Internet radio
General notes
A good Internet connection enables an effi-
cient transmission of audio data. Connecting
your mobile phone to the vehicle's exterior
antenna via the phone bracket ensures the
best possible reception.
i Bear in mind that a relatively large volume
of data can be transmitted when using
Internet radio. An average 12 8kbit per sec-
ond data transfer rate can transfer 56 MB
of data in one hour.
The data transfer rate of a station is dis-
played while receiving data. Calling up the Internet radio
