Steering wheel controls*General informationThe steering wheel includes a multifunction module from where it is possible
to control the audio, telephone and radi o navigation functions, and the auto-
matic gearbox*, without needing to distract the driver's attention.
There are two versions of the multifunction module:
•
Audio version, to control the available audio functions from the steering
wheel.
•
Audio + Telephone version, to control the available audio functions and
the telephone system from the steering wheel.
Both versions may be used to control the Audio system (Radio, CD Audio, CD
mp3, CD Changer) and the radio / naviga tion System, in which case they also
control the Navigation system.
