ADVICE
Road safety
You are advised to learn how to use the var-
ious radio functions (e.g.: storing stations)
before starting to drive.
Reception conditions

when driving. Reception may be disturbed
by the presence of mountains, buildings or
bridges particularly when far away from the
station being listened to.

tion, the volume may be higher than nor-
mal.

The car sound system, fitted with CD player
(radio with Compact Disc player) or MP3 CD
player (radio with MP3 CD player) has been
designed in accordance with the special fea-
tures of the passenger compartment, with a
personalised design that blends with the style
of the dashboard. The sound system cannot
be adapted to other vehicles and for this rea-
son it cannot be removed.
The radio is installed in a user-friendly posi-
tion 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 Lineaccessori
Alfa Romeo.
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
driving can put the driver’s
life at risk and that of other peo-
ple. Therefore the volume should
always be adjusted in such a way
that it is always possible to hear
the noises of the surrounding en-
vironment (e.g.: horns, ambulance,
police sirens, etc.).
WARNING
Care and maintenance
The radio structure ensures long operation
with no need for particular maintenance.
In the event of a fault, contact Alfa Romeo
Authorized Services.
To clean the front panel only use a soft, an-
tistatic cloth. Cleaning and polishing prod-
ucts might spoil the surface.
