the desired station and its fault-free
reception.
Advantages of RDS
■ On the display, the programme name of the set station appears
instead of its frequency.
■ During a station search, the Infotainment system tunes in to
RDS stations only.
■ The Infotainment system always tunes into the best receivable
broadcasting frequency of the set
station by means of AF (Alternative
Frequency).
■ Depending on the station that is received, the Infotainment systemdisplays radio text that can contain
e.g. information about the current
programme.
Configuring RDS Press the CONFIG button to open the
Settings menu.
Select Radio settings and then RDS
options .

Radio79

Notice

If regionalisation is switched off,
alternative frequencies of the stations

Digital audio broadcasting
Digital audio broadcasting (DAB) is
an innovative and universal
broadcast system.
DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.General information
■ With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can bebroadcasted on a single frequency
(ensemble).
■ Besides high-quality digital audio services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data
services including travel and traffic
information.
■ As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out by a
broadcasting station (even if the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
■ There is no fading (weakening of the sound that is typical of AM orFM reception). The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ If the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver, receptionis interrupted completely. This
incident can be avoided by
activating Auto ensemble linking
and/or Auto linking DAB-FM in the
DAB settings menu.■ Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (aphenomenon that is typical of AM
and FM reception) does not occur in connection with DAB.
■ If the DAB signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings, the
reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably impaired in such cases.
■ When DAB reception is enabled, the FM tuner of the Infotainment
system remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable FM stations. If TP 3 78 is activated,
traffic announcements of the FM station which is currently best
receivable are issued. Deactivate
TP, if DAB reception should not be
interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.
Configuring DAB Press the CONFIG button.
Select Radio settings and then DAB
settings .

Radio81
The following options are available in
the configuration menu:
Auto ensemble linking
With this function activated, the
device switches over to the same
service (programme) on another DAB ensemble (frequency) when the DAB
signal is too weak to be picked up by
the receiver.
Set the function to On or Off.
Auto linking DAB-FM
With this function activated, the
device switches over to a
corresponding FM station of the
active DAB service when the DAB
signal is too weak to be picked up by
the receiver.
Set the function to On or Off.
Dynamic audio adaption
With this function activated, the
dynamic range of the DAB signal is
reduced. That means the level of the
loud sounds is reduced and the level
of the quiet sounds is increased.
Therefore, the volume of the
Infotainment system can be raised to
a point where the quiet sounds are
audible, without the loud sounds
being too loud.
Set the function to On or Off.
Band selection
Select the menu item Band selection
to display the respective menu.
To define which DAB wavebands are
to be received by the Infotainment
system, activate one of the options:
L-Band : 1452 - 1492 MHz, earth and
satellite radio
Band III : 174 - 240 MHz, earth radio

Emergency call9 Warning
Connection setup cannot be
guaranteed in all situations. For
this reason you should not rely
exclusively on a mobile phone
when a vitally important
communication (e. g. a medical
emergency) is concerned.
In some networks it may be
necessary for a valid SIM card to
be properly inserted in the mobile
phone.
9 Warning
Bear in mind that you can make
and receive calls with the mobile
phone, if it is in a service area with
a sufficiently strong signal. Under
certain circumstances emergency
calls cannot be made on all mobile phone networks; it is possible that
they cannot be made when certain network services and/or telephone
functions are active. You can
enquire about this with the local
network operators.
The emergency call number can
differ depending on the region and country. Please enquire
beforehand about the correct
emergency call number for the
relevant region.
Making an emergency call
Dial the emergency call number (e.g.
112 ).
The telephone connection to the
emergency call centre is set up.
Answer when the service personnel
questions you about the emergency.
9 Warning
Do not end the call until you are
requested to do so by the
emergency call centre.
