Information regarding general road safety
This car radio device is intended and approved for installation and operation in passenger cars, commercial vehicles and
buses (vehicle classes M, N and O) whose electric system has a rated voltage of 12V.
Installation and maintenance should only be carried out by specialists. Faulty installation or maintenance can result in
the malfunctioning of the motor vehicle’s electronic systems. The vehicle manufacturer’s safety instructions must be observed.
The vehicle’s electronics (e.g. speedometer signal) may only be worked on by an authorised service garage. We assume no
liability for any impairment of the vehicle’s electronics.
This device is only intended for installation in the area provided for this purpose by the vehicle manufacturer.
The method of attachment used must ensure that the device will remain properly attached, should the vehicle be involved
in a crash.
The power supply must be properly fused.
Using mobile phones without an external antenna in the proximity of the radio unit may cause interference.
Familiarise yourself with the device and how it works before embarking on your journey. Whilst on the move, only operate the device in appropriate traffic conditions. The volume of the device should be set at a level that enables external
noises (e.g. police sirens) to be easily heard.

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 additional regional transmitters are indicated with a star (i.e.

Note
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.

Accident hazard
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.
! Press the left-hand rotary control.
The car radio filters data transmitted by
the radio station and displays it in the
form of radio text.
Note
Radio text cannot be displayed unless
the selected station transmits radio text.
Poor reception or interference may distort the radio text or completely prevent
it from being displayed.

Traffic programme (TP)
If an RDS diversity station broadcasts
TP announcements, it is possible to interrupt CD, MP3/WMA, CDC/AUX,
MW, LW, SW mode or the mute mode
and switch the broadcast TP announcements through. 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 station:
- Automatic tracking
- Direct programming
Automatic tracking transmits TP bulle-
tins over the FM station currently being
received. If the selected FM station has
poor signal quality or is not a TP station,
the unit applies specified criteria to
search for a new TP station.
Direct programming enables a TP station to be programmed that is not the FM
station being received. 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 station’s reception is poor, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the programmed TP
station can be restored.
If the unit detects a TP station, this is indicated on the display by
