TIPS, CONTROLS AND GENERAL
INFORMATION

TIPS

Road safety
Learn how to use the various system functions
before setting off.
Read the instructions for the system carefully before
setting off.

WARNING

If the volume is too loud this can be
dangerous. Adjust the volume so that you

can still hear background noises (e.g. horns,
ambulances, police vehicles, etc.).

Reception conditions

Reception conditions change constantly while driving.
Reception may be interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges, or when you are far
away from the broadcaster.

IMPORTANT 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 is sensitive to scratching, liquids and

detergents. The display should not come into
contact with pointed or rigid objects which could
damage its surface. Do not press on the display
when cleaning it.

❒ prevent any liquid from entering the system: this

could be damaged beyond repair.

Only clean the front panel and the display
with a soft, clean, dry, anti-static cloth.
Cleaning and polishing products may

damage the surface. Do not use alcohol or similar
products to clean the panel or the display.

Important

In the event of a failure, the system should only be
checked and repaired at a Fiat Dealership.
If the temperature is particularly low, the display may
take a while to reach optimum brightness.
If the car is stopped for a while and the outside
temperature is very high, the system may go into
“thermal protection” mode, suspending operation
until the temperature in the passenger compartment
returns to acceptable levels.
