each reception band, which is then
tuned when the radio is turned on or the reception
band is changed.

searching takes place: upon having tuned in to the first
well receivable station, the tuner stops for about 1
second (in Mute) before quick searching continues.
When the button is released, the tuner stops on the
next receivable station.
If the TA function is on (traffic information), the tuner
only searches stations which broadcast traffic bulletins.If the PTY function is on, the tuner only searches PTY
stations. When searching, the display alternatively

If the station on which the tuner stops is one of the
stations stored with the preset buttons, the display will
show the presetting number for a few seconds.
