ignition Lancia Ypsilon 2012 Owner handbook (in English)

WARNING
Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered.
WARNING
Before tightening the hook clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make
sure that the hook is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the car.
WARNING
Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the brake servo and
the electric power assisted steering is not
available, greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, it is compulsory to respect specific
highway code regulations relating to the tow
hook and procedures for towing on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the car.

CD PLAYERINTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the variants regarding the
operation of the CD player: as far as the operation
of the radio is concerned, refer to the description
in the "Functions and Adjustments" chapter.
SELECTING THE CD PLAYER
To activate the CD player built-into the
equipment, proceed as follows:
❒load a CD with the equipment switched on: the
first track will start to play;
or
❒if a CD has already been loaded, turn on the car
radio and then briefly press the CD button to
select the “CD” operating mode: the last track
listened to will start to play.
It is advisable to use original CDs to ensure
optimum playback. If CD-R/RWs are used, we
recommend using good quality media that are
burnt at the slowest speed possible.LOADING/EJECTING A CD
To load the CD, insert it gently into the slot to
activate the motorised loading system, which will
position it correctly.
The CD can be loaded with radio off and the
ignition key turned to MAR-ON: in this case the
radio will remain off. When the radio is turned on,
the last source listened to before being switched off
will be activated.
When a CD is inserted the display will show the
symbol "CD-IN" and the text "CD Reading". They
will remain displayed for the entire time required
for the radio to read the CD tracks. When this
time has elapsed the radio automatically starts
playing the first track.
Press the
button (EJECT) with the radio on to
activate the motorised ejection of the CD. After
ejection, the last audio source listened to before
playing the CD will be heard.
If the CD is not removed from the radio, it will
automatically be reloaded about 20 seconds later
and the Tuner mode will be tuned into (Radio).
The CD cannot be ejected if the car radio is off.
If the ejected CD is reloaded without having
removed it completely from the slot, the radio will
not switch to the CD source.
