TIPS CONTROLS AND
GENERAL INFORMATION
Steering Wheel Audio Controls
The steering wheel audio controls are located
on the rear surface of the steering wheel.
Left Switch
• Push the switch up or down to search for
the next listenable station or select the next
or previous CD track.• Push the button in the center to select the
next preset station (radio) or to change CDs
if equipped with a CD Player.
• Push the button in the center to change
modes AM/FM/CD or Media.
Right Switch
• Push the switch up or down to increase or
decrease the volume.
• Push the button in the center to mute the
radio.
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.
The volume may be increased when receiving
traffic alerts and news.
Care And Maintenance
Observe the following precautions to ensure
the system is fully operational:
•The display lens should not come into con-
tact 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, gas and derivatives to
clean the display lens.
•Prevent any liquid from entering the sys-
tem: this could damage it beyond repair.
Anti-Theft 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.
See an authorized dealer for further information.Steering Wheel Audio Controls
