If a programme has previously been selected that belongs to the particular station programming chain, the last stored programme entry will be automatically selected. The multifunction button shows which buttons can be pressed to display and select other stations. In cases where the station name is being misused for the purpose of broadcasting adverts or news, the abbreviation L-1... L-Z (L = Local) is used. This prevents the lower display line from constantly changing. When a station is selected, it is identified by a star (e.g. L*1). The first time the unit is operated, or after the electrical supply has been interrupted, it may take the radio some time to evaluate the station signals. The display will appear incrementally as the evaluation progresses. In FM DAS mode, the receivable stations are displayed via the multifunction buttons depending on the settings. Station search FM - DAS Set the desired station by pressing the button directly below the abbreviated station designation. If the selected broadcaster transmits several programmes/regional programmes, a submenu is automatically displayed so that the desired programme can be selected. Turn the right-hand rotary control to the left or right. The radio displays the receivable and identified stations in descending/ascending order. 53 Radio mode FM Scan search Press the right-hand rotary control will be displayed. whilst in FM mode and Programme filtering for FM DAS You have the option of filtering various stations from the FM DAS station list. Whilst in FM menu mode, press the multifunction button. An automatic station search will be initiated. The first run is performed on an insensitive plane, all further runs on a sensitive plane. Receivable stations will remain audible for 8 seconds. If you wish to select one, press the right-hand rotary control again. Note: With FM DAS, the Scan search is conducted in alphabetical order. The individual programmes can be selected using the righthand rotary control . By pressing the right-hand rotary control , you can choose between Play (programme unfiltered) and Skip (programme filtered out).

Next, turn the right-hand rotary control . Tuning is performed in increments of 100 kHz. If manual tuning is currently active MAN will be shown in the display. If the right-hand rotary control is not turned immediately, after a short while MAN will disappear from the display and manual tuning will be cancelled. When one of these stations is selected (e.g. 4*), all receivable regional alternatives for this station will be displayed. You can then select the desired regional alternative (e.g. ). Regionalisation The RDS diversity function is independent of region. As a result, the RDS diversity function can lead to the radio switching between various regional programmes which may vary in terms of broadcasting content. In such a case, the special regional programming must be selected directly. If several regional programmes are transmitted by one station, this can only be seen when the station is selected. Stations with various regional alternatives are indicated by means of a star (e.g. 4*). If the signal quality of a regional alternative drifts despite the RDS Diversity function, it may mean that regional alternatives are only transmitted on a few frequencies. Therefore, there are fewer frequencies with strong signals available for the unit to switch to. 56 Radio mode Switching regionalisation on / off Switching on FM menu mode Switching radio text on / off Press the left-hand rotary control the currently selected FM station. to display radio text for Use the multifunction button to turn regionalisation on (on) or off (off). Turning frequency display on or off Switching on FM menu mode The car radio filters data transmitted by the radio station and displays it in the form of radio text. Radio text cannot be displayed unless the selected station transmits it in the first place. Poor reception or interference may distort the radio text or prevent it from being displayed completely. In order to quit the radio text level, press the button or the left-hand rotary control . Note: Since information transmitted via radio text is constantly changing, we recommend displaying the radio text only when the vehicle is stationary to avoid unnecessary distraction for the driver. This is a necessary precaution for accident prevention. Use the Frequency multifunction button to select either (Frequency display on) or PTY (Frequency display off). 57 Radio mode Traffic programme (TP) If an RDS Diversity station broadcasts TP announcements, the CD-, MP3,- CDC/AUX-, MW-, LW-, and SW modes can be interrupted or the mute function suspended in order to switch to the TP announcements. Moreover, you can listen to one FM station while receiving TP announcements transmitted by another FM station. There are two ways to select a TP transmitter: - automatic tracking - direct programming Automatic tracking always uses the FM station currently being received as the TP transmitter. If the selected FM station has poor signal quality or cannot function as a TP transmitter, the unit applies specified criteria to search for a new TP transmitter. With direct programming, a TP station other than the one being listened to can be programmed. This means, for example, that a particular FM station can be listened to whilst TP announcements are received from another one. If the programmed TP transmitter reception is poor, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the programmed TP transmitter can be restored. If an RDS station features traffic programmes, this is indicated on the display by TP. An inverse appears on the display to indicate that the traffic programme is active. Activating / quitting the TP menu Activating: Press the must not be transmitted). button (traffic announcements Press the multifunction button.
