EMERGENCY ALARM
RECEPTION
In the RDS mode the radio is set to re-
ceive emergency announcements in the
case of exceptional circumstances or
events that may cause general danger
(earthquakes, floods, etc.), if they are
broadcast by the station tuned.
This function is activated automatically and
cannot be deactivated.
During emergency announcement the dis-
play will show the message “ALARM”.
During this announcement the volume will
change as described for traffic announce-
ments (see paragraph “TA FUNCTION”).
EON FUNCTION
(Enhanced Other Network)
Certain countries have circuits which
group together several stations enabled to
broadcast traffic information. In this case
the programme of the station being heard
will be interrupted temporarily:
❒to receive traffic information (only with
TA function on);
❒to listen to regional programmes every
time these bulletins are given by one
of the stations of the same circuits.STEREOPHONIC STATIONS
If the signal received is weak, the device
switches automatically from Stereo to
Mono.

INTRODUCTION
RADIO
REGIONAL MODE function
(regional broadcast reception)
Certain national broadcasters, at deter-
minate times of the day, transmit region-
al programmes which differ from region
to region. This function makes it possible
to tune in only on local stations (region-
al) (see paragraph “EON function”).
Activate this function if you want to tune
automatically to regional stations broad-
casting in the selected band.
To turn the function on/off use button
Èor Í.
The display will show the current status
of the function:
❒“REGIONAL MODE: ON”: function
on.
❒“REGIONAL MODE: OFF”: function
off.
If the function is off and a regional pro-
gramme is tuned that works in a deter-
minate area and the car enters a different
area, the regional station of the new area
is received.
IMPORTANT If AF and REG are both ac-
tive, when passing from one region to an-
other the radio could not tune properly to
a valid alternative frequency.MP3 CD DISPLAY
(MP3 CD data display)
With this function it is possible to choose
the information shown on the display,
when listening to a MP3 CD.
This function can be selected only if a MP3
CD is loaded: in this event the display
shows “MP3 DISPLAY”.
To change the function use buttons
Èor Í.
The display shows the setting among the
six possible:
❒TITLE (track title, if ID3-TAG available)
❒AUTHOR (track author, if ID3-TAG
available)
❒ALBUM (album title, if ID3-TAG avail-
able)
❒DIR (directory name);
❒FILENAME (MP3 file name);
❒TIME (time elapsed from start of track). The volume with which the traffic bulletin
is transmitted varies depending on the lis-
tening volume:
❒listening volume below 20: traffic bul-
letin volume = 20 (fixed value);
❒listening volume above 20: traffic bul-
letin volume = listening volume +1.
If the volume is changed during a traffic
bulletin the value is not shown on the dis-
play and the new value is kept only for the
bulletin in progress.
When receiving traffic information the dis-
play will show message “TRAFFIC IN-
FORMATION”.
The TA function is interrupted by press-
ing any sound system button.
