INTRODUCTION
The car is equipped with an infotelematic system designed according to the specific characteristics of the passenger compartment, with a
customised design that matches the style of dashboard.
The system is installed in an ergonomic position for the driver and passenger, and controls can be quickly located from the graphical display on
the front, making the device easy to use.
To increase protection against theft, the system has a protection system that only allows it to be used on the vehicle in which it was originally
fitted.
The instructions for use are given below and we recommend you read them carefully and always keep them to hand (for example, in the glove
compartment).
Enjoy reading. Happy motoring!
The information in this publication is provided by way of example. Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. can modify the
specifications of the vehicle model described in this publication at any time, for technical or marketing purposes. For
further information, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership.
MODEL: VP4 940
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.
1) 2)
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.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic alerts
and news.
❒ 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 damage it beyond
repair.
Important information
In the event of a fault, the system must
only be checked and repaired by an
Alfa Romeo 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
external temperature is very high, the
system may go into “thermal
protection” mode, suspending
operation until the radio temperature
returns to acceptable levels.
Care and maintenance
Observe the following precautions
to ensure the system is fully
operational:
1)
MODEL: VP4 940
MULTIMEDIA DEVICES:

❒ .M3U
❒ .WPL
NOTE It makes no difference whether
the suffixes are written in capital or
small letters.
NOTES ON TRADEMARKS
iPod, iTunes and iPhone are registered
trademarks of Apple Inc.
All other trademarks are the property of
their respective owners.
Apple is not responsible for the
operation of this device and of its
conformity with the safety rules and
standards.
The DAB/DAB+/DMB Digital Radio
function has been certified according to
the specifications of the "ARD" white
sticker, for Class A - Audio services.
ARD is a trademark of the Associazione
per la Radiofonia Digitale in Italia.
EXTERNAL AUDIO
SOURCES
Other electronic devices (e.g. iPod,
PDA, etc.) can be used on the car.
Some of them may cause
electromagnetic interference however.
Disconnect these devices if the system
performance worsens.
NOTE The system supports only
FAT32-formatted USB devices. The
system does not support devices with a
capacity higher than 64 GB.
ANTI-THEFT
PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the car.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret
code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will
show "Please enter Anti-Theft Code"
followed by the video page showing
a keypad to enter the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four
digits, from 1 to 9: to insert the first
number of the code press the
corresponding key on the display. Enter
the other code digits in the same way.
After entering the fourth figure, the
system begins operating.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code.
Please Try Again" to notify the user of
the need to enter the correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Please
wait 30 minutes": the waiting time is
displayed. Once the text has
disappeared you can start the code
entering procedure again.
MODEL: VP4 940
SAFETY SETTINGS
NAVIGATION ACTIVATION
You are advised to use the safety
settings to make driving as safe as
possible.
Press the NAV button on the front panel
to activate navigation mode.
A few options among the safety
settings are listed below:
❒ display of menu buttons which are
essential while driving;
❒ display of safety warnings;
❒ alert if speed limits are exceeded.
For safer driving, use voice commands
to control navigation (see "Voice
commands" chapter).
Important information
Look at the screen only when it is
necessary and safe. If you need to look
at the screen for a long time, pull over
to a safe place so as not to be
distracted while driving.
Immediately stop using the system in
the event of a fault. Otherwise the
system might be damaged. Contact an
Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system repaired.
When navigation is activated for the first
time, it is necessary to respond to
some configuration questions: respond
by touching the screen.
GPS (Global Positioning
System) RECEPTION
The GPS is a satellite system which
provides worldwide information about
time and position. The GPS is
exclusively controlled by the
government of the United States of
America, the only party responsible for
the availability and accuracy of this
system. The operation of this navigation
system can be influenced by any
change made to the availability and
precision of the GPS or by specific
environmental conditions.
When navigation is started for the first
time, the system may require several
minutes to determine the GPS position
and display the current position on
the map. Afterwards the position will be
found much more quickly (usually a
few seconds are required).
The presence of big buildings (or similar
obstacles) may sometimes interfere
with the GPS signal reception.

The Bose Hi-Fi audio system has been
carefully designed to provide the best
acoustic performance and reproduce
sound like a live concert in all areas
of the passenger compartment.
The system faithfully reproduces
crystalline high tones and full bass
tones.
The complete range of sound is
reproduced throughout the entire
passenger compartment so that the
occupants are enveloped with the
feeling of space experienced when
listening to live music.
The components used have been
patented and make use of the most
sophisticated technology whilst at the
same time being easy to use by even
the most inexperienced people.
IMPORTANT
1) 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.
WARNING
1) Follow the safety rules below:
otherwise serious injuries may
occur to the occupants or the
system may be damaged.
2) 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.).

VOICE COMMANDS
INFORMATION ON VOICE
COMMANDS
The navigation system uses voice
commands for some or all of the
following functions:
❒ driving information;
❒ warnings that you set.
Two types of voices are available during
navigation:
❒ computer voices: they are generated
by the navigation system. They read
responses to voice commands and
traffic;
❒ human voices: which have been
recorded by an actor and provide
instructions about the route.
VOLUME LEVEL
ADJUSTMENT
The volume of the navigation system
can be adjusted on the main unit.
Proceed as follows to activate/
deactivate the navigation instructions:
❒ in the "Driving view": touch the
central box of the status bar to
activate the navigation instruction
audio again (if previously
deactivated);
38
MODEL: VP4 940
❒ in the "Setting menu": touch
"Settings" in the Main menu, then
touch "Turn on/off voice guidance".
USE OF THE VOICE
COMMANDS
Instead of touching the screen, voice
can be used to give voice commands
to the navigation system.
For example, just say "2D view" to
switch to the 2D view.
To display the list of available
commands, touch "Help" in the Main
menu, then touch "What can I say?".
Please follow the suggestions below to
be sure that the voice commands are
always recognised by the system:
❒ speak at a normal volume;
❒ always wait for the "beep" before
speaking;
❒ the system is capable of recognising
the voice commands given,
irrespective of gender, tone of voice
and intonation of the person giving
the instructions;
❒ if possible, try and keep the noise in
the passenger compartment to a
minimum;
❒ before giving voice commands, ask
other passengers not to talk. This is
to prevent misunderstanding since
the system may recognise other
words (in addition to or different from
your voice command) if several
people are speaking;
❒ for optimum operation it is advisable
to close the windows and the sun
roof (for versions/markets, where
provided) to avoid external
interference.
IMPORTANT Voice commands must
always be given in safe driving
conditions, in compliance with the laws
in force in the country where you are
driving.
