The unit should be switched off.
If the battery voltage level continues to fall,
RADIO OFF is briefly displayed and the radio

s
on
ly possible if the TP station is available.
Some stations that do not have their own
traffic news support the TP function by broad-
casting traffic reports from other stations
(EON). Traffic announcements broadcast by
the linked traffic news stations interrupt the
current audio mode.
Switching the TP function on and off
● Press the unit button TP
› ››
Fig. 1 7 .
If the s
t
ation that is currently selected in FM
mode does not support the TP function, the
unit will automatically search for a TP station
(display: TP SEEK ).
● Press the TP unit button to switch the TP
f u
nction off
again.
When in areas without TP coverage the TP
function is activated, and search is begun for
a traffic news station, ending in the failure to
find a station. The search then returns to the
station to which it was originally tuned. The
TP function remains switched on (display: No
TP ). It is necessary to deactivate the TP func-
tion, otherwise no stations will be found in
the subsequent search using the arrow but-
tons.
TP function activated
While traffic news monitoring is switched on
and enabled, TP is displayed ››› Fig. 14. In radio mode, the selected station must sup-
port
the TP function. If a station selected via
the station buttons or manual tuning does
not support the TP function, traffic news
monitoring is not possible (display: NO TP).
If the currently selected traffic news station
can no longer be received, NO TP is also dis-
played and you will need to start a manual
station search using the arrow buttons ›››

D
uring a station search with the arrow but-
tons or the scan function (SCN), the unit will
only tune to stations that support the TP
function.
In Media mode or while the unit is muted, the
unit will automatically tune to a traffic news
station in the background, provided the TP
station available has a good signal. This op-
eration may take some time depending on
the situation.
Incoming traffic announcement (INFO)
An incoming traffic announcement (display: INFO ) will interrupt the active audio mode.
● If required, the radio is switched to the traf-
fic news
station (EON) for the duration of the
traffic announcement.
● The Media mode will be paused and the
volume w
ill be adjusted to the preset level.

ON: The unit always switches to the radio station's
frequency that offers the best reception as the vehi-
cle travels from one area to the next. As a result, re-
gional programmes may be interrupted.
OFF: No frequency change takes place. The fre-
quency tuned is active until reception is interrupted.
VOL ON-VOLUME : Regulating the maximum switch on
volume.
If the volume of the radio system, when switched off,
was greater than the limit set, the volume will be re-
duced to the value set.
If the volume of the radio system, when switched off,
was lower than this limit, the volume will not be modi-
fied.

SFOb)
: Service Following. If this setting is activated (ON)
and the reception of the DAB station selected gets
worse, this function automatically searches for another
channel in DAB with the same station.
DTPb) DAB-TP : This setting only affects the DAb station
currently selected if the TP function has already been ac-
tivated on the equipment (TP ON).
DTP OFF: Only FM traffic announcements (TA) in-
terrupt the current broadcast.
DTP ON: Both FM and DAB traffic announcements
interrupt the current broadcast.
FMLb) DAB-FM Link : If this setting is activated (ON)
and the reception of the DAB station selected gets
worse, and no other channel is available with the same
station, or when reception in DAB is deficient, this func-
tion automatically searches for another channel in the
FM band.
The change is not possible if the reception of the FM sta-
tion is deficient or the stations do not transmit informa-
tion that established the relationship between the DAB
and FM stations. In this case it is not a faulty radio oper-
ation.
If the DAB reception is recovered with greater quality
than the FM station it will switch back from FM to DAB.
a) It is not available everywhere or for all radio models.
b) They are only available for radio models with DAB.
Functional mode description of speed-de-
pendent volume adjustment (GALA)
The GALA function automatically adjusts the
volume in line with the speed of the vehicle. The degree to which the volume increases
with speed (GALA) i
s set on a scale between
1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases on-
ly slightly as the speed of the vehicle increa-
ses. At a high setting the volume increases
further. At 0, speed-dependent volume ad-
justment is switched off. 29
