Cd Player; Introduction; Selecting The Cd Player; Loading/Ejecting A Cd - Alfa Romeo 159 Owner's Handbook Manual

INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the variants regard-
ing the operation of the CD player: as far as
the operation of the radio is concerned, re-
fer to the description in the "Functions and
settings" chapter.

SELECTING THE CD PLAYER

To activate the CD player built-into the equip-
ment, proceed as follows:
❒ load a CD with the equipment switched
on: the first track will start to play;
or
❒ if a CD has already been loaded, turn on
the car radio and then briefly press the
CD button to select the "CD" operating
mode: the last track listened to will start
to play.
It is advisable to use original CDs to ensure
optimum playback. If CD-R/RWs are used,
we recommend using good quality disc burnt
at the slowest speed possible.

LOADING/EJECTING A CD

To load the CD, insert it gently into the slot
to activate the motorised loading system,
which will position it correctly.
The CD can be loaded with the radio
switched off and the ignition key in the MAR-
on position: in this case the radio will remain
off. When the car radio is turned on, the last
source listened to prior to switching off will
be activated.
When a CD is loaded the display will show
"CD-IN" and the words "CD Reading". They
will remain displayed for the entire time re-
quired for the radio to read the CD tracks.
When this time has elapsed the radio will
automatically start to play the first track.

Press the ˚ button, with the device turned
on, to activate the CD motorised ejecting sys-
tem. After ejection, the last audio source lis-
tened to before playing the CD will be heard.
If the CD is not removed from the car ra-
dio, it will automatically be reloaded about
20 seconds later and the Tuner mode will
be tuned into (Radio).
The CD cannot be ejected if the car radio is
off.
If the ejected CD is loaded without having
removed it completely from the slot, the ra-
dio will not switch to the CD source.
