Maybe of interest to someone here....cut and pasted from imotorhome.co.au Issue 19

The 2012 Fiat Ducato radio

can be reset to stay on for

3 hours while stationary. I

own a new 2012 Winnebago

Birdsville which had the

same problem, so I Googled

and found a UK Fiat forum

website with the answer. I

can't understand why local

motorhome manufacturers

using the Fiat Ducato haven't

got onto the remedy and reset

the radio in the factory. Here

is the remedy copied from the

website.

Turn radio on using central

power button

Within 15 seconds,

simultaneously press FM

AS and preset button

2. Each time this pair

of buttons are pressed

the display will alternate

between NORMAL POWER

MODE and CAMPER

POWER MODE

Ensure CAMPER POWER

MODE is displayed, then

press MENU

Using the UP and DOWN

button now changes the

display to show various

adjustable items. Cycle

through the options until

RADIO OFF and a number

of minutes is shown on

the display. This will take

approx. two presses of

the UP button or seven

presses of the DOWN

button.

With RADIO OFF shown

on the display press the

LEFT or RIGHT button.

Each press of either button

will alternate the number

of minutes shown between

180 and 0

With 180 showing on

the display the setting is

complete and three hours

of radio operation should

be possible. Press the

POWER button to exit the

menu and return the display

to its usual view.

Please note that in NORMAL

POWER MODE the same

subsequent steps detailed

above can be followed,

to choose between 20

mins and 0 mins of radio

operation.
