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.
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.
106Navigation
After the entry of the destination
address or point of interest (nearest
petrol station, hotel, etc.) the route is
calculated from the current location to the destination selected.
The route guidance is provided by
voice output and an arrow, as well as
with the aid of a multi-colour map
display.
TMC traffic information system
and dynamic route guidance
The TMC traffic information system receives all current traffic informationfrom TMC radio stations. If dynamic
route guidance is active, this
information is included in the
calculation of the overall route. During
this process, the route is planned so
that traffic problems related to pre-
selected criteria are avoided.
If there is a traffic problem during
active route guidance, depending on
the pre-settings, a message appears as to whether the route should be
changed.TMC traffic information is displayed in
the route guidance display as
symbols or as detailed text on the
TMC messages menu.
To be able to use TMC traffic
information, the system has to receive TMC stations in the relevant region.
Dynamic route guidance only works if
traffic information is received via the
TMC traffic information system.
The dynamic route guidance function
can be deactivated in the Navigation
options menu, see chapter
"Guidance" 3 129.
Map data All required map data is stored on an
SD card provided with the
Infotainment system.

Installation instructions and operating guidelines
The vehicle specific installation
instructions and the operating
guidelines of the mobile phone and
handsfree manufacturer must be observed when installing and
operating a mobile telephone. Failure to do so could invalidate the vehicle
type approval (EU directive 95/54/
EC).Recommendations for fault-free
operation:
■ Professionally installed exterior antenna to obtain the maximum
range possible,
■ Maximum transmission power 10 watts,
■ Installation of the phone in a suitable spot, consider relevant
Note in the Owner's manual,
chapter Airbag system .
Seek advice on predetermined
installation points for the external
antenna or equipment holder and
ways of using devices with a
transmission power exceeding
10 watts.
Use of a handsfree attachment
without external antenna with mobile
telephone standards GSM
900/1800/1900 and UMTS is only
permitted if the maximum
transmission power of the mobile
telephone is 2 watts for GSM 900 or
1 watt for the other types.
