    i can't for the life of figure out how to scan and reset my presets on the radio. nothing in the manual other than how to connect your i pod. the radio interface is not that intuitive. i can get to my radio presets and scroll through them but how do i scan and reset the presets?

    Thanks

    I tried to figure it out as well.

    Finally, I went to a local Ferrari dealer & they showed me how to use it.
    Still, even after the explanation, it was a bit confusing.

    He did tell me "If you can figure this out, then you can fly a jet plane"

    It is overly complicated--so I just keep 3 stations on the scroll list &
    listen to them only.

    I suggest you go to a local Ferrari dealer--pay them for some time & you will get some help

    Good luck !!

    Baffle, you just beat me to it. I was going to say the exact same thing. Flew Hornets, and just about every model of jet American Airlines had other than the 777, and I can't figure out the 599's FM radio either. I gave up and just use the IPod!

    I hate to admit it but I struggle with the "lap times" counter as well as the "Trip A" and "Trip B" features as well. It's just a hell of a lot more complicated than it needs to be.

    Misery loves company goes the old saying and it couldn't apply more here. I got totally fed up after only my first few days with the car which I was loving especially with the additional Bose system in place when I could get a station on it. So what did I do? Took it out and replaced it with an Alpine. Life is too short!

    I managed to get the blue tooth function operating. By myself. Should I apply for astronaut?

    That system is so strange and the manual no real assistance ...
