“TA-Traff. Ann.” FUNCTION
(TRAFFIC INFORMATION)
Certain stations in the FM band
(FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST) are al-
so enabled to broadcast information
about the conditions of the traffic. In
this case the displays shows the ab-
breviation “TP”.
To turn on/off the TA function (Traf-
fic Announcement) for traffic bulletins,
turn the encoder 14-fig. 1to select
the “TA-Traff. Ann.” function, then
press “ENTER” 15-fig. 1.
When the TA function is on, the dis-
play shows “TA” and symbol “✓” is
shown near the corresponding icon.The listening conditions and infor-
mation shown on the display may be
the following:
– TA and TP: you are tuned to a sta-
tion that broadcasts traffic information
and the traffic information function is
on
– TP: you are tuned to a station that
broadcasts traffic information but the
traffic information function is off
– TA: the traffic information function
is on but you are tuned to a station
that does not broadcast traffic infor-
mation
– TA and TP not shown on the dis-
play: you are tuned to a station that
does not broadcast traffic information
and the traffic information function is
off.
With the TA function on it is possi-
ble:
1) to receive traffic information al-
so if the CD/CDC/MP3 player is
working;
2) to receive traffic information at a
preset minimum level also with the ra-
dio volume down completely or in
stand-by. Listening to stored stations
Proceed as follows:
– choose the required frequency
band (FM1, FM2, FM3, FMAST, MW,
LW or AMAST) pressing repeatedly
the “SRC” key 3-fig. 1;
– press briefly one of the station
storage keys on the keypad 17-fig. 1
numbered from “1” to “6” at the bot-
tom of the main screen.
In the FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST
bands, if reception is poor and the
“AF-Alt. Freq.” alternative frequency
seek function is on, a station with the
strongest signal that is broadcasting
the same programme is automatically
sought.

– 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-Alt. Freq.” function
on/off, select “AF-Alt. Freq.” icon by
encoder 14-fig. 1and then press
“ENTER” 15-fig. 1repeatedly.
When the AF function is on, the dis-
play shows “AF” and the symbol “✓”
is shown near the icon.
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 the “RDS” function turning the
encoder 14-fig. 1and then press
“ENTER” 15-fig. 1.
When the “RDS” function is on, the
display shows the string with tuned
station name and the symbol “✓” is
shown near the corresponding icon. “AF-Alt. Freq.” 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 car
is crossing.

During automatic storage the display
shows “Autostore”.
Stations will be stored automatically
on the preset keys from “1” to “6” of
the keypad17-fig. 1. After storage,
the radio tunes automatically to the
first station of the FMAST band, cor-
responding to the frequency stored on
the preset key “1” of the keypad 17-
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 preset keys
from “1” to “6” the automatic storage
process is interrupted and the station
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, CD-Changer) during the auto-
matic storage process, the Autostore
function is interrupted. “Autostore” FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC STATION
STORAGE)
After selecting the AMAST or
FMAST band, to turn on the Auto-
store function (automatic station stor-
age), select the “AUTOSTORE” icon
with the encoder 14-fig. 1and then
press “ENTER” 15-fig. 1to confirm.
When this function is on, the radio
automatically stores the stations with
the strongest signal:
– 6 FM stations in the FMAST band
or
– 6 AM stations in the AMAST band.

dio station searching. When low sen-
sitivity “LOC” is set, only stations with
excellent reception are sought; when
high sensitivity “DX” is set, all the sta-
tions are sought. If you are in an area
with a large number of broadcasters
and you want the ones with the
strongest signal, choose low sensitivi-
ty “LOC”.
To choose between low or high
tuner sensitivity, repeatedly press
“ENTER” 15-fig. 1after selecting the

GENERAL
INFORMATION
The navigator integrated in the
CONNECT Nav+ 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 car position is determined
through the GPS system (Global Posi-
tioning System) installed on the car.
The GPS system is fitted with an an-
tenna and a reception module inte-
grated in the telematic system. This
system configuration dynamically
processes the satellite signals, those
from the right and left odometer, the
reversing signal and the information of
the gyroscope integrated in the navi-
gation computer, integrating them
with the current position of the car to
obtain an “estimated car point”.The navigation system helps the dri-
ver while he/she drives by suggesting
vocally and graphically the optimum
routing to reach the preset destina-
tion.
The navigation system suggestions do
not exempt the driver from full re-
sponsibility due to his/her driving be-
haviour and to compliance with road
and other traffic regulations. The re-
sponsibility for road safety always and
in any case lies with the car 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 car bat-
tery is disconnected.
– The GPS system needs a few min-
utes to determine the new position of
the car if it is turned off and the car
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 car 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.
