Safety notes
WARNINGAccidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating theinfotainment system while driving can distract your attention from thetraffic.
●
Always drive carefully and responsibly.
●
Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-side the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
●
Setting the volume too high may damage your hearing. This also ap-plies if you are exposed to high volumes for short periods only.
WARNINGThe volume level may suddenly change when you switch audio source orconnect a new audio source.●
Reduce the base volume before switching audio source or connectinga new audio source ⇒ page 8.
WARNINGConnecting, inserting or removing a data medium while the vehicle is inmotion can distract you from the road and lead to accidents.WARNINGConnecting leads for external devices may obstruct the driver.●
Arrange the connecting leads so that they do not obstruct the driver.WARNINGExternal devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly se-cured could be flung though the interior and cause injuries during a sud-den driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.
●
You should never position or attach an external device on a door, onthe windscreen or above or near to the areas marked “AIRBAG” on thesteering wheel, the dash panel and the seat backrests, or between theseareas and the vehicle occupants. External devices can cause serious in-jury in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate.

Introduction
The RDS (Radio Data System) offers additional information in FM such as thevisualisation of the station name, automatic station tracking (AlternativeFrequencies), text emitted by radio (Radio Text) and traffic reports (TP).
Not all units have RDS, not all the FM stations offer this service and nor canthe infrastructure of all the countries permit it.
Without RDS, it is not possible to obtain radio data services.
To guarantee the best reception in places where RDS is available for the sta-tions tuned in, select the following system settings ⇒ page 38:

Function only available in Europe
Introduction
Some units are equipped with an additional DAB radio receiver. DAB is adigital broadcasting standard for the terrestrial reception of radio programs.
Operation
DAB is also known as “digital radio” and is broadcast over band III(174 MHz - 240 MHz) and band L (1452 MHz - 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred to as “channels” and eachhas a channel name (e.g. 12 A).
Several DAB stations are combined in a channel with the additional servicesavailable in a station “ensemble”.
Using these additional services additional information can be sent to theradio (e.g. news, sports, weather, warnings, etc.).
DAB is currently not available in all areas. In areas without DAB, is dis-played in DAB radio mode.
Settings can be made to display and play messages, to browse stations andto browse traffic news stations (TP function) ⇒ page 38.
