Display of station information in DAB
mode. The DAB radio receiver supports the DAB,
DAB+ and DMB-Audio broadcasting stand-
ards. In Europe, digital radio is transmitted via
Band III frequencies (174 MHz to 240 MHz)
and the L Band (1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred
to as “
channels
” and each has a channel
n
ame (e.g. 12 A).
Several DAB stations are combined into one
channel with the additional services availa-
ble in a “block”.
St
arting DAB radio mode
● From the
RADIO main menu press the BAND function button and select
DAB .
The DAB radio station that was last selected
will be played if it can still be received at the
current location.
The selected DAB station is displayed in the
upper bar of the screen; the group of selec-
ted stations is displayed below ››› Fig. 11 .
Ad dition
al DAB stations (Secondary Service
Components)
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional stations , (for example,
for broadcasting sports events).
Press the name of the main station in the
DAB menu to select an additional station. Or,
select the additional station from the station
list. The DAB main menu shows the name of the
additional selected station on the right

Automatic station tracking: change from DAB
to FM
DAB is currently
not available in all areas . In
areas without DAB, is displayed in DAB ra-
dio mode.
Automatic station tracking can be activated
in DAB setup to change to the FM frequency
band ››› page 22.
If r
eception of the currently selected DAB sta-
tion is lost (e.g. no DAB reception available),
the Infotainment system attempts to find the
station on the FM frequency band and tune to
it. Automatic station tracking between fre-
quency bands only works if the DAB station
and the FM station transmit the same station
identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corre-
sponding station on the FM frequency band.
Once the corresponding FM station has been
found, (FM) is displayed after the station name. When reception for the corresponding
DAB station returns, the unit will switch back
to DAB mode after a short time. The (FM)
dis-
play is hidden.

Telephone management system (PHONE)
Note
● Restrictions on the use of devices using
Bluetooth ®
technology may apply in some
countries. For further information, contact the
local authorities.
● If you wish to connect a device to the tele-
phone management system via Bluetooth ®
technology, consult the safety warnings in its
instruction manual. Only use compatible
Bluetooth ®
devices. Areas where special regulations apply
Switch off the mobile telephone and the mo-
bile telephone provision in places with a risk
of explosion. In the majority of cases, these
places are signposted, but not always clearly
››› in General information on page 56. They
include, for example:
● the vicinity of chemical pipelines and tanks
● The lower decks of boats and ferries.
● In the proximity of vehicles that run on liq-
uid gas (such as propane or butane).
● places where the air is laden with chemi-
cals or particles such as flour, dust or metal
powder.
● all other places where the vehicle engine
must be switched off WARNING
Switch off the mobile phone in areas with a
risk of explosion! The mobile telephone can
automatically connect to the mobile tele-
phone network again if it loses the Blue-
tooth ®
connection to the telephone manage-
ment system. CAUTION
In areas where special regulations apply or
the use of mobile telephones is prohibited,
both the telephone and the telephone man-
agement system must be switched off. The
radiation produced by the mobile telephone
when switched on may interfere with sensi-
tive technical and medical equipment, possi-
bly resulting in a malfunction or damage to
the equipment. Bluetooth
® Bluetooth
®
Bluetooth ®
technology allows a mobile tele-
phone to be connected to your vehicle's tele-
phone management system. In order to use
the telephone management system with a
mobile telephone with Bluetooth ®
technolo-
gy, it is first necessary to pair them.
Some Bluetooth ®
mobile telephones detect
and automatically connect when turning on
the ignition if a connection has been previ-
ously established. For this to take place the telephone must be switched on and its Blue-
tooth
®
function activated, and there must be
no active Bluetooth ®
connection with other
devices.
Bluetooth ®
connections are free.

Bluetooth profiles ®
When a mobile telephone is connected to the
telephone management system, a data ex-
change takes place via one of the Bluetooth ®
profiles.
● Hands-free Bluetooth profile (HFP) : If a mo-
b i
le telephone is connected to the telephone
manager through the HFP, calls can be made
wirelessly through the hands-free device.
This function also requires other Bluetooth
profiles such as the phonebook download
and instant messaging.
● Advanced audio profile (A2DP): Bluetooth
profile for transmitting audio signals with
stereo quality. This function can also connect
other additional Bluetooth profiles for view-
ing tracks and for controlling playback on the
mobile device.
