REGIONAL MODE function

Some national broadcasters will transmit regional
programmes at certain times of the day (that vary
from region to region).
This function makes it possible to tune into local

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
or
buttons.The current status of the function appears on the
display:
❒"Regional On": function activated;
❒"Regional 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.
Note
If the AF and REG functions are on at the same
time, once a border between two regions is
crossed, the radio may not switch correctly to a
valid alternative frequency.

ANTI-THEFT PROTECTION
The radio is equipped with an anti-theft protection
system based on the exchange of information
between the radio and the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) on the car.
This system guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being entered each
time the radio power supply is disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the radio will
start to function, whereas if the comparison codes
are not the same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the device will ask
the user to enter the secret code according to the
procedure described in the paragraph below.Entering the secret code
When the radio is switched on, if the code is
requested, the display will show "Radio code" for
about 2 seconds followed by four dashes "----".
The code is made up of four numbers from 1 to 6,
each corresponding to one of the dashes.
To enter the first digit of the code, press the
corresponding button of the pre-selected stations
(from 1 to 6). Enter the other code digits in the
same way.
If the four digits are not entered within 20
seconds, the display will show "Enter code----".
If this occurs, it is not considered an incorrect code
entry.
284
SOUND-SYSTEM

After entering the fourth digit (within 20 seconds),
the car radio will start to work.
If an incorrect code is entered, the radio will emit
a sound and the display shows the text "Radio
blocked/wait" to notify the user of the need to
enter the correct code.
Each time the user enters an incorrect code, the
waiting time will gradually increase (1 min, 2 min,
4 min, 8 min, 16 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h,
16 h, 24 h) up to a maximum of 24 hours.
The waiting time will be shown on the display
with the text "Radio blocked/wait". After the text
has disappeared it is possible to start the code
entering procedure again.Code Card
This document certifies ownership of the car radio.
The Code Card shows the radio model, serial
number and secret code.
Note
Keep this Code Card in a safe place so that you
can give the information to the relevant authorities
if the car radio is stolen.
