9IntroductionDepending on the unit and country, the unit is switched off when the engineis turned off or the key is removed. If the unit comes on again without theignition being switched on, it will switch off automatically after 30 minutes(switch-off delay).
Energy management
If, when the ignition is switched off and the unit switched on, the batteryvoltage falls below the minimum onboard power supply voltage, an audiblewarning sounds and LOW BATTERY appears. You should switch the unit off.
If the battery voltage level continues to fall, LOW BATTERY and RADIO OFF arebriefly shown on the display. The unit will switch off automatically.

Special case: Search using the SEEK / ... rocker switch after completingthe scan function (SCAN)
If all tunable stations have been listened to, and the scan function (SCAN)has stopped, the search for stations using the rocker switch SEEK / ... will, in this case, search all tunable stations, even if the SEEK MODE functionsetting is PRESET ⇒ page 38.
Note
If traffic news monitoring is switched on (display: TP), the scan function onlytunes to stations that support the TP function ⇒ page 15.
Selecting the memory level
Fig. 7
Select the frequency band and memory level.
For each frequency band available (for example, FM and AM) there are dif-ferent memory levels (in Fig. 7: FM1, FM2 and AM1, AM2).
Each memory level shows six function buttons to store and tune in the radiostations. These function buttons are called “station buttons”.
When you change to Radio mode, the available memory levels are shownfirst ⇒ Fig. 7 and then, after 5 seconds, the station buttons of the memorylevel selected ⇒ Fig. 8.
Changing the memory level in Radio mode
●
Press the unit button to activate Radio mode (RADIO, BAND, FM or AM⇒ Fig. 1

OR: Activate the memory level pressing the corresponding function but-ton.
After 5 seconds the stations stored in the station buttons are displayed⇒ Fig. 8. Free preset buttons are indicated by - - -.
When you change the memory level you can also change the frequencyband ⇒ page 11.
You can assign stations to the station buttons of a memory level either man-ually or automatically ⇒ page 13.

Briefly press the station button that displays the desired station.
Depending on the setting you can go through the stored stations of a fre-quency band with the rocker switch SEEK / ... ⇒ Fig. 1 (SETUP: SEEK MODEPRESET ⇒ page 38).
A stored station can only be played if it can be received at your current loca-tion.
NoteThe stored stations are overwritten if, in the same memory level, anotherstation is stored in a station button that is already in use.

Adjusting the output volume (AUX/MDI VOLUME LEVEL)
If you need to increase the output volume for the external audio source, firstlower the base volume on the radio system ⇒ page 9.
If the sound from the external audio source is too quiet, increase the outputvolume on the external audio source if possible. If this is not sufficient, setthe input volume (AUX VOL LEVEL) in the system settings to level 2 or level 3.
If the sound from the connected external audio source is too loud or distor-ted, lower the output volume on the external audio source if possible. If thisis not sufficient, set AUX VOL LEVEL to level 2 or level 1.
Speed-dependent volume adjustment
The GALA function automatically adjusts the volume in line with the speedof the vehicle.
You can set the degree to which the volume increases with speed on a scalebetween 1 and 7.
