WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an accident and cause injuries. Operating the
infotainment system while driving can dis-
tract your attention from the traffic.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens). ●
If you set the volume excessively high you
may suffer damage to your ears. This can also
happen if you are exposed to an excessively
high volume even for a short time. WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when
you switch audio source or connect a new au-
dio source.
● Reduce the base volume before switching
audio source or connecting a new audio
source ››› page 7
. WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data me-
dium while driving can distract your attention
from the traffic and cause an accident. WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may
obstruct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they
do not obstruct the driver. WARNING
External devices that are placed loose in the
vehicle or not properly secured could be flung
though the interior during a sudden driving
or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an
accident. ●
Never, for any reason, fit the external units
on the doors, on the windscreen, on or near
the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering
wheel, on the dash panel, on the seat backr-
ests or between these areas and the passen-
gers. These units may cause serious injury in
the event of an accident, especially if the air-
bag is activated. WARNING
The centre armrest may obstruct the driver's
arm movements, which could cause an acci-
dent and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the
vehicle is in motion. WARNING
Opening the housing of a CD player can cause
injury due to invisible laser radiation.
● Only have CD players repaired by a special-
ised workshop. WARNING
The recommendations and traffic signs
shown by the navigation system may differ
from the true traffic conditions.
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations have
priority over the recommendations and in-
structions given by the navigation system.
● Adjust your speed and driving style to visi-
bility, road, traffic and weather conditions. » 3

General operating information
Introduction Note
● Lightly pressing the buttons or briefly
pressing the touchscreen is sufficient to op-
erate the unit.
● It is possible that not all the functions and
function buttons are available as the software
of the unit responds to the specific character-
istics of each market. If a function button is missing on the display this is not due to an
error in the unit.
● Due to country-specific legislation, certain
functions cannot be selected on the screen
when the vehicle is travelling above a certain
speed.
● Using a mobile phone inside the vehicle
can cause noise in the speakers.
● There may be restrictions on the use of
Bluetooth devices in some countries. Infor-
mation is available from the local authorities.
● In some vehicles equipped with a parking
distance warning system, the volume of the
audio source is automatically lowered when
the gear is engaged. Rotary knobs and buttons

RDS radio data services
Fig. 7
Standard representation: RADIO main
menu. Fig. 8
Standard representation: list of sta-
tions. The RDS (Radio Data System) offers addition-
al information in FM such as the visualisation
of the station name, automatic station track-
ing (Alternative Frequencies), text broadcast
by radio (Radio Text), traffic reports (TP) and
station types (PTY).
Not all units have RDS, nor do all FM stations
offer this service.
Without RDS
, it is not possible to obtain ra-
dio data services.
Name of the station and automatic station
tracking
When the RDS is available, you can view the
station names in the RADIO main menu and
in the li
s

t of FM stations .
The FM stations send different contents un-
der one name (for example, Radio 2) in vari- ous regional frequencies, provisionally or
permanently.
When driving, the automatic station tracking
automatically changes to the frequency that
provides the best reception of the currently-
selected station. As a result, you may lose
the regional programme you are listening to.
The automatic change of frequencies and au-
tomatic station tracking can be linked
through the FM setup
››› p
age 17.
Radio text
Some RDS-enabled stations also broadcast
additional text information known as radio
text.
The radio text is displayed in the top half of
the screen, above the stored station buttons.
The radio text display can be linked through
the FM setup ››› page 17. Note
● The radio stations are responsible for the
content broadcast.
● Due to matters of infrastructure, RDS func-
tions may be limited in certain countries, and
you may not be able to use traffic reports, au-
tomatic station tracking (AF) or programme
types (PTY).
● In some cases the name of the station is
too long. This text may be blocked/unblocked » 11

Digital radio mode (DAB, DAB+ and
DMB audio)*
Fig. 9
Standard representation: Main DAB RA-
DIO menu. The DAB radio receiver is compatible with the
standards DAB, DAB+ and DMB audio.
In Europe, digital radio broadcasts on fre-
quencies from band frequency III (174 MHz
to 240 MHz) and band frequency L
(1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of both bands are called
“
channels
”, and are abbreviated accordingly
(f
or example, 12 A). Several DAB stations are combined in one
channel with the additional services availa-
ble in a “block”.
D

AB is not currently available in all areas . In
DAB Radio mode, it will show when you are in
an area with no DAB service .
Enabling DAB radio mode
In the
RADIO main menu, press the function
key ››› Fig. 9 BAND and select
DAB .
The list of stations will be updated and the
last DAB station selected will be played, pro-
vided it can be received in the current loca-
tion.
The station selected at that time is shown on
the top line of the screen. The block selected
is shown underneath it ››› Fig. 9 .
Ad dition

al DAB stations
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional programmes , (for ex-
ample, for broadcasting sports events). Addi-
tional stations are selected in the same way
as the conventional DAB stations. The DAB
main menu shows the name of the additional
station set under the name of the main DAB
station. The additional stations cannot be
stored. Automatic station tracking: change from DAB
to FM
In DAB setup/Advanced setup you can change
to the FM fr

equency band for automatic sta-
tion tracking.
When the DAB station you are listening to
can no longer be received (for example, due
to DAB no longer being available), the unit
will try to locate and tune in this station in
the FM band frequency.
For station tracking across various frequen-
cies, the DAB station and the FM station must
broadcast the same station code, or the sta-
tion in FM that corresponds to the equivalent
in DAB, must be indicated through the DAB.
When a corresponding FM station is found, it
will show FM after the station name. When its
DAB equivalent can be received again, it will
change to DAB mode after a certain time. The
FM indication will disappear.
When the signal of a DAB station is very weak
and its FM equivalent cannot be found, the
radio will be muted.

the TP function. If, after activating the TP
function, you manually select or use the stor-
ed station buttons to select a station that does not
have the TP function, it will not
check if there are traffic reports (display: TP
