The volume at which the traffic news is
transmitted depends on the listening vol-
ume:
❒listening volume below 5: traffic news
volume equal to 5 (fixed value);
❒listening volume above 5: traffic news
volume equal to listening volume +1.
If the volume is changed during the traffic
news, the level will not be shown on the
display; the new level will only be main-
tained during the traffic news in progress.
While traffic information is being received,
“TRAFFIC INFORMATION” will appear
on the display.
The TA function can be interrupted by
pressing any button on the car radio.REGIONAL MODE function
(reception of regional
transmissions)
Some national broadcasters transmit re-
gional programmes at certain times of the
day (that vary from region to region). This
function makes it possible to tune into lo-
cal (regional) broadcasters automatically
(see “EON function” paragraph).
If you want the radio to automatically tune
into the regional stations being broadcast
on the selected network, the function
must be activated.
To activate/deactivate the function use the
buttons ÷or ˜.
The current status of the function appears
on the display:
❒“REG ON” function activated.
❒“REG OFF” function deactivated.
If the function is deactivated and you have
tuned into a regional station working in a
given area and you enter a different area,
then the regional station received in the
new area will be broadcast.
IMPORTANT If the AF and REG functions
are active at the same time, once a bor-
der between two regions is crossed, the
radio may not switch correctly to a valid
alternative frequency.MP3 DISPLAY Function
(MP3 Compact Disc data display)
This function makes it possible to select
the information shown by the display
when listening to a CD containing MP3
tracks.
The function can be selected only if a
MP3 CD is loaded: in this case the text
“MP3 DISP” appears on the display.
To change the function use the buttons
÷or ˜.
The following settings are available:
❒“TITLE” (track title, if ID3-TAG is avail-
able);
❒“AUTHOR” (track author, if ID3-TAG
is available);
❒“ALBUM” (track album, if ID3-TAG
is available);
❒“FOLDER” name (name assigned to the
folder);
❒“FILE” name (name assigned to the MP3
file).

SPEED VOLUME function
(speed-dependent volume
variation)

ume level to the speed of the car, in-
creasing the volume when the speed

ment. To activate/deactivate the function,

(radio maximum volume limit
activation/deactivation)

vate/deactivate the maximum volume lim-
it when turning the radio on.
The display shows the function status:
❒“LIMIT ON” when the radio is turned
on the volume level will be:
– if the volume level is equal to or high-
er than the maximum value, the ra-
dio will come on at the maximum
volume;
– if the volume level is between the
minimum and maximum values, the
radio will come on at the same vol-
ume as before it was switched off;
– if the volume level is equal to or low-
er than the minimum value, the radio
will come on at the minimum volume.
❒“NO LIMIT” the radio will come on
at the same volume as before it was
switched off. The volume level can be
between 0 and 40.
Use the buttons ÷/˜to change the
setting.NOTES
❒ Using the Menu it is only possible to ad-
just the activation/deactivation of the
function and not the minimum or max-
imum volume value.
❒If turning on the radio the function
“TA”, “TEL” or an external audio
source is activated, the radio will turn
on with the volume set for these
sources. The volume can be adjusted
between the minimum and the maxi-
mum level, by deactivating the exter-
nal audio source.
❒If the battery charge is too low, the vol-
ume cannot be adjusted between the
minimum and the maximum level.
