Vehicle-Specific Naviceiver for Fiat Ducato III

AW: The Z-E3776 is suitable for motorhomes based on FIAT Ducato III, incl. Series 8 and Series 9 with full support of all steering wheel buttons. The vehicle must be equipped with a factory radio preparation.

For the physical device installation, the N-XFDUC8 mounting bracket is required.

The Z-E3776 is not compatible with vehicles that are factory equipped with a radio or navigation system.

AW: The Z-E3776 contains a DAB+ twin tuner, providing a dynamic list of DAB+ radio stations currently receivable in the area. The station sorting corresponds to the sequence of the DAB Ensembles and their short ID (e.g. 5C, 7A, 7D, 8D, 12C). The radio stations in each Ensemble sort alphabetically. Manual sorting of radio station entries in the Ensemble lists is not possible. The Ensembles and radio station entries are updated regularly by the automatic background scan.

AW: The Z-E3776 provides options to integrate steering wheel control buttons.

1. The Z-E3776 features a direct interface, which supports steering wheel control buttons of compatible vehicles without further measures, e.g. the buttons work “out-of-the-box”. However, the buttons can be re-assigned to suit personal preferences in the SWC learning mode setup page. For this, please study the respective chapter in the device user manual.
   2. The Z-E3776 provides an IR-In input for the connection of separately available, external vehicle-specific stalk interfaces for FIAT Ducato.

AW: Right after the first power-on process and after separation from the vehicle battery, the Z-E3776 will perform an automatic radio station search. Depending on the vehicle location and locally available DAB frequency bands, the station search process can take up to 2.5 minutes. During the search period, radio stations cannot be accessed nor selected by the user.

AW: “FAV” is an abbreviation for “Favorite” and refers to a configurable function key, see main device manual under “Misc Setup” page 60) where a specific function can be assigned via the Setup menu. The “FAV” sensor key on the device front panel supports the following direct function assignments: CAM/NAVI/EQ/Setup/BT-Music/BT/DISP/iPod/USB/HDMI/AndroidAuto(GAA)/AV-IN/FM/DAB/CarPlay/Voice/Mute/AppList/BT-SRC Mode.

AW: “ALT” is an abbreviation for “Alternative” and refers to a configurable function key, (see device main user manual under “Misc Setup” page 61) where a specific button function can be assigned via the Setup menu. The device features an ALT button field in the HMI. The following direct function assignments for the “ALT” button are available: CAM/NAVI/EQ/Setup/BT-Music/BT/DISP/iPod/USB/HDMI/Android Auto(GAA)/AV-IN/FM/DAB/CarPlay/Voice/Mute/AppList/BT-SRC Mode.

AW: The camera range of ZENEC includes so-called “Multiview” models. The range includes vehicle specific as well as universal models. The Multiview function allows direct manual control of the desired image view on the ZENEC device by tapping one of the six camera views on the touchscreen.

AW: The Z-E3776 has in the device settings menu, two selectable control options for the automatic TFT display brightness adjustment. At the device, go to: Setup > Display (TFT Display Settings) > TFT Control > “Car” or “Navi”.
As factory default setting, “Car” is enabled which means that the device dims the screen when low or high beam is activated. For the “Car” based TFT screen brightness control, the “Illu signal” at the ISO-connector is used. Using your main headlights as Daytime Running Lights with TFT Control set to “Car” mode will cause dimmed screen (brightness value for night) with the headlights turned on.
Therefore, users driving with main headlights ON as daytime running lights should set the TFT Control to “Navi” so that the day/night time zone data controls the TFT screen brightness. Note: The “Navi” setting will cause the device to start up in night mode until an actual GPS time signal for device master clock is retrieved via GPS downstream. This may take up to 30 seconds

AW: Please refer to the instructions on page 40/41 of the devices main operating manual.

The general functionality of CarPlay, as well as an overview of the apps supported by CarPlay and further additional information can be found on Apple’s official site: https://www.apple.com/en/ios/carplay/

AW: In order for a Huawei smartphone to work with Google services like Android Auto, the developer unlock option must be turned on. Unlocking is simple: tap the build number in the system settings seven times. After tapping 7 times, you will be prompted to enter the unlock password (if a password has been set). Enter this password. After that, the developer options are unlocked and can be found under the menu item System & Updates. After that, the Huawei smartphone should be able to be set up with Android Auto as described in the main device manual on pages 42/43.

AW: Smartphones with Android 10 or higher, do have Android Auto pre-installed. For older smartphones a manual installation from the Google Play store might be necessary.

To use Android Auto on your ZENEC device, you have to adjust time and date on your ZENEC device correctly. Please pay attention to chapter „Setup Operations → System → Clock & Date Setup“ shown in the main device user manual of the Z-E3776. For more detailed information about Android Auto, please visit

AW: The password function must be set to ON under “Setup” > “System” > “Password Function”. See page 77 in the main device manual. The default code – 12345 – must be entered once. After this step is completed, device will accept any other individual code combination.

AW: Zenec devices include under-voltage protection sensor circuitry to avoid low voltage boot process to safeguard the unit that may not work as intended without stable supply voltage. The root cause of device reboot issues can usually be attributed to the on-board batteries or power supply network cables and connections, causing the voltage to drop below 10.5 volts during engine start-up.
In case of frequent device reboots after engine starts, please consult your vehicle service point or the motor home dealer to review your car´s starter or second battery and the electrical wiring.

AW: During the navigation announcement, the volume of the voice announcement can be adjusted by the volume rotary encoder or via the horizontal volume scale pop-up of the Z-E3776. Simply turn the volume knob of the unit, or touch and move the VOL slider during the navigation announcement to adjust voice guidance to the desired volume. The last VOL adjustment level is retained.

In the cockpit mode of the NaviApp (map view), there are also PLUS and MINUS buttons in the top right corner to adjust the volume of the navigation routing info voice message at any time.

AW: To keep your device up to date in terms of map coverage, it is possible to update the microSD card with the PC tool called “Toolbox” via the Naviextras online portal.

Navigation software updates, add-on’s content and map updates are available here: https://zenec.naviextras.com.

Please note the information in the navigation chapter of the device manual of your device.

On Naviextras you have access to paid and free map updates and further add-on’s or bug fixes. The navigation software package offered with the Z-E3776 includes a 3-year map subscription. This allows you to keep the map content up to date for three years free of charge after (GPS) activation. The map provider TomTom (or other providers – depending on the nav package) usually offers two map updates per year, which are offered for download on Naviextras (without guarantee and without influence, since it is third-party content).

Disclaimer: The map update subscription can only be guaranteed in its full extent in connection with a new device, which is put into operation together with a new navigation map. In the case of used devices with navigation maps purchased later, the date of the first use of the device is decisive. Naviextras sets a hidden timestamp at the first contact of the system with GPS satellites, which records the start of the first map use.

AW: Please note that navigation maps from ZENEC for Western and Eastern Europe coverage use map material from TomTom. TomTom is a renowned provider of digital map data for navigation systems.

In general, it can never be ruled out that digital map data is incorrect at locations such as intersections, new roads, etc. and the navigation system will issue wrong route instructions. Map content errors can only be handled by the content provider and nobody else. Map errors can be reported to TomTom at the following link – however, a user account must be opened for this purpose: https://www.tomtom.com/mapshare/tools/

Notice: Links for other map data providers will be hosted by Naviextras.

AW: The TPEG function in the ZENEC navigation software is based on freely broadcasted TPEG data (country-specific coverage). Out of the box, TPEG function is activated. Before starting a support ticket to report “missing live traffic” data make sure, free TPEG data is actually available in the country of use.

AW: CampingSchaf POI packages are re-compiled once every year and usually become available until Q2 latest.  You can download an up-to-date (multi-language) CampingSchaf POI package as free add-on via the Naviextras portal. At toolbox click on “Shop”, use the searchbox with input “Camping” or “Schaf”. Alternatively at “MAPS & MORE” select POIs and search for “CampingSchaf”. Show the details of Camping and confirm the download by adding it to the shopping cart. CampingSchaf is part of the package content of Z-EMAP76PC-TT3 and Z-EMAP76MH-TT3 packages, including free yearly updates. The Toolbox will show you the actual downloadable package: https://zenec.naviextras.com/shop/portal

AW: The TMC / TPEG function in the ZENEC navigation software is based on freely broadcasted TMC / TPEG data (country-specific coverage). Out of the box, TMC / TPEG function is activated. Before starting a support ticket to report “missing live traffic” data make sure, free TMC / TPEG data is actually available in the country of use.

AW: The NNG / Naviextras date information shown on new map package offerings follows a date convention set by OEM Automotive customers, which refers to the publication date of the raw digital map data. The raw data of single countries is assembled, compiled and subject to extensive testing and post-processing. This process takes several months of time, before a new package is ready for release to consumers.

Important for purchase and use of a map package: The purchase packages offered on Naviextras always include the latest digital map data available from TomTom or other providers.

AW: Up to seven smartphones can be paired at the same time. However, only one of them can be connected at a time. The Auto Connect function is only available for the last connected mobile device.

AW: The phonebook of the paired smartphone can be updated manually using the Re-Sync option. Please note the information in the main device user manual on page 29.

AW: No, unfortunately this is not possible. You can delete a saved favorite. Then resynchronize the phonebook and select the updated contact as a favorite again.

AW: The microSD card reader on the front of the Z-E3776 is for the operation of the GPS navigation software package only. Use of the microSD card reader for audio or video file playback is therefore not possible.

AW: It can happen that the file system of the data medium is damaged or that the formatting of a data medium is lost due to aborted write cycles. The causes for this can be of various kinds, such as use or storage of the data medium, as well as problems with the initial formatting.

In these cases, you must format the data carrier with FAT32 on your PC or notebook. Info: If media content on the USB drive is still not recognized by the device after formatting, it may be due to an incompatibility of the data media controller chip. In such a case you should use another USB medium by another manufacturer brand.

AW: Format the USB data medium you want to use with FAT32 – before use. Zenec generally recommends to use only high quality USB sticks. Please note the specifications in the device main features for the allowable memory sizes. Also note that the USB ports on the device are designed for a current consumption of max. 1500 mA. Since external hard drives often have higher operating currents, we do not recommend using them. Further information about USB and MP3 playback problems can be found here:
