Basic setting
8Irrespective of which radio station is heard,
an additional receiver part in the unit
ensures that a traffic information station can
always be received as long as the traffic
information function is switched on. The readiness of the traffic information function is displayed by “
TP” at the top right
in the display. If no traffic information st
ation can be received becaus
e, for example, radio recep-
tion is interrupted in general, “
No TP
” will be displayed instead of “
TP”. Remember
that car parks, tunnels, high
buildings or mountains can interrupt the radio signal
up to the total loss of reception. Incoming traffic announcement When a traffic announcemen
t is being received, a pop-up window will open.
If you wish to interrupt the transmission
of the traffic announcement, press on the
function key in the pop-up window
Traffic announcement
. The traffic infor-
mation function remains available and a
following traffic anno
uncement is made
again while the audio mode is in op
eration. Pressing the function key
will switch off the traffic information function permanently.
Traffic information memoryAutomatic recording of traffic reports If the traffic information function is switched on and a traffic information station is received, the incoming
traffic reports will be recorded
, as long as the ignition is
switched on. This way you are
informed at any time of the current traffic situation,
even if you have your radio switched
off for a lengthy period while driving.
If the vehicle is not in use (i
gnition off) while a traffic information station is received
and the traffic information function is sw
itched on, incoming
traffic reports from
this station are recorded for two hours. When switching the ignition off the current traffic information station is displayed for about five seconds, from which the next 65 minutes of traffic reports will be recorded. During this display of five seco
nds, you can select another traffic infor-
mation station using the arrow keys on the unit, which will be recorded.
If, when the vehicle is not in use, the rece
ption of the set traffic information station
is too poor because of external influences
, it will automatically search for another
traffic information station. A maximum of nine traffic a
nnouncements with a total length of up to four minutes
can be recorded. The oldest traffic report
will always be overwritten if the memory
is full. TIM recording times You also have the possibility to set two TIM recording times, to which the unit will also record traffic reports when the vehicl
e is not in use. Then the radio starts
according to the set TIM recording time with
the recording of all the incoming traffic
reports on the set traffic information station. For example, when you drive your vehicle to
work everyday at a certain time, only
enter the approximate start time. The radio starts with the recording at the set start time and ends the recording 65 minutes afterwards. In this way, before you begin your journey, you can retrieve the last traf
fic reports and tune into the current traffic
situation of the distance to be driven.
