PHONE SET-UPIf a hands-free kit is installed on the car, when there is an incoming
phone call the radio audio will be connected to the telephone
output. The telephone audio always arrives at a fixed volume, but it
can be adjusted during a conversation using the ON/OFF
button/knob.
The fixed telephone audio volume can be adjusted using the
"SPEECH VOLUME" function in the Menu (where the function is
provided). The word "PHONE" will appear on the display during
the deactivation of the audio for the phone call.ANTI-THEFT PROTECTIONThe 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 avoids the entry of
the secret code 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
numbers in the same way.
If the four digits are not entered within 20 seconds, the display will
show “Enter code----”.Ifthisoccurs, it is not considered an
incorrect code entry.
After entering the fourth digit (within 20 seconds), the radio will
start to operate.
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 entry procedure again.
