Introduction
Introduction Gener a
l
operating information
Safety notes WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an acc ident
and cause injuries. Operating the
radio system can distract you from the road.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to
eas
ily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency services sirens
and horns).
● 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
you 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. 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 move around the interior
during a sudden driving or braking manoeu-
vre or an accident, and cause damage or in-
jury.
● Do not place or fit external equipment to
the doors, wind
screen, steering wheel, dash
panel, the backs of the seats, on top of or
near the area marked “AIRBAG” or between
these areas and the occupants. External devi-
ces can cause serious injury in an accident,
especially when the airbags inflate. WARNING
Opening a CD player's housing may lead to
injuries fr
om invisible laser radiation.
● Only have CD players repaired by a special-
ised work
shop. CAUTION
The unit can be damaged by incorrect inser-
tion of a d at
a medium or insertion of an in-
compatible data medium.
● When inserting and removing a CD, always
hold it
at a right angle to the front of the
drive without tilting so as not to scratch it.
● If a CD or DVD is inserted while another is
alre
ady in the unit or being ejected, the DVD
drive may be irreparably damaged. Always
wait until the data medium is completely
ejected. CAUTION
Any foreign objects attached to a data medi-
um and non-rou nd d
ata media can damage
the CD player.
● Only clean, 12-cm standard CDs should be
used!
–Do not affi
x stickers or other items to the
data medium. Stickers may peel off and
damage the drive.
– Do not use printable data media. Printed
labels and coverings may peel off and
damage the CD drive.
– Do not insert 8-cm mini CD singles or
non-round CDs (irregularly-shaped CDs).
– Do not insert DVD-Plus discs, Dual Discs
or Flip Discs, as these are thicker than
normal CDs. 4

Audio mode
The remaining operations for handling exter-
n al
d
ata media (change of track, track selec-
tion and activating playback modes) are per-
formed similarly to those of the other audio
sources (e.g “Playing SD card”) ››› page 15.
Instructions and restrictions
The number of USB ports as well as their
compatibility with Apple™ devices and other
media players depends on the unit.
The USB port supplies the usual USB volt-
age of 5 volts for a USB connection.
Due to the large number of different data me-
dia and various iPod™, iPad™ and iPhone™
generations available, it is not possible to
guarantee error-free operation of all func-
tions described here.
Take into account all other instructions and
limitations regarding requirements for media
sources ››› page 12.
Disconnecting
The connected data media must be prepared
for disconnection before it can be removed.
● Press the Infotainment button MENU , then

External audio source connected to
the AUX-IN mu
ltimedia socket Depending on the level of vehicle equipment,
there i
s
an AUX-IN multimedia socket on the
radio front ››› Fig. 1 5 in the stowage com-
par tment
on the front passenger side, in the
centre console, or in the armrest between the
two front seats.
The AUX-IN multimedia socket can only be
used with a 3.5 mm jack plug.
An external audio source connected to it can
only be played over the vehicle speakers, but
cannot be controlled via the radio.
The AUX-IN multimedia socket should be acti-
vated in the system setting ›››
page 18 in
order for it to appear in the Media selection
menu ›››
page 13.
Connecting an external audio source to the
AUX-IN multimedia socket
● Reduce the base volume on the radio.
● Connect the external audio source to the
AUX -IN mu
ltimedia socket.
● Start playback on the external audio
source. ●
In M

● Press the function button .
The outp ut
volume of a connected external
audio source should be adjusted to that of
the other audio sources.
Adjusting the output volume
If you need to increase the output volume for
the external audio source, first lower the
base volume on the radio.
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
● If p l
ayback of the external audio source fin-
ishes or if the connector of the AUX-IN multi-
media socket is unplugged, the radio will re-
main in the AUX menu.16
Settings menuMenu options: Submenus with repercussion
Frequency switching (AF)
: Automatic sta-
tion tracking ››› page 7.
If the function is active, while in motion it always
changes the frequency of the set radio station,
which at that time can be set better. This happens
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 :
DAB traffic announcements
: 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.
DAB-DAB station tracking
: Automatic sta-
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).
DAB-FM Automatic switching
: Switching to
FM frequency band is allowed for automatic station
tracking ››› page 19.
Media :
Menu options: Submenus with repercussion
Mix/Repeat including subfolders
: It estab-
lishes that random play and repeat play can include
any existing subfolders. The setting only affects the
playback of MP3/WMA files.
Screen :
Switch off screen (in 10 seconds)
: The
screen turns off automatically if during the set time no
operation is performed. As soon as one of the buttons
on the unit, function buttons or knobs is operated, the
display becomes active and displays the last active
dialogue.
Brightness : Selecting screen brightness from Maxi-
mum brightness to Maximum darkness .
Show clock in standby mode
: When the unit
is off, the display shows the current time.
Colour : Here you can select marking colours for the
screen.
Language : Here you can set the desired language for
the user interface. Alternatively you can also let it auto-
matically select the language of the instrument cluster.

move an SD card inserted in or connected to a USB de-
vice.
Factory settings : You can reset the Radio, Media ,
Sound and System factory settings individually or all
together.
System information : Display of unit technical data.
Menu options: Submenus with repercussion
Intellectual property rights : Details of the
software used.
a) Valid only for the FM frequency band.
b) This depends on the country and unit in question.
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. »
