more information). They are stored on the station buttons .
This function is particularly useful on journeys.
If FM mode is set
– Press the button AS for more than two seconds - the system searches the six most powerful RDS stations and
stores them. “ Autostore” is displayed on the screen. After
ending the processs the most powerful station is set.
– You can call up the stored station with the station buttons .
Note
If there are less than six RDS stations, the stations without RDS are stored
and classified according to the field power on the remaining station
buttons. If there are less than six radio stations (TP) the remaining station
buttons are not changed.
Storing radio stations
You can store on the station buttons - three ranges -
FM (UKW), TP (Traffic Program = radio station ) and AM (MW) -
each six stations on two memory levels (e.g. memory levels FM1
and FM2)
– Set the desired station with the rocker button .

Radio mode with RDS and RDS regional
How does RDS function?
The function RDS (Radio Data System) is always active on the radio navi-
gation system. The broadcasting companies emit RDS information in
addition to the program, which is received by the RDS receiver in the
coded form.
The following functions are controlled by the transmitted code.
Program Identification (PI-Code) ; The radio detects the already
received station through the PI code.
Program Service Name (PS-Code); The PS-Code transmits the RDS
station name, which is displayed in the radio information display, e.g.
radio 21. As some station companies modify the RDS station name via the

PS-Code (e.g for advertisement purpose ), there is the possibility to
change the RDS station name in the menu “ Audio Settings ” (call up via
menu field “ Settings”).
Alternative frequencies (AF-Code) ; The program of a station , e.g.
radio 21 emits different frequencies based on the limited range of the ultra
short wavebands of several broadcasting stations. The AF-Code commu-
nicates to the unit all possible frequencies for the corresponding station.
RDS ensures that the best receivable frequency of the selected station is
automatically and precisely set not to be heard.
Traffic radio identification (TP-Code = Traffic Program) ; This informa-
tion communicates to the receiver that a traffic radio station is just being
received.
Traffic information identification (TA-Code = Traffic Announcement) ;
The unit detects a traffic information by the TA-Code. If the radio is set
very low or in the CD mode, the unit switches automatically to the traffic
information in the programmed volume. Simultaneously the unit switches
to mono play function.
EON (Enhanced Information Concerning Other Networks) ; EON is a
RDS function, which ensures that all traffic information of a broadcasting
company is transmitted in the TP mode. Large broadcasting companies
(e.g. NDR) emit simultaneously and frequently various stations, e.g.
NDR 1, NDR 2, NDR 3 etc.... Independent of the already set station of a
broadcasting company, traffic information of other stations of this broad-
casting company can also be transmitted.
Catastrophy announcements ; Catastrophy announcements always
take priority over all other functions. The message “ Alarm” is displayed on
the screen.
RDS regional
Certain programs of the broadcasting companies are divided into regional
programs at specific times. Examplewise NDR 1 transmits at certain times
regional programs with different content e.g. for Schleswig-Holstein and
Hamburg. First of all the unit attempts to set only alternative frequencies of the
selected station.
If the quality is however so low, that there is a risk of a “
program loss”,
the unit accepts also frequencies, which are “ related” to the station NDR
1. As these stations emit temporarily different programs and due to such
a change in frequency also the program from one of the related stations
can be heard.
Basically the station change is only intended for stations with exact PI-
Code. In case of poor reception, however an automatic switch over to a
regional “ related” station family can be performed.
In the menu “ Audio Settings ” the function RDS regional can be set via
the menu field “ RDS REG” to “auto ” or “off”. When opting for “ auto” the
change to a regional “ related” station can only be performed if there is a
risk of losing the station.
Anchoring the RDS station name
As some station companies modify the RDS station name via the PS-
Code (e.g. for advertisement purposes) there is the possibility to anchor
the RDS station name in the menu “ Audio Settings”:
•fixed - the RDS station name is anchored as fixed, i.e. the FM and TP
station stored on the station buttons are shown with their RDS station
names (e.g. radio 21).
•variable- allows the display of advertisement texts and weather reports
in the info field.
Note
•After switching on, the unit searches the highest quality receiveable
frequency for the location of the selected station. The unit can remain
mute for several seconds depending on the reception position and the
number of alternative frequencies.
•The evalutation of the RDS information can last several minutes
depending on the power of the receivable signal.

•RDS evaluation is not possible if the signal is too weak. In this case it
is the frequncy which appears in the status bar or in the info field instead
of the RDS station name.
•If there are unfavourable reception conditions (e.g. in the mountains)
the unit checks very often the alternative frequencies. This can cause brief
mutings.
•If this causes mutings and tone distortions in extremely poor reception
locations, the RDS function is temporarily switched off.
Traffic radio reception
Many stations in the FM range regularly transmit the current traffic reports
within their transmitting range.
After selecting a station, check if the set station has traffic reports.
If the set station is a TP station (station with traffic radio reception), the
identification “ TP” appears in addition to the station name in the info field
of the radio basic menu. The station remains set. The functions “ traffic
information standby ” and “EON” are active.
If the set station has no traffic radio station or cannot be received, the unit
searches automatically for another traffic radio station in the reception
area (start station finding). The message “ TP SEEK” (searching traffic
radio station) appears in the radio information display.
Listening to traffic information
A traffic information is detected by the unit using the traffic information
identification. Even if the radio is set very low or in the CD mode you can
listen to a traffic information. The play function is performed in Mono. The
message “ Info” appears in the radio information display. Simultaneously
the traffic information is recorded in the traffic information memory (TIM)
⇒ page 20. Interrupting a traffic information
If a traffic information was interrupted, press the button . A new
traffic information can be emitted.
Cancel traffic information standby
The traffic information standby is cancelled in the menu “
Select source”
when switching over to FM or AM level.
Traffic information memory - Traffic Memo (TIM)
The radio navigation system has a digital voice memory with which upto
nine traffic reports with a total duration of maximum four minutes can be
automatically recorded.
If the radio is switched on each traffic report of the set station is
recorded, if the show “ TP” is present in the info field.
If the unit is switched off traffic reports are recorded for as long as they
were selected in the menu “ Audio Settings” under “TIM-Standby”
⇒ page 14. This function can also be switched off.
Replaying the traffic reports
If you press the button , the replay of the traffic reports starts with
the last recorded traffic information and continues to the oldest traffic infor-
mation. The show “ TIM Track 4 Time 14:10 TP ” appears in the info field:
TIM - Play function of a recorded traffic information
Tra ck 4 - There are four traffic information. The play function begins with
the latest information.
Time 14:10 - Recording time

Information on how to use a CD changer
CD to jump
Uneven road surfaces and strong vibrations may cause the CD to jump.
In such cases wait with the CD mode until there is a better road surface to
drive on.
Formation of condensation
When it is cold and after rain showers, moisture can deposit in the CD
changer housing (condensation). This can effect the CD jump or impair
the play function. In such cases wait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CDs
If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD in the direction of a circle but
rather with a soft fluffly cloth from inside to outside. In case of severe
layers of dirt we recommend to clean the CD with a commercially available
CD cleaner. Also in this case do not clean the CD in the direction of a circle
but rather from inside to outside and then let it dry off.
Caution
•Never use liquids such as gasoline, paint thinner or disk cleaner, other-
wise the surface of the CD could get damaged.
•Never expose CDs to direct sun rays!
•Please never write or affix the CD!
Note
Dirt or damage of a CD can lead to difficulties when “ reading” the infor-
mation. The difficulty in reading the error depends on the dirt or on the
severity of the mechanical damage. Severe scratches cause reading
errors which can make the CD jump or “ get stuck”. All CDs must be
treated carefully and always be stored in a protective case.
