tive until reception is interrupted.

matically searches for another channel in the FM band.
The change is not possible if the reception of the FM station is deficient or
the stations do not transmit information that established the relationship
between the DAB and FM stations. In this case it is not a faulty radio opera-
tion.

Functional mode description of speed-dependent volume adjustment
(GALA)
The GALA function automatically adjusts the volume in line with the speed
of the vehicle.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed (GALA) is set on a
scale between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases only slightly as the speed of the
vehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At 0,
speed-dependent volume adjustment is switched off.
