About this manual
This manual contains information, recommen-
dations, advice and warnings related to your
radio system. The other publications in the
vehicle documentation contain further infor -
mation of which you should be aware for your
own safety and for that of your passengers.
Ensure that the onboard documentation is
kept in the vehicle at all times. This is espe -
cially important when lending or selling the
vehicle to another person.
This manual contains a description of the
equipment supplied with the vehicle at the
time of press. Some of the units described
herein will not be available until a later date or
is only available in certain markets. The
illustrations are intended as a general
guide and may vary from the equipment tted
in your vehicle in some details.
The screen colour and the colour of the infor -
mation displayed on it can vary according to
vehicle model.
Directions and positions of components (e.g.
right, left, front, rear) are always relative to the
direction of travel of the vehicle unless other -
wise stated.
The equipment marked with an aster -
isk* is tted as standard only in certain
versions, and is only supplied as op -
tional extras for some versions, or are
only offered in certain countries.
® All registered marks are indicated with

WARNING
Texts preceded by this symbol contain infor -
mation on safety. They warn you about possi -
ble dangers of accident or injury.
CAUTION
Texts with this symbol draw your attention to
potential sources of damage to your vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
Texts preceded by this symbol contain rele-
vant information concerning environmental
protection.
Note
Texts preceded by this symbol contain additio -
nal information.

Audio mode
CDs recorded in UDF or Direct CD format can-
not be p
l
ayed. Under Windows Vista ®
ensure
that the correct format is selected.
The unit may be unable to read individual
tracks or the entire data medium due to the
data medium configuration or the devices
and programs used for recording. Informa-
tion about the best ways to create audio files
and data media (compression rate, ID3 tag
etc.) can be found on the Internet.
Due to the larger quantity of data, the unit
takes longer to read a data medium contain-
ing compressed audio files (MP3) than a
“normal” audio CD. Complex folder struc-
tures can also slow down the reading of a da-
ta medium.
Playlists only determine a certain playing or-
der. There are no files stored in a playlist. The
unit will not play a playlist if the files are not
stored on the data medium at the locations
referred to by the playlist (relative file paths). Playing order of files and folders
Fig. 14
Example of an MP3 CD structure. Audio files
 on dat
a medi
a are often sorted
by folders  and playlists  to determine a
certain playing order.
Tracks, folders and playlists on a data medi-
um are each sorted by name in alphanumeric
order.
Subfolders are treated like folders and num-
bered in accordance with the sequence on
the CD.

If the sound from the external audio source is
too low, increase the output volume on the
external audio source if possible. If this is not
enough, set the input volume in the system
settings to level 2 or level 3
››› page 18.
If the sound from the connected external au-
dio source is too loud or distorted, lower the
output volume on the external audio source if
possible. If this is not enough, change the in-
put volume to level 2 or level 1 . Note

even if it interrupts a set regional broadcast.
If the function is deactivated, there is no frequen-
cy change. The frequency tuned is active until re-
ception is interrupted.
DAB Advanced settings :

: If there are
announcements of a traffic radio station available,
they are played directly in the active DAB Radio
mode. The traffic announcements of FM traffic news
stations are ignored. If this feature is deactivated or
if the current DAB set does not offer a TP service,
traffic announcements of an FM traffic radio station
are reproduced directly in the active DAB Radio
mode ››› page 8.
 Other DAB alerts
: DAB announcements
(news, sport, weather, etc.) will interrupt the current
DAB radio mode.


tion tracking in DAB radio mode. If the current DAB
station is broadcast on another channel due to a
change in location, this channel is switched to auto-
matically (factory setting).

Functional description of speed-dependent
volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed-dependent volume regulation au-
tomatically increases the volume as the vehi-
cle speed increases.
You can set the degree to which the volume
increases with speed 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.
DAB-FM LINKING Function
If reception of the currently selected DAB sta-
tion is lost (e.g. no DAB available), the unit
attempts to find the station on the FM fre-
quency band and tune to it.
Automatic station tracking between frequen-
cy bands only works if the DAB station and
the FM station transmit the same station
identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corre-
sponding station on the FM frequency band. »
