The sound system has been designed in accordance with the special features of the
passenger compartment, with a personalised design that blends with the style of
the dashboard.
The sound system is installed in a userfriendly position for the driver and passenger and the graphics on the front panel
make location of the controls quick, facilitating use.
In the following pages you will find the instructions for use, which you are advised
to read through carefully. The instructions
also contain the procedure for controlling
the CD Changer (where provided) through
the sound system. For the instructions for
use of the CD Changer refer to the specific
manual.
ADVICE
Road safety
You are advised to learn how to use the
various sound system functions (e.g.: storing stations) before starting to drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change constantly
when driving. Reception can be disturbed
by the presence of mountains, buildings,
bridges particularly when far away from
the broadcaster received.
IMPORTANT When receiving traffic information, the volume may be higher than
normal.
WARNING
Too high a volume when dri-
ving can put the driver’s life at
risk and that of other people. Therefore the volume should always be adjusted in such a way that it is always
possible to hear the noises of the surrounding environment (e.g.: horns, ambulance, police sirens, etc.).

the following brand:
COMPACT
DISC PLAYER
❒
Carefully clean all Compact Discs of fingerprints and dust using a soft cloth. Support Compact Discs from the outer circumference and clean from the centre
outwards;
❒
Never use chemical products for cleaning (e.g.: spray cans, antistatic or thinners) as they might damage the surface
of Compact Discs;
❒
After use, put Compact Discs back in
their container, to avoid marks or
scratches that may cause skipping when
playing;
❒
Do not expose Compact Discs to direct
sunlight, high temperatures or damp for
prolonged lengths of time to prevent
them from bending;
❒
Do not stick labels or write on the
recorded surface of Compact Discs.
To remove a Compact Disc from its container, press the centre and raise the disc
carefully, holding it by the outer circumference.
Always hold Compact Discs by the outer
circumference. Never touch the surface.
To remove fingerprints and dust, use a
soft cloth starting from the centre of the
Compact Disc outwards.
Do not use highly scratched, cracked, or
distorted discs, etc. The use of these discs
will involve malfunctioning or damage to
the player.
For best playing use only original CDs.
Proper operation is not guaranteed when
using R/RW CDs not properly mastered
and/or with max. capacity exceeding 650
MB.
IMPORTANT Do not use the protective
sheets for CD in commerce or discs with
stabilisers, etc. as they might get stuck in
the internal mechanism and damage the
disc.

IMPORTANT Should copy-protected
CDs be used, then, few seconds may be
required for playing them. Moreover, due
to the proliferation of always new and different protection methods, it is not guaranteed that the CD player can play whatever protected disc. Copy protection is
often indicated on the CD cover in small
letters or hard to read characters. Usually it is indicated by writings like: “COPY
CONTROL”, “COPY PROTECTED”,
“THIS CD CANNOT BE PLAYED ON A
PC/MAC”, or it is identified by symbols
like:
Protected discs (and their cover) very often
are not marked with the audio CD identification symbol:
IMPORTANT The CD player can read
most of the compression systems currently on sale (e.g.: LAME, BLADE, XING,
FRAUNHOFER) however, due to the
evolution of these systems, reading of all
compression formats is not guaranteed.
IMPORTANT When loading a multi-session CD, only the first session will be
played.

READING MP3 CD
Inserting a CD-ROM into the proper slot
will start two stages:
– Scanning all CD tracks to find audio files.
Audio files take priority over the other
files and their identification enables the
sound system to play just these files. The
display will show the name and the word
“SCAN” flashing (e.g. “MIDNIGHT MOTION SCAN”).
– Reading all MP3 files to determine the
structure of folders and tracks. During this
stage the display will show the message
“READING DISC”. To read a complex
MP3 file structure (made up of different
sessions with several folders and files), approximately 2 minutes can be required.
For optimal playing use only top quality
CDs mastered at as low as possible speed.
CD-ROM reading will be interrupted in
the following cases:
– correct CD-ROM reading with MP3 files
identification. In this event the display will
show the “MP3” icon and track playback
will start from the first file and first folder (see next paragraph “TRACK PLAYING MODE”);
– if after 2 minutes the CD-ROM reading
is not ended. The display will show, for
about 5 seconds, the message “CHECK
DISC”. In this event the sound system will
change the sound source and return to the
Tuner (Radio) mode.
– if no MP3 file is found. In this event the
display will show, for about 5 seconds, the
message “NO MP3 FILES”. In this event
the sound system will change the sound
source and return to the Tuner (Radio)
mode.
28
TRACK PLAYING MODE
When playing a CD-ROM with MP3 files,
the sound system will display the track
name and play time (e.g. “MIDNIGHT
MOTION 4:37”).
During playback the following operations
can be performed:
– continuous or single scroll on track
name
– scrolling tracks up or down according to
single, multiple or continuous mode
– scrolling folders up or down (see next
paragraph “FOLDER STRUCTURE”).
DISP FUNCTION
This function enables to change display
settings for the different CD info (e.g. files,
folder, singer’s name, album name, etc.).
To turn this function on keep button 4
DISP
pressed for over 2 seconds and then use
the button/knob ON/OFF to select the info to display.
In MP3 mode, the sound system will:
– play MP3 files only
– play the tracks in alphabetic-numeric order for each folder (also ordered with the
same criteria) (it is recommended to put
a number before the file name, e.g. “01”,
“02” or “001”, “002”)
– return to the start of the last file each
time the sound system is turned on.
During track selection (see paragraph
track selection (forward/backward), the
display will show the folder number and
the track number and name (e.g. “3/13
MIDNIGHT MOTION”).
To facilitate track selection, the sound system stores the number of pushes on preset buttons (1 to 6) and then will skip once
like for a single request.
IMPORTANT MP3 files recorded with the
variable bit-rate method could produce
discrepancies when displaying the track
play time.
IMPORTANT The CD player can read
most of the compression systems currently on sale (e.g.: LAME, BLADE, XING,
FRAUNHOFER) however, due to the
evolution of these systems, reading of all
compression formats is not guaranteed.
