Note
■ DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is the digital transmission of radio pro-
grammes based on the DAB, DAB+ or DMB standards. This allows multiple sta-
tions to be transmitted in a single frequency channel in the form of a so-called
ensemble. The ensemble's name appears on the screen above the name of the DAB station. It also allows for the transmission of additional data and information(e.g. messages, sport, weather, warnings, etc.)■
“ R adio D ata S ystem” is used to transmit program identification and additional
services, therefore also enabling functions such as the automatic tracking of sta-
tions. If reception is sufficiently satisfactory, RDS-enabled radio stations will dis- play the station name instead of the station frequency.

The activated traffic announcement function (hereinafter referred to solely as
"announcements") identifies a traffic information station in the FM or DAB fre-
quency range.

External sources
Using the system
Advice for dealing with external sources
An external audio source connected to the AUX input can be played in the car through the speakers of the device.
External audio sources cannot be controlled via the device.
A different audio source can be selected on the device at any time. As long as the
external audio source is not switched off, it always remains active in the back-
ground.
See the owner's manual of the specific manufacturer for operating the external
audio source.
Conditions for successful connection
External audio sources are connected via the AUX input using a 3.5 mm standard
jack plug. If the external audio source does not have this jack plug, an adapter
needs to be used (such as an external source to the USB input).
› Only USB devices with the specification 2.0 can be connected.
› The version of the file allocation table FAT (File Allocation Table) of the connec-
ted device must be FAT16 ( <2 GB) or FAT32 (> 2 GB).
› In order to replay from a unit with a hard disk (HDD) which includes a large data
volume, it can lead to a time delay when reading in the overview of the music
data.
› In order to replay from a unit, which includes a complicated folder structure, it
can lead to a time delay when reading in the overview of the music data.
› The folder structure in the connected unit must not exceed a depth of 8 levels.
One folder must not contain more than 1000 data.
› A USB extension cable or USB distributor (HUB) must not be used to connect
the unit.
