DTP OFF: Only FM traffic announcements (TA) interrupt the currentbroadcast.Function button: Effect DTP ON: Both FM and DAB traffic announcements interrupt the cur-rent broadcast.FMLb) DAB-FM Link: If this setting is activated (ON) and the reception of theDAB station selected gets worse, and no other channel is available withthe same station, or when reception in DAB is deficient, this function auto-matically searches for another channel in the FM band.The change is not possible if the reception of the FM station is deficient orthe stations do not transmit information that established the relationshipbetween the DAB and FM stations. In this case it is not a faulty radio opera-tion.If the DAB reception is recovered with greater quality than the FM station itwill switch back from FM to DAB.
a)
It is not available everywhere or for all radio models.
b)
They are only available for radio models with DAB.
Functional mode description of speed-dependent volume adjustment(GALA)
The GALA function automatically adjusts the volume in line with the speedof the vehicle.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed (GALA) is set on ascale between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases only slightly as the speed of thevehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At 0,speed-dependent volume adjustment is switched off.
