Introduction
Introduction Gener a
l
operating information
Safety notes Travelling on today's roads requires the driv-
er's f
u

ll attention at all times.
Only operate the radio and its various func-
tions when the traffic situation really permits
this. WARNING
● Bef or

e starting the trip, you should famili-
arise yourself with the different radio func-
tions.
● High audio volume may represent a danger
to y
ou and to others.
● Adjust the volume in a way that you can
distin
guish surrounding noise, for example,
horns and sirens, etc.
● Radio settings should be made when the
car is
stopped or by a passenger. WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an acc ident

and cause injuries. Operating the
infotainment system while driving can dis-
tract your attention from the traffic.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly. ●
Select

volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
● If you set the volume excessively high you
may
suffer damage to your ears. This can also
happen if you are exposed to an excessively
high volume even for a short time. WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when
y ou sw it

ch audio source or connect a new au-
dio source.
● Reduce the base volume before switching
audio source or c
onnecting a new audio
source ››› page 7. WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data me-
dium whil e driv

ing can distract your attention
from the traffic and cause an accident. WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may
ob s

truct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they
do not ob
struct the driver. WARNING
External devices that are loose or not proper-
ly sec ur

ed could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or braking manoeu-
vre, or in the ev
ent

of an accident.
● Never, for any reason, fit the external units
on the doors, on the wind
screen, on or near
the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering
wheel, on the dash panel, on the seat backr-
ests or between these areas and the passen-
gers. These units may cause serious injury in
the event of an accident, especially if the air-
bag is activated. WARNING
The centre armrest may obstruct the driver's
arm mo vement

s, which could cause an acci-
dent and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the
vehicl
e is in motion. Note
● Not in ser

ting the data medium correctly, or
inserting unsuitable data media, may damage
the unit.
● When inserting the memory card, make
sure it
is in the correct position ››› page 20
● If you push too hard, you could damage the
lock on the memor
y card slot.
● Only use suitable memory cards.
● The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged
if the v
olume is too high or the sound is dis-
torted. 6

ous regional frequencies, provisionally or

When driving, the automatic station tracking
automatically changes to the frequency that
provides the best reception of the currently-
selected station. However, this can interrupt
the regional station currently tuned.

ards DAB, DAB+ and DMB audio.
In Europe, digital radio broadcasts on fre-
quencies from band frequency III (174 MHz
to 240 MHz) and band frequency L
(1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred
to as “channels” and each has a channel
name (e.g. 12 A ).
Several available DAB stations are combined
into one channel in an “ensemble”.
DAB is not currently available in all areas . In
DAB Radio mode, it will show when you are in
an area with no DAB service .

semble of stations is displayed below

Additional DAB stations
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional programmes , (for ex-
ample, for broadcasting sports events). Additional stations are selected in the same
way

as the conventional DAB stations. How-
ever, these are differentiated in the station
list by the icon 2nd.
The name of the additional available station
is displayed in the main DAB menu next to
the symbol .
The additional stations cannot be stored.

When the DAB station you are listening to
can no longer be received (for example, due
to DAB no longer being available), the unit
will try to locate and tune in this station in
the FM band frequency.
For station tracking across various frequen-
cies, the DAB station and the FM station must
broadcast the same station code, or the sta-
tion in FM that corresponds to the equivalent
in DAB, must be indicated through the DAB. »
