Important notes
Precautions
Before starting to use your new car radio,
please read the following information carefully.
Traffic safety
Traffic safety always has the highest priority.
As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your
responsibility to pay attention to the traffic
situation at all times. Never use your car
radio in a way that could distract you.
Please keep in mind that you travel a distance of 14 m per second at a speed of only
50 km/h.
Should the traffic situation become particularly demanding, we advise you not to use
the radio.
Always make sure that you are still able to
hear any warning signals coming from outside of the vehicle, such as police or fire
engine sirens, so that you can react accordingly.
Therefore, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car radio while
you are driving.
Installation
If you would like to install your new car stereo yourself or add other audio components
to existing ones, then please read carefully
the enclosed instructions on installation and
connection.
In order to ensure that the set operates properly it is necessary that the positive power
supply line is connected to the ignition and
the permanent +12 V lead.
Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs!
Telephone mute
If there is a mobile telephone installed in your
vehicle, the radio, tape player or CD player
can be muted automatically when the phone
is being used.
“PHONE” will then appear in the display.
When TA is active, traffic messages will always have priority. The announcement will
be aborted by pressing the TA button.

(Radio Data System)
Using the SRC button you can switch between the following audio sources:
radio,
tape,

Tape/changer operation is only available if

.
The Radio Data System offers you more
convenience when listening to FM radio stations.
More and more radio stations have begun
to broadcast RDS information alongside
their programmes.
As soon as a programme has been identified, the station name including a regional
identifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional programme in Lower Saxony, Germany).
When RDS is activated, the preset buttons
become programme buttons. You now know
exactly which programme you have tuned
into, making it easy to find the desired station quickly.
But RDS offers you further advantages:
AF - Alternative frequency
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function
makes sure that the strongest frequency of
the currently selected programme is always
tuned in automatically.
This function is activated when “AF” appears
in the display.
In order to switch this function on or off,
• press the AF button briefly.
While searching for the strongest reception
signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
If “SEARCH” appears in the display when
switching on the radio or recalling one of the
stored frequencies, the unit is automatically
searching for an alternative frequency.
“SEARCH” will disappear from the display
when the alternative frequency has been
found or after the frequency band has been
run through completely.
If the reception quality of the selected programme becomes too bad:
• Tune into another station.
REG - regional programme
Certain radio programmes are split up at
times into regional programmes offering local information. The 1st programme broadcast by NDR, for example, offers programmes with different contents in the northern states of Germany Schleswig-Holstein,
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times
of the day.
If you are listening to one regional programme and move to an area where another linked regional programme becomes
stronger, the unit will switch to that programme.
If you wish to continue listening to the first
programme,
• press the AF button for approximately
1 sec.
“REG ON” appears in the display.
38
If you leave the service area of the regional
programme tuned into, or if you would like
to take advantage of the full RDS service,
switch to “REG OFF”.
• Press the AF button for approximately
1 sec. until “REG OFF” appears.
If the REG function is active, “REG ON” will
be briefly displayed each time the radio is
switched on.
Selecting a waveband
(only Como RCM 148, Texas RCM 148,
Madison DJ)
You can select between the following wavebands:
FM 87.5 - 108 MHz
MW 531 - 1602 kHz
LW 153 - 279 kHz
• Press the BND button until the desired
waveband shows on the display panel.
Note:
In the DSC menu you can deactivate the
station selection on either MW or LW or for
both wavebands at the same time.
This has the advantage that only the required bands will allow to be activated, so
that you must press the BND button less
often. For more information, please refer to
chapter “DSC programming - AM ON/OFF”.

Receiving traffic programme stations with RDS-EON
The abbreviation “EON” stands for Enhanced Other Networks, meaning the exchange of information within a radio network.
Many FM broadcasters offer traffic messages for their service area at regular intervals.
All traffic programme stations transmit a
special carrier signal alongside their programmes, which is decoded by your car radio. If this signal is identified, “TP” will appear in the display (Traffic Programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic programmes themselves, but by using RDSEON they offer the possibility to receive the
traffic messages broadcast by another traffic programme station in the same radio
network.
If you wish to have the priority for traffic announcements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA” must
appear on the display panel.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR3)
afterwards.
Traffic announcement priority
on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement programmes is activated, “TA” will light up in
the display.
To switch the priority on or off:
• Press the TA button.
When pressing TA while a message is being broadcast, this message will be interrupted. The unit will then switch back to the
previous condition. The priority for all other
traffic messages remains active.
Please note that several buttons have no
function while a traffic announcement is
broadcast.
Beep tone
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
programme station currently tuned into, you
will hear a beep tone approximately every
30 seconds.
This tone will also be released when pressing a preset button which has no traffic programme allocated to it.
Switching off the beep tone
a) Tune into another station offering traf-
fic information:
• Press the rocker switch or
• press a preset button which has a
traffic programme station allocated
to it.
Alternatively:
b) Switch off the priority for traffic an-
nouncements:
• Press TA.
“TA” will disappear from the display.
Automatic seek tuning start
(tape and CD changer operation)
When leaving the reception area of the tuned
in traffic programme station while listening
to a tape or CD, the system will automatically start searching for a new TA programme.
If no such station is found within approximately 30 seconds, you will hear a warning
beep every 30 seconds. To switch off the
beep tone proceed as described above.

CD changer operation
Care notes
To avoid possible problems, we recommend
you to use C-60/C-90 type cassette tapes
only. Store your tapes in a cool place away
from dirt, dust and temperatures exceeding
50 °Celsius. Allow very cold tapes to warm
up before playing them in order to avoid
uneven tape transport. After approximately
100 hours of use, dust particles collected
on the playback head or roller may lead to
tape run problems and sound distortions.
Use a head cleaning tape to remove normal dirt build-up. For tougher cases, use a
cotton swab (Q-Tip) dipped in alcohol. Do
not attempt to clean by inserting a hard object into the player!
