ADVICE
RADIO WITH
TAPES PLAYER
RADIO WITH
COMPACT DISC PLAYER
Fiat Panda sound system, fitted with tape player (radio
with tapes player), or CD player (radio with Compact
Disc player) or MP3 CD player (radio with MP3 CD
player) 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 cannot be adapted to
other vehicles and for this reason it cannot be
removed.
The radio is installed in a user-friendly position for the
driver and passenger and the graphics on the front
panel make location of the controls quick, facilitating
use.
The CD Changer for 5 discs (if provided), is housed in
the glove compartment.
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 (if provided) through the
radio. For the instructions for use of the CD Changer
refer to the specific manual.
Road safety
You are advised to learn how to use the various radio
functions (e.g.: storing stations) before starting to
drive.
Reception conditions
Reception conditions change constantly when driving.
Reception may be disturbed by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges particularly when far
away from the station being listened to.
IMPORTANT When receiving traffic information, the
volume may be higher than normal.

COMPACT DISC AND MP3 CD PLAYER

WARNING
Too high a volume when driving 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.).
Care and maintenance
The radio structure ensures long operation with no
need for particular maintenance. In the event of a fault,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
To clean the front panel only use a soft, antistatic
cloth. Cleaning and polishing products might spoil the
surface.
Tapes
To obtain optimum playing conditions we give the
following advice:
❒ do not use poor quality tapes, with distortions or
labels detached;
❒ never leave the tape in the radio when not in use;
❒ never insert other objects in the tape slot;
❒ do not leave tapes in direct sunlight or expose them
to excessive heat or moisture;
❒ put tapes back in their boxes after use;
❒ over time, dirt on the playing head caused by tapes
may reduce the high notes when playing. You are
therefore advised to clean the head routinely using a
special cleaner tape of the non abrasive type;
❒ preferably use C-60 tapes. Do not use tapes longer
than C-90 to ensure constant, optimal playback.
Moreover, longer tapes are very thin and can easily
break;
❒ avoid using cassettes with slack tape, especially C-90
tapes. The tape could come out of the cassette and
block the mechanism. However, if the player
detects slack tape or similar problems, the cassette
will be ejected automatically;
❒ do not lubricate the tape mechanism;
❒ do not touch the player head with magnetic or hard
objects.
Compact Disc
Remember that dirt, marks or distortion on Compact
Disc can cause skipping. To obtain optimum playing
conditions we give the following advice:
❒ Only use Compact Discs which have the following
brand:
RADIO WITH
TAPES PLAYER
RADIO WITH
COMPACT DISC PLAYER
RADIO WITH
COMPACT DISC AND MP3 CD PLAYER
5
RADIO WITH
TAPES PLAYER
RADIO WITH
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 on the CD surface, nor write on
the recorded surface by using pencils or pens.
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.
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.
New discs may be rough around the edges. When
these discs are used, the player might not work or the
sound might skip. To remove the roughness from the
edge of the disc use a ball-point pen, etc.

ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The radio is fitted with an antitheft protection system
based on a secret code. This code is stored by the
sound system and shall be entered again each time the
sound system power is disconnected (e.g.: battery
disconnection).
The message “CODE” will appear on the display
during the code entry procedure. The sound system
will only start working once the correct code is
entered.
The protection system makes the sound system
useless if it is removed from the dashboard.
IMPORTANT The secret code shall be used in the
event of next installation of the sound system on
another car, different from the original one.
RADIO WITH
TAPES PLAYER
RADIO WITH
COMPACT DISC PLAYER
On multimedia CDs in addition to sound tracks also data tracks are recorded.
Playing one of these CDs may cause rustling and such a volume as to compromise road safety, as
well as causing damage to the final stages and speakers.

Entering the secret code
Entry of the secret code is required to allow the radio
to work after each reconnection to the car electric
system.
Connecting the radio to the car supply, the display
shows the word “CODE” for about 2 seconds,
followed by four dashes “----”.
The secret code comprises four figures from 1 to 6,
each corresponding to one of the dashes.
To enter the first digit of the code, press the
corresponding key of the preset stations (from 1 to 6).
Enter the other code digits in the same way.
If the four figures are not entered within 20 seconds,
the display shows the word “CODE” for 2 seconds
and then four dashes “----”. This is not to be
considered as an incorrect code entry.
After entering the fourth digit (within 20 seconds), the
radio starts working.
If a wrong code is entered, the radio sounds a “beep”,
the display shows the word “CODE” for 2 seconds
and then four dashes “----” to warn the user that it is
necessary to enter the correct code.
Every time the user enters a wrong code, the waiting
time increases gradually (1 min, 2 min, 4 min, 8 min, 16
min, 30 min, 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h) until reaching a
maximum of 24 hours.
The waiting time will be shown on the display with the
word “WAIT”. When this goes off it is possible to
start the new code entry procedure.
CODE Card
This the document that certifies possession of the
radio. The Code Card contains the radio model, serial
number and secret code.
The secret code shall be entered again each time the
sound system power is disconnected.
IMPORTANT Keep the Code Card carefully to be
able to give the related data to the competent
authorities in the event of theft.
