depending on the content currently
being transmitted.
The Infotainment system stores these stations, sorted by programme type,
in the corresponding category list.

Radio data system (RDS)
RDS is a service of FM stations that
considerably facilitates the finding of
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.
■ On 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 system
displays radio text that can contain,
for example, information about the
current programme.
Configuring RDS
To open the menu for the RDS
configuration:
Press the CONFIG button.
Select Radio settings and then RDS

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 be
broadcast 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.
Page 95 of 221

Radio95
■ There is no fading (weakening ofthe sound) that is typical of AM or
FM reception. The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (a
phenomenon that is typical of AM and FM reception) does not occurin 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 Infotainmentsystem remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable FM stations. If TP 3 92 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 .
The following options are available in
the configuration menu:
■ 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, but not the level of the quiet sounds. 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.
■ Frequency band : after selection of
this option the user can define
which DAB wavebands are to be
received by the Infotainment
system.

Usage .......................................... 97General information
The Infotainment system's CD player
can replay audio CDs and MP3/WMA CDs.
Important information about
audio CDs and MP3/WMA CDsCaution
Under no circumstances place
DVDs, single-CDs with a diameter
of 8 cm or shaped CDs in the audio
player.
You must not put any stickers on
CDs. These discs can get jammed
in the CD drive and ruin the drive.
An expensive replacement of the
device will then be necessary.
■ Audio CDs with copy protection, which are not in compliance with
the audio CD standard, may not
play correctly or not at all.
■ Self-recorded CD-Rs and CD-RWs
are more vulnerable to mishandling
than prerecorded CDs. Correct
handling, especially in the case of
self-recorded CD-Rs and CD-RWs, must be ensured; see below.
■ Self-recorded CD-Rs and CD-RWs
may not play correctly or not at all.
■ On mixed mode CDs (combinations
of audio and data, e.g. MP3), only
the audio tracks will be detected
and played.
■ Avoid leaving fingerprints when you
change CDs.
■ Put CDs back in their sleeves immediately after removing them
from the audio player in order to
protect them from damage and dirt.
■ Dirt and liquids on CDs can smear the lens of the audio player inside
the device and cause faults.
■ Protect CDs from heat and direct sunlight.
■ The following restrictions apply for the data stored on an MP3/WMA
CD:
Maximum folder structure depth:
11 levels.
Maximum number of MP3/WMA
files that can be saved: 1000.
