SOUND-SYSTEM

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 RECEPTION
The 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 BROADCASTERS
If the incoming signal is weak, playback is automatically switched
from Stereo to Mono.

CD PLAYER
INTRODUCTION
This 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 PLAYER
To 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.
LOADING/EJECTING A CD
To load the CD, insert it gently into the slot to activate the motorised
loading system, which will position it correctly.
The CD can be loaded with radio off and the ignition key turned to
MAR: in this case the radio will remain off. When the radio is
turned on, the last source listened to prior to switching off will be
activated.When a CD is inserted the display will show the symbol “CD-IN”
and the text “CD Reading”. They will remain displayed for the
entire time required for the radio to read the CD tracks. When this
time has elapsed the radio will automatically start to play the first
track.
Press the
button with the radio on to activate the motorised
ejection of the CD. After ejection, the last audio source listened to
before playing the CD will be heard.
If the CD is not removed from the radio, it will automatically be
reloaded about 20 seconds later and the Tuner mode will be
activated (Radio).
The CD cannot be ejected if the radio is off.
If the ejected CD is reloaded without having removed it completely
from the slot, the radio will not switch to the CD source.
Possible error messages
If the CD loaded cannot be read (e.g. a CD ROM has been
inserted or the CD is inserted upside down or there is reading
error) the display will show the text “CD Disc error”.
The CD will then be ejected and the audio source activated prior to
the CD mode selection will be heard.
With an external audio source activated (“TA”, “ALARM” or
“Phone”), the CD that cannot be read will not be ejected until these
functions have ended. At the end, with the CD mode activated, the
display will show the text “CD Disc error” for a few seconds and
then the CD will be ejected.
