If the check has a positive outcome, the  
radio will start to function, whereas if  
the comparison codes are not the  
same or if the electronic control unit  
(Body Computer) is replaced, the  
device will ask the user to enter the  
secret code according to the procedure  
described in the paragraph below.  
Each time the user enters an incorrect  
code, the waiting time will gradually  
increase (1 min, 2 min, 4 min, 8 min, 16  
min, 30 min,1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h)  
up to a maximum of 24 hours.  
RADIO  
178) 179) 180) 181) 182) 183)  
The radio has been designed according  
to the specifications of the passenger  
compartment, with a personalised  
design matching the style of the  
dashboard perfectly.  
The waiting time will be shown on the  
display with the text "Radio blocked/  
wait". After the text has disappeared it  
is possible to start the code entering  
procedure again.  
TIPS  
Entering the secret code  
Road safety  
When the radio is switched on, if the  
password is requested, the display will  
show "Radio code" for about 2  
seconds, followed by four dashes "- - -  
-".  
Please, learn how to use all different  
radio functions (e.g. save stations)  
before beginning to drive.  
Vehicle radio passport  
This document certifies the ownership  
of the vehicle radio. The radio passport  
shows the radio model, serial number  
and secret code.  
Care and maintenance  
The secret code is made up of four  
digits from 1 to 6, each corresponding  
to one of the dashes.  
Clean the cover with a soft anti-static  
cloth only. Cleaning and polishing  
products may damage the surface.  
IMPORTANT Keep the radio passport in  
a safe place so that you can give the  
information to the relevant authorities if  
the radio is stolen.  
To enter the first digit of the code, press  
the button corresponding to the  
pre-selected stations (from 1 to 6).  
Enter the other code digits in the same  
way.  
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION  
The radio is equipped with an anti-theft  
protection system based on the  
exchange of information between the  
radio and the electronic control unit  
(Body Computer) present on the  
vehicle.  
In the case of loss of the vehicle radio  
passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,  
taking an ID document and the vehicle  
ownership documents.  
If the four digits are not entered within  
20 seconds, the display shows the text  
"Enter code - - - -". If this occurs, it is  
not considered an incorrect code entry.  
After entering the fourth digit (within  
20 seconds), the car radio will work.  
If an incorrect code is entered, the radio  
will emit a sound and the display  
shows the text "Radio blocked/wait" to  
notify the user of the need to enter  
the correct code.  
This system guarantees maximum  
safety and prevents the secret code  
from being entered each time the radio  
power supply is disconnected.

182) Looking at the display for a long time:  
while driving, do not use any function  
that requires looking at the display for a  
long time. Pull over in a safe and legal  
manner before attempting to access a  
function of the system that requires  
prolonged attention. Even occasional short  
glances at the display may be hazardous  
if your attention is diverted from driving at a  
critical moment.  
"Pause" function  
WARNING  
To pause the CD player, press the  
button. The words "CD Pause" will  
appear on the display.  
178) If the volume is too loud this could be  
dangerous for the driver and for  
passengers when driving in traffic. Always  
adjust the volume so that you can still  
hear background noises.  
To resume listening to the track, press  
the button again. If another audio  
source is selected, the pause function  
is deactivated.  
179) Multimedia CDs include data tracks in  
addition to the audio tracks. Playing this  
type of CD can cause hissing at a volume  
that may jeopardise road safety as well  
as cause damage to the final stages and  
the speakers.  
183) Setting the volume: do not turn the  
volume up too high. Keep the volume at a  
level where you can still hear outside traffic  
and emergency signals while driving.  
Driving while unable to hear these sounds  
may cause an accident.  
CD MP3 PLAYER  
In addition to playing normal audio  
CDs, the car radio can also play  
CD-ROMs on which MP3 format  
compressed audio files are recorded.  
The radio operates as described in the  
"CD Player" chapter when an ordinary  
audio CD is inserted.  
180) Using some of the system functions  
whilst driving can distract attention away  
from the road, risking an accident or other  
serious consequences; they should  
therefore be used only when driving  
conditions allow it and, if necessary, only  
with the vehicle stationary.  
WARNING  
72) Do not press the eject button  
accidentally when inserting a CD.  
Selecting next/previous folder  
Press the button to select one of the  
next folders or press the button to  
select a previous folder.  
181) WARNING: Looking at the system  
when driving can divert attention from the  
road, with the risk of accidents or other  
serious consequences. Do not change the  
system settings or load data while driving.  
Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner  
before carrying out these operations.  
Adopting these precautions is important  
since setting or changing some functions  
may require the driver to be distracted from  
the road and remove their hands from the  
steering wheel.  
The display will show the number and  
the name of the folder (e.g. “DIR 2  
XXXXXX”).  
If no other folder/track is selected  
during the next 2 seconds, the first  
track contained in the new folder will be  
played.  
If the last track in the folder at that  
moment selected is played, the next  
folder will be played.

min, 30 min,1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h)  
up to a maximum of 24 hours.  
TIPS  
If the check has a positive outcome, the  
Uconnect Radio will start to operate,  
whereas if the comparison codes  
are not the same or if the electronic  
control unit (Body Computer) is  
replaced, the device will ask the user to  
enter the secret code according to  
the procedure described in the  
paragraph below.  
Familiarise yourself with the various  
functions of the Uconnect Radio (for  
example, storing the stations) before  
starting to drive.  
Reception conditions  
Reception conditions change  
constantly while driving. Reception may  
be interfered with by the presence of  
mountains, buildings or bridges,  
especially when you are far away from  
the broadcaster.  
Entering the secret code  
The waiting time will be shown on the  
display with the text "Radio blocked/  
wait". After the text has disappeared it  
is possible to start the code entering  
procedure again.  
When the Uconnect Radio is switched  
on, if the password is requested, the  
display will show "Radio code" for  
about 2 seconds, followed by  
four dashes "- - - -".  
IMPORTANT The volume may be  
increased when receiving traffic  
bulletins.  
The secret code is made up of four  
digits from 1 to 6, each corresponding  
to one of the dashes.  
Vehicle radio passport  
This document certifies ownership of  
the Uconnect Radio. The radio  
passport shows the Uconnect Radio  
model, serial number and secret code.

188) Warning: looking at the system when  
driving can divert attention from the road,  
with the risk of accidents or other serious  
consequences. Do not change system  
settings or enter data non-verbally (using  
the manual controls) while driving. Stop the  
vehicle in a safe and legal manner before  
carrying out these operations. Adopting  
these precautions is important since setting  
or changing some functions might require  
the driver to be distracted away from  
the road and remove his or her hands from  
the steering wheel.  
PANDA UCONNECT APP  
To use the Panda Uconnect app you  
must download it from the Apple App  
Store or from Google Play and pair  
the smartphone to the radio via Blu-  
etooth®, as described in the "Blu-  
etooth® Device” chapter. For the list of  
compatible phones, see Fiat elum site.  
WARNING  
184) If the volume is too loud this could be  
dangerous for the driver and for  
passengers when driving in traffic. Always  
adjust the volume so that you can still  
hear background noises.  
185) The use of some of the system's  
features whilst driving can divert attention  
away from the road, with the risk of  
causing accidents or other serious  
consequences; therefore they must only be  
used when the driving conditions allow  
and, where necessary, only when the  
vehicle is stationary.  
The app interface may change  
depending on how it is used:  
connected or not connected to the car  
radio.  
189) Voice commands: the system  
functions can be carried out using only  
voice commands. The use of voice  
commands when driving allows you to  
manage the system without taking your  
hands off the steering wheel.  
When it is connected via Blu-  
etooth®, you can interact with the  
radio through the screen of your smart-  
phone. You can listen to you favourite  
music by selecting the source, the track  
or the radio station desired. You can  
also view the phonebook, your car  
handbook and, if necessary, call for  
assistance.  
When it is not connected, you can  
have all the information about the state  
of your car with my:Car and indications  
about your driving style with eco:Drive.  
You can also find your car easily if  
you do not remember where you  
parked it.  
186) Read and follow these instructions:  
before using your system, read and follow  
all the safety information and instructions in  
this manual. Failure to observe the  
precautions found in this manual may lead  
to an accident or other serious  
190) Looking at the display for a long time:  
while driving, do not use any function  
that requires looking at the display for a  
long time. Pull over in a safe and legal  
manner before attempting to access a  
function of the system that requires  
prolonged attention. Even occasional quick  
glances at the display can be dangerous  
if the driver's attention is diverted at a  
critical moment.  
consequences.  
187) Keep the manual in the car: if it is kept  
in the car, the manual will become  
something quick and easy to consult for  
those not familiar with the system. Ensure  
that everyone has access to the manual  
and reads the instructions and the safety  
information carefully before using the  
system for the first time.  
191) Setting the volume: do not turn the  
volume up too high. When driving, keep the  
volume at a level that allows you to hear  
the traffic outside and emergency sirens.  
Driving while unable to hear these sounds  
may cause an accident.  
199  
192) Using the voice recognition: the voice  
recognition software is based on a  
statistical process that is subject to error. It  
is your responsibility to monitor voice  
recognition functions included in the  
system and address any errors.  
193) Danger of distraction: the functions  
may require manual settings (not using  
voice commands). Attempting to perform  
such setup or insert data while driving  
can seriously distract your attention and  
could cause an accident or other serious  
consequences. Stop the vehicle in a safe  
and legal manner before carrying out these  
operations.
