Radio mode

ENGLISH

This device is equipped with an RDS radio

 

receiver. Many of the receivable FM stations

 

broadcast a signal that not only carries the

 

programme but also additional information

 

such as the station name and programme

 

type (PTY).

 

The station name appears on the display

 

as soon as the tuner receives it. The pro-

 

gramme type can be displayed upon re-

 

quest. For further information, please

 

read the section entitled "Programme type

 

(PTY)".

 

Adjusting the tuner

 

To ensure proper functioning of the tuner,

 

the device must be set for the region in

 

which you are located. You can select be-

 

tween Europe and America (USA). The tun-

 

er is factory-set to the region in which it was

 

sold. If you experience problems with your

 

radio reception, please check this setting.

 

Press the MENU button 9.

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "TUNER".

Press the softkey 5 with the display label for the desired region, "AREA EUR" or "AREA USA".

Press the OK joystick 8or the MENU button 9to exit the menu.

The settings are saved.

15

Radio mode

Setting the number of antennas

This device is equipped with two RDS radio receivers (TwinCeiver). You can connect one or two antennas to the device. If two antennas are used (strongly recommended, the second antenna is part of the scope of delivery) a directional receiption of the station being received is possible in DDA radio mode. In most cases, the directional receiption significantly improves the reception quality.

Note:

To ensure proper functioning of the tuner, the main antenna must be connected to the bottom antenna socket.

To set the number of antennas,

press the MENU button 9.

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "TUNER".

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "ONE ANTE" if one antenna is connected to the device.

Or

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "TWO ANTE" if two antennas are connected to the device.

Press the OK joystick 8or the MENU button 9to exit the menu.

The settings are saved.

Switching to radio mode

If the device is in the operating modes CD/ MP3 or CD changer/Compact Drive,

press the TUNER button =.

The basic radio menu for selecting the station is displayed. The functions of the radio mode are controlled via the radio function menu. You reach the radio function menu by pressing the TUNER button =again in radio mode.

Selecting static/dynamic radio mode (FM only)

You can select from two modes for FM radio mode:

Static radio mode ("PRESETS" and "DDA")

In the static radio mode, four memory banks (FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMT) are available in FM mode. You can store six stations in each of these memory banks. The receiving unit automatically adjusts the best receivable frequency of the station for each of the stored stations.

PRE mode (static)

If you connected only one antenna to the device and set it up in the setup menu (see "Setting the number of antennas"), the device plays back the configured station with one tuner and searches for the best frequency of the adjusted station with the second tuner (with activated RDS function).

16

Radio mode

Digital Directional Antenna mode – DDA (static)

If you connected two antennas to the device and set them up in the setup menu (see "Setting the number of antennas"), the adjusted station is received with both antennas in DDA radio mode. In the process, the TwinCeiver continuously analyses the signals of both antennas and calculates a "clean signal" from them to reduce reception interferences. This process developed by Blaupunkt corresponds to a directional aerial with respect to its mode of operation. Particularly in areas with reception interferences due to reflections from buildings, mountains, etc., the reception quality is significantly improved. In exceptional cases, e.g. reception of two different stations on the same frequency, it may lead to an undesirable reception behaviour. In such a case, you should select the dynamic radio mode (see "Selecting the radio mode" below).

Dynamic radio mode

In dynamic radio mode, five levels (DL1 - DL5) are available. While the adjusted station is being played back, the second reception searches for receivable stations in the background and displays all receivable stations with short name next to the softkeys on the memory bank. The station are constantly updated so that you can always access receivable stations.

Selecting the radio mode

To select between the modes static and dynamic,

press the TUNER button = in radio mode.

The display shows the radio function menu.

Press the NEXT button 4.

The display shows the second page of the radio function menu.

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "TUNER 2".

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "DYN LIST" for the dynamic radio mode.

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "DDA" or "PRESETS" for one of the static radio modes.

Press the OK joystick 8or the MENU button 9to exit the menu.

The settings are saved.

Convenient RDS functions (AF, REG)

The convenient RDS functions AF (Alternative Frequency) and REG (Regional) extend your radio’s range of functions (in FM mode only).

AF: If the RDS function is activated, the radio automatically tunes into the best receivable frequency for the station that is currently set.

ENGLISH

17

Radio mode

REG: At certain times, some radio stations divide their programme into regional programmes providing different content. You can use the REG function to prevent the car radio from switching to alternative frequencies that are transmitting a different regional programme content.

Note:

REG must be activated/deactivated separately in the radio functions menu.

Switching the RDS function on/off

If you want to use the convenient RDS functions (AF and REG),

press the TUNER button = in radio mode.

The display shows the radio function menu.

Press the softkey 5 with the display label "RDS" repeatedly until the desired setting "RDS ON" or "RDS OFF" appears.

This device can receive programmes broadcast over the FM frequency range as well as the MW, LW and SW (AM) wavebands. Four memory banks are available for the FM waveband and one memory bank each for the wavebands MW, LW and SW.

In dynamic radio mode, up to five levels are available.

All traffic announcements that are broadcast 30 minutes before and 90 minutes after the specified time on the selected traffic announcement program are recorded. This function is particularly useful if you are using your car at fixed times.

If the last message is older than six hours, all messages are deleted.

If a new traffic announcement arrives during the TIM playback, the playback is interrupted and the new message is recorded.

Risk of damage to the motorised antenna in a car wash. An automatic motorised antenna remains ex-

tended if TIM is activated and you switch off the device. In a car wash, the extended motorised antenna may cause damages. For further information, please read the section entitled "Switching TIM off".
