28DAB programme tracking and switching from DAB to FM
The DAB and FM station should broadcast the corresponding station identi-
fier in order to run programme tracking in several frequencies.
When the DAB reception is poor, the unit tries to find and tune into the corre-
sponding DAB station in the FM band.
As long as the station is broadcast through the FM band, (FM) is displayed
behind the station name. When the station can be found again in DAB, the
(FM) display disappears.
If the reception of a DAB station is poor and it cannot be found on FM either,
the radio volume is muted.
The DAB programme tracking function can be switched off if you do not wish
to change stations automatically, as the loss of signal is for a short time only,
for example, when driving though a tunnel.Function button: Result
: the incoming DAB messages are played with the
DAB radio mode on. If there is no FM station temporarily available and the
TP function is on, the DAB traffic reports are played in any operating mode

Media modeIntroduction“Media sources ” are audio sources containing audio files on various different
data media (e.g. CD, memory card, exte rnal MP3 player). These audio files
can be played by the radio and navigation system from its corresponding
drives or audio input sockets (internal CD changer, memory card slot, AUX-IN
multimedia socket etc.).
The supported file formats listed are collectively referred to below as “audio
files”. A CD containing audio files of these types is referred to as an “audio
data CD”.
