FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below
are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests
set down by relevant European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring
consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that
simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: drive simulating the driving of the
car out of town with frequent acceleration in all
gears; the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: the weighting is around 37%
urban cycle and 63% extra-urban cycle. IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations,
weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of
the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres x \
100 km)

RADIO
PRESET/USER*/CLASSIC/ ROCK/JAZZ
functions (equaliser activation/deactivation)
The built-in equaliser can be activated/deactivated. When
the equaliser function is deactivated, the audio settings
can only be changed by adjusting the “Bass” and “Treble”
settings, whereas when the function is on, the acoustic
curves can be adjusted.
To deactivate the equaliser, select the “EQ Preset”
function using the buttons ¯or ˙.
To activate the equaliser, use the buttons ¯or ˙to
select one of the presets:
❒ “FM/AM/CD...EQ User” (7 equaliser band preset that
can be changed by the user);
❒ “Classic” (equaliser preset for optimal classical music
sound);
❒ “Rock” (equaliser preset for optimal rock and pop
music sound);
❒ “Jazz” (equaliser preset for optimal jazz music sound);
When one of the equaliser adjustments is activated the
text “EQ” lights up. *USER EQ SETTINGS function
(equaliser settings only if the USER setting has
been selected)
To set a customized equaliser adjustment, set the user
using either the
▲or ▼button and press the MENU
button.
A 7 bar graph appears on the display, in which each bar
represents a frequency. Select the bar to be adjusted
using the buttons ¯or ˙; the selected bar will start to
flash and it can be adjusted using buttons ▲or ▼.
To store the setting, press the AUDIO button again. The
display will show the source activated at that time
followed by the text “User”. If the mode is FM, then the
display will show “FM EQ User”.

RADIO
TRAFFIC INFORMATION function
(traffic information)
Some stations on the FM band (FM1, FM2 and FMA) can
transmit information about traffic conditions. In this case
the text “TA” appears on the display.
Proceed as follows to activate/deactivate the TA
function:
❒press the MENU button briefly and select “Traffic
info”;
❒ press the ¯ / ˙ buttons to turn the function on/off.
If the TA function has been activated, the icon “TA”
lights up on the display.
IMPORTANT If the TA function is activated with an
audio source other than Tuner (Radio) (CD, MP3,
telephone or Mute/Pause), the radio can carry out an
automatic search and therefore it is possible, when
reactivating the Tuner (Radio) source, that the frequency
tuned into is different from the one previously set.
With the TA function, it is possible to:
❒ search only for RDS stations that transmit on the FM
band, that are enabled to transmit traffic information;
❒ receive traffic information even if the CD player is on;
❒ receive traffic information at a minimum preset
volume even with the radio volume off.
IMPORTANT In some countries there are radio stations
that, even with the TP function activated, do not
transmit traffic information (the icon “TP” appears on
the display). If the radio is tuned to a station in the AM band, when
TA is activated it will tune to the last selected station in
the FM1 band.
The volume at which the traffic news is transmitted
depends on the listening volume:
❒
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 maintained 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.
