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 car radio equipment.

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.

As a result, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car radio equipment while you are driving.

Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)

This radio is equipped to receive the following wavebands: FM, MW and LW. In combination with the two FM tuners, the Radio Data System guarantees ex-

cellent reception quality and more convenience when listening to the radio. RDS functions such as station recognition, including a regional identifier, and the

display of the station name have become standard features. Using PTY (programme type identification) you can select which type of programme, e.g. news, sports, light classical music, etc., you would like to listen to. However, the PTY signal is not yet broadcast by all radio stations.

During FM operation, the station names in the reception table indicate which stations you can tune into. Stations which do not transmit an RDS signal are listed at the bottom of the table along with their frequencies.

The display header indicates the current status. You can use the softkeys to select the corresponding stations directly. It is possible to store a preference table (memory table) for each of the wave-

bands. These tables will display the stations you have stored.

Switching to the radio mode

• Press TU (tuner). The TU main menu will appear in the display (radio menu). The display will indicate the status selected last.

Selecting the waveband

You must have the TU main menu in the display.

• Press TU once or repeatedly as necessary.

• Select the desired waveband with the corresponding softkey, e.g. select

FM.

The display will now show the reception table, i.e. all of the stations within reception range will be displayed for this waveband.

RDS information (RDS - Radio Data System)

RDS offers you more convenience when listening to FM radio. Most radio stations now transmit RDS information along with their regular programming.

RDS offers you a number of interesting advantages:

Station name

If it is possible to identify a station, the station name including a regional identifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional programme in Lower Saxony, Germany).

Alternative frequency

If a station has been identified as an RDS station, the radio will automatically select the frequency with the best reception for the station selected.

This means that you can drive all through northern Germany, for example, after selecting the station (e.g. NDR 2) you wish to listen to only once. You will hear this station in the best possible reception quality the entire time without having to adjust your set.

If you leave the reception area for the station selected - you will notice a considerable decrease in reception quality - we recommend that you tune into a different station.

A station which is not currently within your reception range will appear crossed out in the preference table.

This station will be deleted from the reception table as soon as it is no longer within the radio’s reception range.

Traffic message reception with RDS-EON

The abbreviation “EON” stands for Enhanced Other Networks, meaning the exchange of information within a radio network.

Many FM radio stations offer traffic messages for their service area at regular intervals.

In addition to their programmes, all traffic programme stations transmit a special carrier signal which is decoded by your car radio. If this signal is identified, TP (traffic programme) or TA (traffic announcement priority) will appear in the display.

There are also stations which do not actually transmit traffic programmes themselves, but by using RDS-EON it is possible for them to receive the traffic messages broadcast by another traffic programme station in the same radio network.

If you want traffic announcements to have priority while you are listening to one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), TA must appear in 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.

Switching traffic announcement priority on/off

If you are tuned into a traffic programme station, TA will light up in the upper right corner of the display if the traffic priority is activated or TP if it has been switched off.

You can switch the priority on or off in the main radio menu. Depending on the situation, call up the main radio menu

Traffic Memo (TIM)

This set is equipped with a digital speech memory which can automatically record up to four traffic messages lasting a maximum of four minutes.

As soon as TP appears in the display, the system will record all incoming traffic messages broadcast by the station when the radio is switched on.

If the priority for traffic announcements is activated (TA shown in the display panel), the set will also record the messages broadcast by the traffic station of the same programme network (see also “Traffic message reception with RDSEON”).

If “TIM ACTIVE” appears briefly in the display when the radio is switched off, the TIM standby mode is active. In this case the radio will record the traffic information broadcast for 90 minutes before and after the programmed TIM times even if it is switched off.

The radio will also record the traffic messages broadcast by the last station it was tuned into for three hours after the set has been switched off.

Depending on the length of the new message, the oldest messages will be deleted automatically.

If a message is longer than four minutes, “OVERFLOW” will appear in the display header for 2 seconds after you have activated TIM to indicate that the system was unable to record the message in full.

Care and maintenance tips

We recommend that you use only C-60/C-90 type cassette tapes in your car tape player. Store your tapes in a cool place away from dirt, dust and temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Allow very cold tapes to warm up before playing them in order to prevent uneven tape transport. After approximately 100 hours of use, dust particles collected on the playback head or roller may lead to problems in transporting the tape 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 rubbing alcohol. Never insert hard objects into the tape player.

Note that the front panel will automatically close again after approximately 15 seconds.

DNC – Dynamic Noise Covering

With the help of DNC it is possible to enjoy the same volume while driving that you find pleasant in the stationary vehicle.

The volume is increased at different rates for different frequency bands, depending on the noise in the moving vehicle.

In this way, the volume and the sound balance remain pleasant to the ear, regardless of whether the vehicle noise increases or decreases. Noise of very short duration, e.g. crossing railway tracks, is ignored.

Adjusting DNC

For DNC to operate correctly, it is necessary to first perform a calibration procedure with the help of a microphone. Using the enclosed self-adhesive Velcro tape, install the microphone permanently in the immediate vicinity of the console, but not close to sources of noise such as heating vents and air-conditioning.

The mouth of the microphone must face into the passenger area. Select a quiet area for the calibration and switch the engine off.

• Press S briefly.

• Then press DNC . The level selected will appear in the display header.

EQ (Equalizer)

Equalizer functions

The quality of the stereo playback inside your vehicle is affected by such factors as the vehicle interior (upholstery, windows), the position of the loudspeakers, etc.

Using the integrated equalizer, it is possible to adjust nine frequency bands per channel: 63 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, 16 kHz.

It is possible to store and recall three automatic and one manual equalizer setting on four memories.

EQ OFF to switch off the equalizer.

Use The following functions are available to provide optimum sound quality:

Automatic equalizer (AUTO-EQ 1 - 3)

(Hi-fi calibration) The car radio is equipped with a self-adjusting, adaptive 9-band equalizer for

four channels. Three different settings can be stored.

Hi-fi calibration

You can set and store automatic calibrations for three different situations. The calibrations are started and called up using the softkey ( You can select the following settings:

AUTO-EQ1 for the driver alone AUTO-EQ2 for the driver and front-seat passenger AUTO-EQ3 for passengers in the front and rear.

Press

EQ OFF to switch off the equalizer (EQ OFF in the display header).

To make the calibration hold the microphone in the corresponding position (do not cover microphone opening).

For setting 1 (driver alone), position the microphone directly at the height of the driver’s head. For setting 2, place the microphone between the driver and the passenger on the front seat. For setting 3, place the microphone centrally between the front and rear seats.

Start Hi-fi calibration

During the calibration process it is important that the surroundings are very quiet. Any outside noises will distort the readings.

The loudspeakers should not be blocked by any objects. The car radio must be switched on.

• Place the microphone in the desired position.

The readings will be distorted if the microphone is placed in an incorrect position. Depending on the vehicle and the position of the loudspeakers, the calibration

can be linear or can boost the bass sounds. Try the settings to find out which one you prefer.
