Look at the screen only and when it is
necessary and safe. If you need to look
at the screen for a long time, pull over
to a safe place so as not to be
distracted while driving.
Immediately stop using the system in
the event of a fault. Otherwise the
system might be damaged. Contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible
to have the system repaired.USB SOURCE
To activate the USB mode, insert the
corresponding device into the USB port
on the central tunnel in the car.
IMPORTANT NOTE After using a USB
recharging socket, disconnect the
device (smartphone), always removing
the cable from the vehicle socket first,
never from the device. Cables left flying
or connected incorrectly could
compromise correct recharging and/or
the USB socket condition.
NOTE The USB port handles data
transmission from the Pen Drive/
Smartphone, etc. and slow recharging
of an external device, which is not
guaranteed as it depends on the device
type/brand.
