especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.

increased when receiving traffic
information and news.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
85) 86)
Observe the following precautions to
ensure the system is fully operational:
the display lens should not come
into contact with pointed or rigid
objects which could damage its
surface; use a soft, dry anti-static cloth
to clean and do not press.
never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the display lens.
Prevent any liquid from entering the
system: this could damage it beyond
repair.
MULTIMEDIA DEVICES
IMPORTANT Some multimedia player
may not be compatible with the
Uconnect™ system.
Only use devices (e.g. USB flash drives)
from safe sources on the car. Devices
from unknown sources could contain
software infected by viruses which,
if installed on the car, could increase the
vulnerability of the car's electric/
electronic systems to hacking.
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will
show "Please enter Anti-Theft Code"
followed by the screen showing a
keypad to enter the secret code.
The secret code has four numbers from
0 to 9: to insert the code numbers,
rotate the BROWSE/ENTER dial and
press to confirm.
After entering the fourth number the
system will start functioning.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code" to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
