2013 Alfa Romeo Giulietta transmission

REGIONAL MODE function(regional transmission reception)
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 (regional)
broadcasters automatically (see “EON function” paragraph).
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.
NoteIf 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.
MP3 DISPLAY function(MP3 CD data display)
This function makes it possible to select the information shown by
the display when listening to a CD containing MP3 tracks.
The function can only be selected if an MP3 CD is inserted: in this
case “MP3 Display” will appear on the display.
To change the function, use the
or
buttons.
The following settings are available:
❒“Title” (track title, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Author” (track author, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Album” (track album, if the ID3-TAG is available);
❒“Folder” name (name assigned to the folder);
❒“File” name (name assigned to the MP3 file).

SOUND-SYSTEM

AUTOSTORE FUNCTION(automatic station storing)
To activate the AutoSTore function, hold the FM AS button down
until an acoustic signal is heard. With this function, the radio
automatically stores the 6 stations with the strongest signal in
decreasing order on the FMA frequency band.
During the automatic storing process, the word “Autostore” flashes
on the display.
Press the FM AS button again to interrupt the AutoSTore function:
the radio will again tune into the station listened to before the
activation of the function.
When the AutoSTore function has finished, the radio will
automatically tune into the first preset station on the FMA band
stored on the preset side 1.
The stations that have a strong signal in the preselected band at
that moment, are then automatically stored on the buttons
numbered from 1 to 6.
When the AutoSTore function is activated within the MW band, the
FMA band is automatically selected and the function is performed
there.
NoteSometimes the AutoSTore function is not able to find 6
stations with a strong signal. In this case, the strongest stations will
be duplicated in the free preset buttons.
NoteWhen the AutoSTore function is activated, the stations that
were previously stored in the FMA band are deleted.
EMERGENCY ALARM RECEPTIONThe radio is configured to receive emergency alerts in RDS mode in
exceptional circumstances or where dangerous situations are
present (earthquakes, floods, etc.) if these are being transmitted by
the current broadcaster.
This function is activated automatically and cannot be turned off.
The word “Alarm” will be shown in the display during the
transmission of an emergency announcement. The volume of the
radio will change during this announcement in the same way as
during a traffic bulletin.

EON FUNCTION
(Enhanced Other Network)In some countries, there are circuits that group multiple
broadcasters that transmit traffic information together. In this case,
the programme of the station that is being listened to will be
temporarily interrupted to:
❒receive traffic alerts (only with the TA function activated);
❒listen to regional transmissions each time these are broadcast by
one of the broadcasters on the same circuit.STEREOPHONIC BROADCASTERSIf the incoming signal is weak, playback is automatically switched
from Stereo to Mono.
CD PLAYERINTRODUCTIONThis section describes the variants regarding the operation of the
CD player: as far as the operation of the radio is concerned, refer
to the description in the “Functions and Adjustments” chapter.SELECTING THE CD PLAYERTo activate the CD player built into the equipment, proceed as
follows:
❒insert a CD with the equipment switched on: the first track will
start to play;
or
❒if a CD has already been loaded, switch on the radio and then
briefly press the CD button to select the “CD” operating mode:
the last track listened to will start to play.
It is advisable to use original CDs to ensure optimum playback. If
CD-R/RWs are used, we recommend using good quality media
mastered at the slowest speed possible.
