CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The radio structure ensures long oper-
ation with no need for particular mainte-
nance. In the event of a fault, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
To clean the front panel only use a soft,
antistatic cloth. Cleaning and polishing
products might spoil the surface.
Too high a volume when dri-
ving can put the driver’s life
at risk and that of other people.
Therefore the volume should always
be adjusted in such a way that it is al-
ways possible to hear the noises of the
surrounding environment (e.g.: horns,
ambulance and police sirens, etc.).
