ternal audio source), lower the volume again before switching audio source. Names of controls
Overview
●
Rotary/push knobs
● Labelled unit buttons (hard keys).
● Function buttons (soft keys).
Rotary/push knobs
The left-hand rotary/push knob ⇒ fig. 1 1
is referred to as the volume con-
trol  or the on/off switch.
The right-hand rotary/push knob ⇒ fig. 1 10
is referred to as the setting
knob.
Unit buttons and function buttons
The labelled buttons on the unit are referred to as unit buttons and are pic-
tured as a button symbol with blue content, e.g. the RADIO
unit button.
There are six unlabelled unit buttons below the screen ⇒ fig. 1 8
. These
unit buttons are referred to as function buttons as their functions change
depending on the current operating state.
The current function of a function button is displayed just above the button
in the bottom line of the screen (e.g. ⇒ fig. 3). 

Starting Radio mode
● Press the RADIO
unit button.
The station you are currently listening to is shown in the middle of the
screen ⇒ fig. 2.
After you switch to Radio mode, the available frequency bands are initially
displayed in the bottom line of the screen. After roughly 5 seconds, they are
replaced by the station buttons ⇒ fig. 2 - - -
. Stations can be stored to the
station buttons ⇒ page 15. 
RDS (Radio Data System)
With stations that are RDS-compatible, the station name will be displayed
instead of the frequency, provided reception is good enough (here: RADIO
3). 

13
Audio mode
Text information, known as radio text, can also be broadcast. It is possible
to adjust the display to show radio text ⇒ page 35. Radio text will then be
shown instead of the station name. Not all stations support radio text. The
individual radio station is responsible for the texts displayed.
RDS also allows automatic station tracking. This means that the unit always
switches to the frequency that offers the best reception of the current radio
station as the vehicle travels from one area to the next. It is possible to sup-
press automatic frequency changing ( ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCY OFF)
⇒  page 35.
On some units it is possible to switch off the RDS function for travel in areas
where RDS is not used ⇒ page 35. 
Changing frequency band
Fig. 3 RADIO main menu: frequency bands displayed with memory levels.
The currently selected frequency band (FM or AM) is indicated above the
station display.
After you switch to Radio mode, the available frequency bands and memory
levels are displayed for roughly 5 seconds in the bottom line of the screen
⇒  fig. 3. Then they are replaced by the station buttons for storing stations
(for information on station buttons see page 15). ●
In Radio mode, briefly press the RADIO

tion is stored.
● Briefly press the station button above which the desired station is dis-
played.
● Alternatively: Depending on the settings, you can browse through the
stored stations with the  SEEK / ...

rocker switch (SETUP: SEEK MODE PRE-
SET ⇒ page 35).
It is only possible to play a stored station if it can be received at your current
location. 
TP function (Traffic Programme)* Introduction
The TP (Traffic Programme) function is not available for all versions.
When the radio version does not have the traffic news reception function,
no action is taken when the TP
button is pressed (
TP is not displayed in the
upper left of the screen). While traffic news monitoring is on (display:
TP), traffic announcements will
interrupt the current Audio mode.
Additional information:
● Safety notes  ⇒ page 6
● Unit overview ⇒ page 8
● Radio mode ⇒ page 12
● Settings menus ⇒ page 34 
Traffic news monitoring with the TP function
Fig. 9 TP function active.
Fig. 10 Traffic news monitoring in Media mode. 

17
Audio mode
Traffic news monitoring with the TP function is only possible if the TP station
is available.
Some stations that do not have their own traffic news support the TP func-
tion by broadcasting traffic announcements from other stations (EON). Traf-
fic announcements broadcast by the linked traffic stations interrupt the cur-
rent Audio mode.
Switching the TP function on and off
● Press the TP
button ⇒ fig. 1 12.
● If the station that is currently selected in FM mode does not support the
TP function, the unit will automatically search for a TP station (display: TP
SEEK).
● The TP function is switched off by pressing the TP
unit button.
TP function activated
While traffic news monitoring is switched on and active, TP is displayed at
the top left of the screen ⇒ fig. 9.
In FM mode, the selected station must support the TP function. If a station
selected via the station buttons or manual tuning does not support the TP
function, traffic news monitoring is not possible (display: NO TP).
If the currently selected traffic news station can no longer be received,
NO TP is also displayed and you will need to start a manual station search
using the rocker switch  SEEK / ...

⇒ page 13.
During a station search with the arrow buttons or the scan function (SCAN),
the unit will only tune to stations that support the TP function.
In AM mode or Media mode or while the unit is muted, the unit will always
automatically tune to a traffic news station in the background, provided the
reception of said station is good. This may take some time depending on
the situation. In AM mode or Media mode the currently selected traffic news
station is displayed next to TP ⇒ fig. 10. Incoming traffic announcement (INFO)
An incoming traffic announcement (display:
TP-INFO) will interrupt the active
Audio mode.
● If required, the radio is switched to the traffic news station (EON) for the
duration of the traffic announcement.
● The Media mode will be paused and the volume will be adjusted to the
preset level.
● During a traffic announcement, the traffic announcement volume setting
can be adjusted with the volume control . The adjusted setting will be ap-
plied to subsequent announcements.
● Interruption by a traffic announcement can be stopped by pressing the
TP
unit button. The TP function remains active and the next traffic an-
nouncement will again interrupt the current Audio mode. 
