First and foremost, pay attention to the safety instructions » page 4 , Important
notes .
The device allows analogue radio reception of FM and AM frequency ranges as
well as DAB digital radio reception.
Radio reception DAB allows multiple stations to be transmitted in a single fre-
quency in the form of a so-called ensemble. It also allows for the transmission of
additional data and information (e.g. messages, sport, weather, warnings, etc.).
Note
■ Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can interfere with the radio signal
even causing it to fail completely.■
In countries where the RDS function is not supported sufficiently, we recom-
mend turning off the AF and RDS settings. Otherwise, these settings can affect
the functionality of the radio.
■
For vehicles with window antennas, if the windows have foil stuck to them or
metal-coated stickers this may cause you to experience some interference.

DAB programme tracking
If a DAB station is a member of several sender groups, when the signal is poor,
the same station is searched in a different sender group.
Auto-change DAB -FM
If the DAB signal is poor, the unit will try to find a corresponding FM station for the DAB station you are currently listening to.
For auto-change to work, the DAB and FM stations must send a sender ID.
› While the station is being received on the FM band, (
) is displayed after the
station name. The () marker disappears when the relevant DAB station can be received again .
› If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception, the
device will be switched to mute.
› If you do not want automatic station change (e.g. when driving through tunnels,
when reception may be lost temporarily), you can deactivate this function.
L-band
For the DAB radio reception in different countries, different frequency ranges are used. In some countries the DAB radio reception only in the so-called L-band.
› If you have any problems with the DAB wireless reception it is necessary to en-
sure that the DAB Automatic tuning in L-band is on.
› If no L-band DAB radio reception is possible in the country then it is better to
leave this menu item turned off. The channel scan is therefore faster.

The Telephone menu is available when the following conditions are met: The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function on the device is switched on.
After the device is switched on, the system attempts to connect to the most re- cently connected telephone 1)
.
If a telephone is connected to the device and the device is turned off, the connec- tion to the telephone is not lost. The connection is only lost after switching off
the ignition (for vehicles with the system KESSY after switching off the ignition
and opening the driver's door).
WARNING■ The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served.■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incorrectly,
this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle.
■
Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a telephone in the deployment area of an airbag, on a seat, on
the dash panel or in another area, from which it can be thrown during a sud- den braking manoeuvre, an accident or a collision - risk of injury. There are
storage compartments with lids and if necessary there is the multimedia stor-
age compartments to hold this » Vehicle owner's manual , chapter Practical
equipment.
■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways a tele-
phone conversation can be interrupted and no telephone connection can be es-
tablished - not even in an emergency!■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is limited to
the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles be-
tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your telephone
is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when establishing a connection with the device or transferring data.

With some phones, it is necessary to set the connection to the device as "authorised" in order for the
automatic connection to be successful. If this is not set, the system will prompt you for a confirma-
tion each time you attempt to connect to the telephone.
