Operation
In Europe, digital radio has two DAB broadcasting standards, DAB+ and
DMB radio. The digital radio broadcasts on frequencies from waveband III
(174 MHz to 240 MHz) and waveband L (1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of both bands are called “channels”, and are abbreviated
accordingly (for example, 12 A).
In one channel, several DAB stations join together with the additional avail-
able services, forming an “Ensemble”.
These additional services are used to send additional information to the ra-
dio (e.g. news, sports, weather, warnings, etc.). DAB is currently
not available in all areas. When the DAB radio mode is ac-
tive, in areas where DAB is not available, the symbol of an aerial crossed
out is displayed.
Depending on the settings, in DAB mode incoming DAB messages are
played (for example, news, sport, weather forecasts, warnings, etc.)
⇒ page 25.
As a general rule, while you are driving the DAB tracking function changes
to the channel of the currently playing digital station with the best recep-
tion. This permits additional settings to be made ⇒ page 25.
Note
If the symbol of a crossed-out aerial is displayed “”, this indicates that
the currently playing digital station on the channel selected is no longer
available in this location.
Note
Some digital stations also offer the radio text service. This is activated in
exactly the same way as for a conventional radio station ⇒ page 19.
Note
The DAB radio receiver is compatible with the DAB and DAB+ standards. 

DAB 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. 

26Audio mode
When the DAB reception is poor, the unit tries to find and tune into the cor-
responding 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 on-
ly, for example, when driving through a tunnel. 

Media mode Introduction
“Media sources” are audio sources containing audio files on various differ-
ent data media (e.g. CD, memory card, external MP3 player). These audio
files can be played by the radio and navigation system from its correspond-
ing drives or audio input sockets (internal CD player, memory card slot, ME-
DIA-IN interface, AUX-IN, 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”.
