RADIONAV
IMPORTANT NOTES
If there is a problem, the system should on-
ly be checked and repaired at an Alfa Romeo
Authorised Service.
If the temperature is particularly low, the dis-
play may take a while to reach optimum
brightness.
WARNING Never force the display move-
ment manually. For closing or opening the
display, exclusively use the suitable keys
(see page 14).
If the car is stopped for a while and the out-
side temperature is very high, the Radion-
avigator may go into “thermal protection”
mode, suspending operation until the tem-
perature in the passenger compartment re-
turns to acceptable levels.
CD
Dirt, scratches or any distortions on CDs
could cause problems and poor sound qual-
ity during playback. Follow these tips for op-
timum playback conditions:
❍
only use branded CDs:
❍
clean every CD thoroughly removing any
fingerprints or dust using a soft cloth.
Hold CDs by the outside edge and clean
them from the middle outwards;
❍
never use chemicals (e.g. anti-static
products or thinners or sprays) for clean-
ing as they could damage the surface of
the CDs;
❍
after listening, place CDs back in their
cases to avoid damaging them;
❍
do not expose CDs to direct sunlight,
high temperatures or damp for long pe-
riods;
❍
do not stick labels on the surface of the
CD and do not write on the recorded sur-
face using pens or pencils.
❍
do not use CDs that are clearly
scratched, flawed, distorted, etc. Using
discs like this will result in malfunctions
or damage to the player.
To achieve the best quality audio reproduc-
tion we recommend the use of original CD
supports. Correct operation is not guaran-
teed when CD-R/RW media are used that
were not correctly burned and/or with a
maximum capacity above 650 Mb.
IMPORTANT Do not use the protective
sleeves sold for CDs or discs with stabilizers,
etc. because they could get stuck in the in-
ternal mechanism and damage the disc.
