INTRODUCTIONADVICE
The sound system, of fixed type, is
fitted with audiocassette player
(radio with audiocassettes) or CD
player (radio with Compact Disc
player) or CD MP3 player (radio
with Compact Disc MP3 player) and
sound graphic equaliser. The sound
system has been designed according
to the specific passenger compartment characteristics. The special
design is in line with the style of the
dashboard.
The radio 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.
The CD Changer for 5 discs, if present, is housed in the upper glove
box of the dashboard, on passenger
side.
Below 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 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.
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.).
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.
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.
Do not expose cassettes to the sun
or high temperatures and put them
back in their boxes after use. To
obtain optimum playing conditions
do not use poor quality cassettes
and in any case no longer than C-90.
To clean the front panel only use a
soft, antistatic cloth. Cleaning and
polishing products might spoil the
surface.
Cassettes
To obtain optimum playing conditions we give the following advice:
– do not use poor quality cassettes,
with distortions or labels detached;
– never leave the cassette in the
radio when not in use;
– never insert other objects in the
cassette slot;
– do not expose cassettes to the
sun or high temperatures;
– put cassettes 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
taper of the non abrasive type;
– preferably use C-60 cassettes and
in any case no longer than C-90 to
ensure the best playing conditions;
– avoid inserting cassettes with
damage tapes in the radio, especially
if using C-90 cassettes, as the tape
might come out and get stuck;
– do not lubricate the cassette
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. For top performance conditions, we give the following advice:
– Only use Compact Discs which
have the following brand:
– 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 with pens or pencils.
To remove a Compact Disc from
its container, press the centre and
raise the disc carefully, holding it by
the outer circumference.
Removing the disc

use a soft cloth starting from the
centre of the Compact Disc outwards.
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 pent, etc.
Ball-point pen
Roughness
To obtain the best sound quality, use
original CD supports. Correct operation is not ensured if not correctly
written CD-R/RW supports and/or
with capacity higher than 650 MB are
used.

No
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 if the CD is copyprotected, the system may need few
seconds before starting to play it.
Notes on Compact Discs
Do not stick labels on the surface
of the Compact Disc or write on the
surface with pens or pencils.
No
Do not use solvents like stain
removers, antistatic sprays or thinners in commerce for cleaning
Compact Discs.
No
Do not use highly scratched,
cracked, or distorted discs, etc. The
use of these discs will involve malfunctioning or damage to the player.
No
Do not expose Compact Discs to
direct sunlight or any source of heat.

band and the storing section (FM1,
FM2, FM3, FMAST, MW, LW,
AMAST);
– briefly press (less than 1 second)
one of the six station storage buttons.
22
The display will show the station
name (if any) and frequency, and on
the bottom line of the display will be
shown “Pn” where n corresponds
to the active presetting number.
In bands FM1, FM2, FM3 and
FMAST, if reception is poor and the
AF alternative frequency search
function is active, the station with
the strongest signal that is broadcasting the same programme will be
sought automatically.
AF function (alternative frequency search)
To turn on/off the alternative frequency search function (AF function), press briefly (less than 1 sec-
PTY
ond) the 8 (AF
) button. The
name RDS (if available) stays on the
display and if the AF function has
been turned on the messageAFSWITCHING: ON is displayed.
– “AF SWITCHING: ON” =
alternative frequency search on
– “AF SWITCHING: OFF” =
alternative frequency search off.
When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two
cases may occur:
– With “AF SWITCHING: ON”
the RDS system activates automatic
tuning of the optimum frequency of
the station chosen, with the stations
enabled, therefore the radio is automatically tuned to the station with
the strongest signal that is broadcasting the same programme. During
the journey it will thus be possible to
continue listening to the station chosen without having to change the frequency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the
car is crossing.
– With “AF SWITCHING:
OFF” the radio will not tune the
strongest station automatically and it
will have to be found manually using
the tuner buttons.
TA function (traffic information)
Certain stations in the FM band (in
FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST storing
sections) are enabled to also broadcast information about traffic conditions. When listening to traffic information the display shows "TRAF-FIC INFO" and the current station
(e.g. station name) alternately.
To turn the TA (traffic information)
function on/off, briefly press (less
than 1 second) the 9 (TA) button. If
the function is on the display shows
“TA-ON”.
With the TA function on, at the
start of the traffic bulletin the radio
stops temporarily the current station or the cassette/CD in order to
broadcast traffic information. This is
possible only if the current station
selected and the station broadcasting
traffic information are connected for
the EON function.

ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The radio is fitted with an antitheft
protection system based on a fourdigit secret code that makes the
radio unusable.
CODE Card
This the document that certifies
possession of the radio. The Code
Card contains the radio model, serial number and secret code.
Keep the Code Card in a safe place,
not in the car.
Secret coding
When the secret coding is activated and radio is removed from the
car battery (or 30 positive terminal),
the radio is protected electronically.
The radio can only be switched on
entering your personal secret code.
CAUTIONS
If it is very cold inside the car and
the CD player is used a little after
turning the heater on, a film of damp
may form on the Compact Disc or
on the player optics and the sound
may not be perfect. In this case do
not use the CD player for at least an
hour, so that the condensation dissolves naturally and normal operation is resumed.
Driving on rough roads with heavy
vibrations may cause skipping when
the CD player is working.
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 If using copy-protected CDs, a few seconds may be required before the system starts playback.

54
The display will show the station
name (if any) and frequency, and on
the bottom line of the display will be
shown “Pn” where n corresponds
to the active presetting number.
In bands FM1, FM2 and FM3 if
reception is poor and the AF alternative frequency search function is
active, the station with the strongest
signal that is broadcasting the same
programme will be sought automatically.
AF function
(alternative frequency search)
To turn on/off the alternative frequency search function (AF function), press briefly (less than 1 second) the 8 (AF PTY) button. The
name RDS (if available) stays on the
display and if the AF function has

alternative frequency search on
– “AF SWITCHING: OFF” =
alternative frequency search off.
When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two
cases may occur:
– With “AF SWITCHING: ON”
the RDS system activates automatic
tuning of the optimum frequency of
the station chosen, with the stations
enabled, therefore the radio is automatically tuned to the station with
the strongest signal that is broadcasting the same programme. During the
journey it will thus be possible to
continue listening to the station chosen without having to change the frequency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the car
is crossing.
– With “AF SWITCHING: OFF”
the radio will not tune the strongest
station automatically and it will have
to be found manually using the tuner
buttons.
TA function
(traffic information)
Certain stations in the FM band (in
FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST storing
sections) are enabled to also broadcast information about traffic conditions. When listening to traffic information the display shows “TRAF-FIC INFO” and the current station
(e.g. station name) alternately.
To turn the TA (traffic information)
function on/off, briefly press (less
than 1 second) the 9 (TA) button. If
the function is on the display shows
“TA-ON”.
With the TA function on, at the
start of the traffic bulletin the radio
stops temporarily the current station or the CD in order to broadcast
traffic information. This is possible
only if the current station selected
and the station broadcasting traffic
information are connected for the
EON function.

CD/MP3 reading
When a CD-ROM is inserted in the
magazine, two operations will be carried out:
-
1) Scanning of the tracks inside the
CD for the file audio detection. The
audio tracks are the first to be detected and this means that the sound
system plays only these ones. The
song name with a flashing indication
“SCAN” is shown on the display (ex.
“MIDNIGHT MOTION SCAN”).
2) Reading of the MP3 tracks to determine the song and folder structure.
The indication “READING DISC” is
shown on the display at this stage. It
takes about 2 minutes to read a complex MP3 structure (made of several
sessions with many folders and songs)
-
on a CD-ROM.
To guarantee optimum playing, use
top quality CDs duplicated at as low
as possible speed.
The CD-ROM reading will be termi-
nated in the following cases:
– In case of a correct CD-ROM reading and MP3 track identification. In this
case “MP3” appears on the display
and the playing starts from the first
track and the first folder (see next
paragraph
PLAY MODE
).
– In case the CD-ROM reading is not
ended after 2 minutes. “CHECKDISC” appears on the display for
about 5 seconds. In this case the sound
system changes its audio source and
goes back to TUNER mode.
– If MP3 is not found. In this case
“NO MP3 FILES” appears on the
display for about 5 seconds. The system changes its audio source and goes
back to TUNER mode.

Play mode
During a CD-ROM playing where
MP3 tracks have been recorded, the
sound system display will indicate the
song title and its playing time (ex.
“MIDNIGHT MOTION 4:37”).
The following operations can be carried out while playing:
– single or continuous scroll on the
song title
– ascending or descending scroll
through the tracks in single, continuous or multiple mode.
– ascending or descending scroll
through the folders (see next para-
FOLDER STRUCTURE
graph
).
DISP
Function enabling to change displayed
settings of the various info present on
CD (e.g.: tracks, folder, singer's name,
album title, etc.). This function is activated by pressing button 3 (4 DISP)
for over 2 seconds, then use the button/knob 10 (VOL PUSH ON/OFF)
to select the required display setting.
In MP3 the sound system:
– plays only the MP3 tracks
– plays the tracks in an alphabetic/numerical order for any folder (ordered
according to the same way) (it is better to place a number, for ex. “01”,
“02” or “001” “002” before each file
name)
– comes back to the beginning of the
last track each time the radio is
switched on.
During the track selection (see the
paragraph
WARD/BACKWARD
TRACK SELECTION(FOR
) the folder number,
-
the song number and title will be displayed (ex. “3/13 MIDNIGHT MO-TION“).
The sound system accumulates the
number of pressures on the preselection buttons (from 1 to 6) to make
easier the selection, and it skips only
once, as it was a single request.
IMPORTANT MP3 tracks recorded with the variable bit speed method
may cause differences in the playing
time indicated on the display.
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.
Folder structure
The sound system with MP3 player:
– recognizes only the folders containing MP3 files
– if the CD-ROM MP3 files contain
several “sub-folders”, their structure
become a single-level one, that is the
“sub-folders” become main folders
(see the following example).
