INTRODUCTION ADVICE
The sound system, of fixed type, is
fitted with audiocassette player
(radio with audiocassettes) or CD
player (radio with Compact Disc
player) or CD MP3 player (radio
with Compact Disc MP3 player) and
sound graphic equaliser. The sound
system has been designed according
to the specific passenger compart-
ment characteristics. The special
design is in line with the style of the
dashboard.
The radio is installed in a user-
friendly position for the driver and
passenger and the graphics on the
front panel make location of the con-
trols quick, facilitating use.
The CD Changer for 5 discs, if pre-
sent, is housed in the upper glove
box of the dashboard, on passenger
side.
Below you will find the instructions
for use, which you are advised to
read through carefully. The instruc-
tions also contain the procedure for
controlling the CD Changer through
the radio. For the instructions for
use of the CD Changer refer to the
specific manual.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 con-
stantly when driving. Reception may
be disturbed by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges par-
ticularly when far away from the sta-
tion being listened to.IMPORTANTWhen receiving
traffic information, the volume may
be higher than normal.
Care and maintenance
The radio structure ensures long
operation with no need for particu-
lar maintenance. In the event of a
fault, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Do not expose cassettes to the sun
or high temperatures and put them
back in their boxes after use. To
obtain optimum playing conditions
do not use poor quality cassettes
and in any case no longer than C-90.
To clean the front panel only use a
soft, antistatic cloth. Cleaning and
polishing products might spoil the
surface.
Cassettes
To obtain optimum playing condi-
tions we give the following advice:
– do not use poor quality cassettes,
with distortions or labels detached;
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, po-
lice sirens, etc.).

The display will show the station
name (if any) and frequency, and on
the bottom line of the display will be
shown “Pn” where ncorresponds
to the active presetting number.
In bands FM1, FM2, FM3 and
FMAST, if reception is poor and the
AF alternative frequency search
function is active, the station with
the strongest signal that is broad-
casting the same programme will be
sought automatically.
AF function (alternative fre-
quency search)
To turn on/off the alternative fre-
quency search function (AF func-
tion), press briefly (less than 1 sec-
ond) the 8(AF
PTY) button. The
name RDS (if available) stays on the
display and if the AF function has
been turned on the messageAF
SWITCHING:ONis displayed.
– “AF SWITCHING: ON” =
alternative frequency searchon
– “AF SWITCHING: OFF” =
alternative frequency search off.When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two
cases may occur:
– With “AF SWITCHING: ON”
the RDS system activates automatic
tuning of the optimum frequency of
the station chosen, with the stations
enabled, therefore the radio is auto-
matically tuned to the station with
the strongest signal that is broad-
casting the same programme. During
the journey it will thus be possible to
continue listening to the station cho-
sen without having to change the fre-
quency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the
car is crossing.
– With “AF SWITCHING:
OFF” the radio will not tune the
strongest station automatically and it
will have to be found manually using
the tuner buttons.TA function (traffic informa-
tion)
Certain stations in the FM band (in
FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST storing
sections) are enabled to also broad-
cast information about traffic condi-
tions. When listening to traffic infor-
mation the display shows "TRAF-
FIC INFO" and the current station
(e.g. station name) alternately.
To turn the TA (traffic information)
function on/off, briefly press (less
than 1 second) the 9(TA) button. If
the function is on the display shows
“TA-ON”.
With the TAfunction on, at the
start of the traffic bulletin the radio
stops temporarily the current sta-
tion or the cassette/CD in order to
broadcast traffic information. This is
possible only if the current station
selected and the station broadcasting
traffic information are connected for
the EONfunction.
