speakers, the Fader function shall be set to “F” (front)
to avoid sound system output power reduction and
volume muting if Fader is set to = R+9.
Loudness function
The Loudness function improves the sound volume

condition (on or off) is shown on the display for few
seconds by “LD ON” or “LD OFF”.TELEPHONE PROVISION
(where provided)
If the vehicle is equipped with a free-hands kit, the car
radio volume control is connected, when a telephone
call is received, to the telephone input, thus preventing
listening to the tuned station or the CD. The
telephone sound is always received to a set volume;
yet, it can be adjusted during conversation, by means
of button 22 (VOL+) or button 20 (VOL –).
The fixed telephone volume can be adjusted through
the “PHONE” function of the menu (see paragraph
“MENU”).
The only car radio buttons active during telephone
calls are:
❒20, 21 and 22 (ON , VOL+, VOL-: for car radio
switch-on/off and volume control;
❒1 (AF-TA): traffic information.
When the volume is turned off during a telephone call,
the display will indicate “PHONE”.
During telephone calls, all functions, except for
AutoSTore and Search (operating mode selection) are
disabled.
The phone call volume will be turned off when a
PTY31 announcement or a traffic news bulletin is
broadcast; press button 15 (AF-TA) to interrupt the
bulletin.
When the car radio is ON and the engine is OFF (with
the key in STOP position), the car radio will not turn
off when a telephone call is received; it will
automatically turn off when the call is over.

Presetting buttons
The buttons with symbols from 1 to 6 (“18”, “17”,
“16”, “15”, “14”, “13”) make it possible to set the
following presettings:
❒18 in the FM band (6 in FM1, 6 in FM2, 6 in FMT);
❒6 in the MW band;
❒6 in the LW band;
❒6 types of PTY programming (only in the FM mode
when PTY is selected).
To call a preset station, choose the required frequency
band and then press briefly the corresponding preset
button (from 1 to 6). For a few seconds the display
will show the number of the station preset and the
related frequency before showing the frequency band
and the name of the RDS station.
If the PI code (Program Index) can no longer receive at
the frequency allocated to a preset button, the radio
will start searching this PI on another frequency as
soon as the car leaves the area covered by the
previous frequency. The display will show “SEARCH”.
Should it be not possible to receive the PI stored on a
frequency after searching along the whole band, la
radio will tune to the stored frequency.
Pressing the respective preset button for longer than 2
seconds will store the tuned station (the sound system
will always store the frequency and the PI code).
Storing is confirmed by a beep.Storing the last station heard
The radio automatically keeps in storage the last
station heard for each reception band, which is then
tuned when the radio is turned on or the reception
band is changed.
Automatic tuning
Briefly press button 8 (
N) or 10 (O) to start
automatically searching the tuning for the next station
that it is possible to receive in the direction chosen.
If button 8 (
N) or 10 (O) is pressed for longer, quick
searching takes place: upon having tuned in to the first
well receivable station, the tuner stops for about 1
second (in Mute) before quick searching continues.
When the button is released, the tuner stops on the
next receivable station.

If the station on which the tuner stops is one of the
stations stored with the preset buttons, the display will
show the presetting number for a few seconds.

FMT, MW or LW;
❒Press briefly and repeatedly button 9 (
˜) or 12
(

stopped when the button is released.To turn on manual tuning search it is necessary to turn
off the PTY and AF (alternative frequencies), if on.

buttons, the display will show the presetting number
for a few seconds.

for a few seconds.
If the TA function is on (traffic information), the system
will search only the stations that broadcast traffic
bulletins. If the PTY function is on, the system will only
search PTY stations.

Manual station storage
The station being heard can be stored in the range
selected with buttons (“18”, “ 17”, “16”, “15”, “14”,
“13”) numbered from 1 to 6.
Keep one of these buttons (from 1 to 6) pressed until

If the TA function is on (traffic information), only the
stations that send traffic information will be stored.
This function may also be turned on when listening to
a tape or CD Changer (if installed).During automatic storage the display shows “A-
STORE”.
To interrupt AutoSTore press button 7 (BN-AS) again:
the radio will automatically tune to the station heard
before activation of the AutoSTore function.
At the end of the AutoSTore function the radio
automatically tunes on the first preset station in the
FMT band, stored on preset button 1 (18).
On buttons (“18”, “17”, “16”, “15”, “14”, “13”)
numbered from 1 to 6, the stations are automatically
stored that give a strong signal in that moment in the
present band.
