Important notes

Precautions

Before starting to use your new car radio, please read the following information carefully.

Traffic safety

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 via the ignition and the permanent +12 V lead. Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs!

Telephone mute

If you have a mobile telephone installed in your vehicle, radio, tape or changer playback can be muted automatically when using the phone (telephone mute). “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 TIM button.

Sub Out

Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)

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 SchleswigHolstein, Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times of the day. If you are listening to one 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 two seconds. “REG ON” appears in the display.

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 two seconds until “REG OFF” appears.

“REG ON” or “REG OFF” will be briefly displayed each time the radio is switched on.

Selecting a waveband

With this car radio you can select between the following wavebands: FM 87.5 - 108 MHz MW 531 - 1602 kHz LW 153 - 279 kHz

• Select the desired waveband by pressing the FM

To toggle between MW and LW:

• Press M•L.

You can use the << >> buttons to tune in stations of your reception area. If several programmes of the broadcasting networks can be received, you can scroll through them in forwards direction pressing >>, or backwards using the << button, e.g. NDR 1, 2, 3, 4, N-JOY, FFN, ANTENNE ... For this it is necessary that the stations have been tuned in at least once and that “AF” is active (lights up in the display). For this purpose, you may start Travelstore seek operation:

• Press FM

T for two seconds; the sys-

tem starts to run through the frequency band.

If “AF” does not light up,

• press AF. With this, the requirements for selecting sta-

tions with << >> are fulfilled.

Changing the memory bank (FM)

You can shift between the memory banks I, II and T in order to store stations and recall them later. The currently selected memory bank is indicated in the display.

• Press the FM

T button as many times

until the desired memory bank lights up in the display.

Storing stations

On FM, you can store six stations on the preset buttons 1-6 for each of the memory banks I, II and T. On MW/LW, you can store six stations each.

• Select the appropriate waveband with

T or M•L.

• Tune in a station with the rocker switch (either automatically / or manually << >>).

• Press the desired preset button until the radio resumes play after the muting (takes approximately two seconds, confirmed by beep).

Now the station has been stored. The activated preset button is indicated in the display.

Notice:

Should you tune in a station which has already been stored before on another memory bank, the corresponding preset button and the memory bank will briefly flash in the display.

• Press the SC button.

All received stations offering the selected programme types will be scanned.

To switch off PTY-SCAN:

• Press SC once again.

PTY priority

Situation: PTY is switched on and lights up in the dis-

play. No station offering the selected programme type can currently be received (with seek tuning or scan). The set will switch back to the previous station. As soon as a programme with such PTY can be received within the broadcasting network, the unit will switch over to the corresponding station for the duration of the programme.

Example: German broadcasting network NDR:

- Station tuned in: NDR3.

- “PTY” lights up in the display.

- Programme type “POP” selected.

- Seek tuning is started.

- The display alternately shows “SEARCH” and “POP”.

- No station with PTY-POP can be found.

- The display shows “NO PTY” and

- automatically switches back to NDR3.

- NDR2 airs a PTY-POP programme.

- The system will switch to the linked station NDR2 for the duration of the “POP” programme.

During tape or CDC operation, the set will also automatically switch to the programme offering the selected PTY within the broadcasting network. After the PTY programme the system will remain in the radio mode.

Notice:

As earlier mentioned, these functions are currently only supported by a limited number of RDS stations.

Radiotext

Radiotext is an RDS feature used by the broadcasters to transmit texts. The texts can be displayed in two subsequent lines with a maximum of 64 characters each, which are moved through the display slowly. Depending on the individual broadcaster, these texts can be of a different nature, for example brief news, program information, commercial broadcasts, etc. For safety reasons, the radiotext function can only be used if the ignition is switched off. When activating this function with the ignition being switched on, the message “NO TEXT” will appear in the display.

To read radiotext messages, proceed as follows: Park the vehicle in a suitable place and turn off the ignition. The radio will be switched off automatically.

• In order to reactivate the car radio, press the ON button for about 1 second.

• Select a station and press DIS for about 1 second (BEEP).

It takes some time until the aired messages are fully available in the system. In the meantime, the radio will display the message “WAIT”. Afterwards, the text will be displayed. If the adjusted station does not provide radiotext information, the message “NO TEXT” is displayed. When tuning to another station, “WAIT” will be displayed before the radiotext appears.

To switch off radiotext:

• Press DIS for about 1 second or turn on the ignition and the radio.

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 TIM for approximately two seconds until you hear a beep.

When pressing TIM while a message is being broadcast, this message will be interrupted. The unit will then switch back to the previous condition, though the recording of this message in the TIM memory will remain uninterrupted. If you press the TIM button once again, “RECORD” will appear in the display for approximately two seconds. When interrupting an EON message, the radio will not continue to record the announcement since it will switch back to the programme heard before. The priority for other traffic messages remains active. Please note that several buttons have no function while a traffic announcement is broadcast.

Warning beep

If you leave the reception area of the traffic programme station currently tuned into, you will hear a warning beep after approximately 30 seconds. This alarm tone will also be released when pressing a preset button which has no traffic programme allocated to it.

Switching the warning beep off

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 TIM for approximately two seconds until you hear a beep. “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, tape or CD operation will be stopped and a warning beep will sound. To switch the warning beep off, proceed as described above.

Adjusting the volume for traffic announcements and the warning beep

This volume was preset at the factory, though you can alter the value using the DSC function (see “DSC programming, TA VOL”).

Adjusting GEO for traffic messages and the warning beep

You can separately adjust the balance and fader settings for both traffic announcements and the warning beep. For example, it is possible to listen to traffic reports via the front left (right) speaker only. This provides the driver with the important traffic information without bothering the rear passengers too much.

To make a setting:

• During an announcement, adjust the balance and fader settings to suit your personal preferences.

Traffic Memo (TIM)

This set is equipped with a digital speech memory, making it possible to automatically record up to four traffic messages lasting a maximum of four minutes. When the radio is switched on and “TP” displayed, the system will record all incoming messages of the tuned in station. If the priority for traffic announcements is activated (“TA” shown on the display panel), the set will also record the messages broadcast by the traffic station of the same programme network (see also “Receiving traffic programme stations with RDS-EON”). If “TIM ON” is briefly displayed when switching off the radio, the TIM standby mode is active. In this case the deactivated radio will be ready to record the traffic information broadcast for 90 minutes before and after the programmed TIM times. What is more, the radio will record the traffic bulletins broadcast by the tuned in station for three hours after having turned off the set. Depending on the length of the new message, the oldest messages are automatically deleted. If a message is longer than four minutes, “OVERFLOW” will be displayed after four minutes of playback, followed by a beep tone indicating that the system was unable to record the message in full.

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) soaked with alcohol. Do not attempt to clean by inserting a hard object into the player!
