The Infotainment system provides
you with state-of-the-art in-car
infotainment.
For the AM, FM and DAB wavebands the radio is equipped with twelve
automatically assignable channel presets. Furthermore, various
channels can be allocated manually
(waveband-independent).
The integrated audio player will
entertain you with audio CDs and MP3/WMA CDs.
Furthermore, you can connect
external data storage devices to the
Infotainment system as further audio
sources.
The digital sound processor provides
you with several preset equalizer
modes for sound optimisation.
Optionally, the Infotainment system
can be operated using controls on the steering wheel or via the speech
recognition system.The well-thought-out design of the
control elements, the clear displays
and a large multifunction knob enable
you to control the system easily and
intuitively.

and features available for the
various Infotainment systems.

not apply to your vehicle due to
model variant, country
specifications, special equipment or
accessories.
