Road safety
You are advised to learn how to use the
various radio functions (e.g.: storing sta-
tions) before starting to drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change constantly
when driving. Reception may be disturbed
by the presence of mountains, buildings or
bridges particularly when far away from
the station being listened to.
IMPORTANT When receiving traffic in-
formation, the volume may be higher than
normal.

The car sound system, fitted with CD play-
er (radio with Compact Disc player) or
MP3 CD player (radio with MP3 CD play-
er) has been designed in accordance with
the special features of the passenger com-
partment, with a personalised design that
blends with the style of the dashboard. The
sound system cannot be adapted to other
vehicles and for this reason it cannot be re-
moved.
The radio is installed in a user-friendly po-
sition for the driver and passenger and the
graphics on the front panel make location
of the controls quick, facilitating use.
The CD Changer is available at Lineacces-
sori Fiat.
In the following pages you will find the in-
structions for use, which you are advised
to read through carefully. The instructions
also contain the procedure for controlling
the CD Changer (if provided) through the
radio. For the instructions for use of the
CD Changer refer to the specific manual.
Too high a volume when dri-
ving can put the driver’s life at
risk and that of other people. There-
fore the volume should always be ad-
justed in such a way that it is always
possible to hear the noises of the sur-
rounding environment (e.g.: horns, am-
bulance, police sirens, etc.).

INTRODUCTION
❒Carefully clean all Compact Discs of fin-
gerprints and dust using a soft cloth. Sup-
port Compact Discs from the outer cir-
cumference and clean from the centre
outwards;
❒Never use chemical products for clean-
ing (e.g.: spray cans, antistatic or thin-
ners) as they might damage the surface
of Compact Discs;
❒After use, put Compact Discs back in
their container, to avoid marks or
scratches that may cause skipping when
playing;
❒Do not expose Compact Discs to direct
sunlight, high temperatures or damp for
prolonged lengths of time to prevent
them from bending;
❒Do not stick labels or write on the
recorded surface of Compact Discs.To remove a Compact Disc from its con-
tainer, press the centre and raise the disc
carefully, holding it by the outer circum-
ference.
Always hold Compact Discs by the outer
circumference. Never touch the surface.
To remove fingerprints and dust, use a
soft cloth starting from the centre of the
Compact Disc outwards.
Do not use highly scratched, cracked, or
distorted discs, etc. The use of these discs
will involve malfunctioning or damage to
the player.
For optimal playing use original CDs only.
Regular operation is not guaranteed if us-
ing R/RW CDs not properly mastered
and/or CDs with max. capacity higher than
650 MB.
IMPORTANT Do not use the protective
sheets for CD in commerce or discs with
stabilisers, etc. as they might get stuck in
the internal mechanism and damage the
disc. Care and maintenance
The radio structure ensures long opera-
tion with no need for particular mainte-
nance. In the event of a fault, contact a Fi-
at Dealership.
To clean the front panel only use a soft,
antistatic cloth. Cleaning and polishing

INTRODUCTION
IMPORTANT The CD player can read
most of the compression systems cur-
rently on sale (e.g.: LAME, BLADE, XING,
FRAUNHOFER) however, due to the
evolution of these systems, reading of all
compression formats is not guaranteed.
IMPORTANT When loading a multi-ses-
sion CD, only the first session will be
played. IMPORTANT Should copy-protected
CDs be used, then, few seconds may be
required for playing them. Moreover, due
to the proliferation of always new and dif-
ferent protection methods, it is not guar-
anteed that the CD player can play what-
ever protected disc. Copy protection is
often indicated on the CD cover in small
letters or hard to read characters. Usu-
ally it is indicated by writings like: “COPY
CONTROL”, “COPY PROTECTED”,
“THIS CD CANNOT BE PLAYED ON A
PC/MAC”, or it is identified by symbols
like:TECHNICAL DATA
