GENERAL
INFORMATION
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR
USE AND ROAD SAFETY
The CONNECT Nav+ with Ra-
dio/Telephone/Navigator/On-board
computer makes it possible to easily
control the main functions of the car. To avoid creating dangerous situa-
tions for yourself and others in use of
the system, please pay attention to the
following points:
– the CONNECT Nav+ must be
used keeping full control of the car;
in the case of doubt in the use of the
functions, it is necessary to stop be-
fore performing the various opera-
tions;
– use of the cell phone is prohibited
near explosive substances.
The navigation system allows you to
reach your destination, indicating each
route change stored on the navigation
CD-ROM. In fact, in calculating the
route, the system takes into account
of all the information stored concern-
ing the roads, advising the best route.
However it cannot take account of the
traffic, sudden interruptions or any
other inconvenience.In carrying out any manoeuvre it is
always necessary to follow the rules of
the road, regardless of the advice giv-
en by the navigation system. If you
leave the suggested route, the naviga-
tion system will calculate a new one
and suggest it to you.
The navigation system
helps the driver while dri-
ving by suggesting, vocally and
graphically, the best route to be fol-
lowed to reach the preset destina-
tion. The suggestions given by the
navigation system do not exempt
the driver from full responsibility
due to driving behaviour and com-
pliance with road and other traffic
regulations. The responsibility for
road safety always and anyway lies
with the car’s driver.

FM2, FM3, MW, LW) pressing the
“SRC” key repeatedly 2-fig. 1;
– press key “
¯¯” 5-fig. 1or “˙˙”
6-fig. 1to start the search for tuning

tions that broadcast traffic bulletins.
If the “PTY” function is on, the tuner
only seeks stations with the selected
PTY program (see paragraph "PTY-
PROG TYPE function”).Manual station storage
The station being heard can be
stored in the range chosen with key-
pad buttons 16-fig. 1numbered from
“1” to “6” at the bottom of the main

– 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 on/off this function, press
briefly one of the keypad keys 16-fig.
1set near the icon key AF.
When the AF function is on, the
display shows “AF” and the wording
on the icon key is darkened.
The RDS channel name (if available)
is still shown on the display.“FREQUENCY” FUNCTION
The “Frequency” function enables to
tune the required radio station by
turning knob 15-fig. 1clockwise or
counter-clockwise.
To turn the “Frequency” function on,
turn knob 15-fig. 1to select the cor-
responding icon key and then press it.
To turn this function off, press again
knob 15-fig. 1. AF - 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 keypad16-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 16-
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:
– 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
– changing the audio source (Radio,
CD, CD-Changer) during the auto-
matic storage process, the Autostore
function is interrupted. “Autostore” FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC STATION

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.
