moment selected is played, the next
folder will be played.
WARNING
178)If the volume is too loud this could be
dangerous for the driver and for
passengers when driving in traffic. Always
adjust the volume so that you can still
hear background noises.
179)Multimedia CDs include data tracks in
addition to the audio tracks. Playing this
type of CD can cause hissing at a volume
that may jeopardise road safety as well
as cause damage to the final stages and
the speakers.
180)Using some of the system functions
whilst driving can distract attention away
from the road, risking an accident or other
serious consequences; they should
therefore be used only when driving
conditions allow it and, if necessary, only
with the vehicle stationary.
181)WARNING: Looking at the system
when driving can divert attention from the
road, with the risk of accidents or other
serious consequences. Do not change the
system settings or load data while driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner
before carrying out these operations.
Adopting these precautions is important
since setting or changing some functions
may require the driver to be distracted from
the road and remove their hands from the
steering wheel.182)Looking at the display for a long time:
while driving, do not use any function
that requires looking at the display for a
long time. Pull over in a safe and legal
manner before attempting to access a
function of the system that requires
prolonged attention. Even occasional short
glances at the display may be hazardous
if your attention is diverted from driving at a
critical moment.
183)Setting the volume: do not turn the
volume up too high. Keep the volume at a
level where you can still hear outside traffic
and emergency signals while driving.
Driving while unable to hear these sounds
may cause an accident.
WARNING
73)Do not press the eject button
accidentally when inserting a CD.

Uconnect RADIO
184) 185) 186) 187) 188) 189) 190) 191) 192) 193)
The Uconnect Radio was designed
according to the specific characteristics
of the passenger compartment, with a
customised design that perfectly
matches matching the style of the
dashboard.
The instructions for use are given below
and we recommend you to read them
carefully.
TIPS
Familiarise yourself with the various
functions of the Uconnect Radio (for
example, storing the stations) before
starting to drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change
constantly while driving. Reception may
be interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges,
especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic
bulletins.
Care and maintenance
Only clean the cover with a soft,
anti-static cloth. Cleaning and polishing
products may damage the surface.ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The Uconnect Radio is equipped with
an anti-theft protection system based
on the exchange of information
between the Uconnect Radio and the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
present on the vehicle.
This system guarantees maximum
safety and prevents the secret code
from being entered each time the
Uconnect Radio power supply is
disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
Uconnect Radio will start to operate,
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 Uconnect Radio is switched
on, if the password is requested, the
display will show "Radio code" for
about 2 seconds, followed by
four dashes "----".
The secret code is made up of four
digits from 1 to 6, each corresponding
to one of the dashes.To enter the first digit of the code, press
the button corresponding to 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 shows the text
"Enter code----".Ifthis occurs, it is
not considered an incorrect code entry.
After entering the fourth digit (within
20 seconds), the Uconnect Radio will
start to operate.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
Uconnect 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,1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h)
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.
Vehicle radio passport
This document certifies ownership of
the Uconnect Radio. The radio
passport shows the Uconnect Radio
model, serial number and secret code.

IMPORTANT Keep the radio passport in
a safe place so that you can give the
information to the relevant authorities if
the Uconnect Radio is stolen.

passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,

ownership documents.
