you switch to Radio mode, the available
frequency bands (FM, AM 1)

You can use any of the following:
● Searching for the next station.
● Turning a stored station back on.
● Switching on the TP function ›››

● Store the selected station ›››
page 10.
The station that you are currently listening to
is shown in the middle of the screen. For sta- tions compatible with RDS, if the reception
quality is

sufficient, the station name may be
displayed instead of its frequency, e.g. RA-
DIO 21.
RDS and automatic station tracking RDS is a radio data service that allows the
dis
p

lay of the station name, automatic sta-
tion tracking and the TP function (traffic infor-
mation station ››› page 8).
With the automatic station tracking the unit
always switches to the frequency that offers
the best reception of the current radio station
as the vehicle travels from one area to the
next. If the reception is poor, the unit may be
muted for a short time as it searches for alter-
native frequencies (AF).
RDS is not available everywhere or on every
FM radio station.
Depending on the country and the unit, the
RDS and switching to alternative frequencies
(AF) may be deactivated in the system set-
tings ›››

In Radio mode, the radio station being lis-
tened to must be compatible with the TP
function or be a DAB or EON station compati-
ble with the TP function. If neither of these
two conditions are met, it is not possible to
track stations with traffic information.
If the traffic information station being lis-
tened to is no longer received, it is possible
to manually start a station search using the  and
 arrow keys.
If se
ar

ching for a station using the arrow
keys, NO TP is displayed if the station set is
not currently compatible with TP. In Media mode or while the unit is muted, it
is

always automatically tuned to a station
with traffic information in the background, as
long as one is received. This operation may
take some time depending on the situation.
Incoming traffic announcement (INFO)
In active Audio mode, an incoming traffic an-
nouncement will play automatically.

and audio DMB)*
Introduction Some units are equipped with an additional
DAB r
a

dio receiver.
The DAB radio receiver supports the DAB,
DAB+ and DMB-Audio broadcasting stand-
ards.
In Europe, digital radio is transmitted via
Band III frequencies (174 MHz to 240 MHz)
and the L Band (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 DAB stations are combined into one
channel with the additional services availa-
ble in a “block”.
DAB is currently not available in all areas . In
areas without DAB, is displayed  in DAB ra-
dio mode. The system and functions settings
allow in this case a change of FM station
››› page 18. In the system and functions
settings there is the configuration of other
settings for the tracking of stations and for
playing DAB notifications. Note
The radio stations are responsible for the
cont ent

of the information sent.10

Additional DAB stations
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional stations, (for example,
for broadcasting sports events).
If there is an additional station available, this
will also be indicated in the main display 
next to the name of the station. In the list of
stations, additional stations are identified by
“2nd” on the right margin.
To move to an additional station, select the

dia (e.g. CD, external MP3 player). These au-
dio files can be played by the respective data
media or by the radio input sockets.

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
