RADIO - DESCRIPTION
Description
A sophisticated Bose HIFI system with special HIFI speakers and an outside amplifier is available on request.
The system has been developed ad hoc for the vehicle: the acoustic properties of the passenger compartment have been carefully studied so that the amplifier and the speakers are ideally suited to the vehicle: optimum listening is available in any part of the passenger compartment.
Unlike the system fitted as standard, the Bose system includes:
- specific speakers and tweeters in the front doors - specific rear speakers and tweeters
- rear subwoofer speaker, located in the luggage compartment on the left - BOSE amplifier located in the luggage compartment on the left.
The Bose system is completed by a microphone, located in the centre console, which detects background noise in the passenger compartment: the signal is sent for amplification allowing the optimum adjustment and equalizing of the output levels.
The other components are the same as for the radio system:
- radio (different versions available)
- radio supply leads
- cables connecting the radio with the speakers;
- cable connected to a CD player;
- aerial with support mounted at the rear of the roof, coaxial cable and supply lead for aerial amplifier.
For everything about the "basic" system,

Description
The vehicle has a radio system comprising:
- radio (different versions are available: baseor CONNECT)
- front speakers (separate woofers and tweeters) located in the front doors;
- rear speakers (separate woofers and tweeters) located in the rear doors;
- radio supply cables
- leads connecting the radio to the speakers;
- fishpole antenna with base mounted on the rear of the roof, coaxial cable and supply cable for aerial amplifier.
A radio with a cassette player (CC) is fitted on the "basic" version.
A radio with a compact disc player (CD) can also be installed.
If a built-in radio-telephone-navigator is fitted, the radio is incorporated in the unit.
The radio is designed to operate the 10 -disc multiple CD-CHANGER located in the luggage compartment, on the right hand side.
if preparation for a cell phone is fitted

or a radio telephone
See E3570 INTEGRATED RADIO PHONE
, then the aerial is the dual function type (radio/GSM); if a navigator is also installed
then the aerial has three functions (radio/GSM/GPS).
It is also possible to fit a multi-polar cable connecting the radio to a CD player located in the boot, on the left hand side.

Description
The radio is a CAN node through which information is exchanged with the Body Computer and with the other electronic units.
The radio receives the vehicle on signal via the CAN and is operated according to the following logic:
- if the radio is on and the vehicle is off, the radio switches off;
- if the vehicle is switched on and the radio was on previously, the radio remains on;
- if the vehicle is switched on and the radio was off previously, the radio remains off;
- if the radio is left on with the ignition OFF, it switches off automatically after 20 minutes;
The radio is equipped with an anti-theft system through the connection of the radio at the CAN with the Body Computer
When a new radio is fitted on the vehicle a connection is made with the Body Computer which requests the radio code: this code, supplied by the manufacturer, is entered using the numerical keys, the Body Computer memorizes this code and verifies it each time the radio is turned on.

)
- The radio also controls the volume linked to the vehicle speed: the volume increases and decreases in relation to the speed of the vehicle: this information reaches the radio node via the CAN.
Some versions are equipped with a series of buttons on the steering wheel: these make it possible to replicate some of the commands which are acquired in the same way by the actual radio.
The radio controls shown on the radio display are also duplicated on the instrument panel.
