Display
The TravelPilot display provides you with all of the information required for nav­igation, such as the visual driving recommendations and the menus and lists for the radio, CD-player and CD-changer audio sources.
If the system has been installed accordingly, it will automatically switch to night display when the vehicle headlights are switched on. This means that all of the dots are displayed in the opposite colour as for the day display. If you drive with the headlights on during the day, e.g. in Scandinavian countries, you can deac­tivate this automatic switch. Refer to the information in the chapter on Set-up ­Display.
It is possible to adjust the viewing angle of the display in your vehicle to obtain optimum legibility. Refer to the information in the chapter on Set-up - Display.
Note: Always handle the screen with care. Never allow the display to come into contact with pointed objects as this will result in scratch­es and damage the screen. To clean the screen, use only a soft, lint­free cloth, moistened with a little rubbing alcohol if necessary. Do not use any solvents such as turpentine or petrol as they are very aggressive and will damage the screen.

Switching RDS (Radio Data System) on/off
The Radio Data System is a service offered by radio stations which provides you with more enjoyment and convenience when listening to FM radio. In addi­tion to their regular programming, the radio stations broadcast such signals as their station name, consisting of one to a maximum of eight characters and the traffic information status of the station. The station name will appear in the dis­play as soon as the station is identified. The TravelPilot also automatically search­es for the best frequency for the station selected.
To take full advantage of the RDS functions, you must activate this option for radio operation in the DSC menu.
Start radio operation. Press DSC 8.

play contents will also appear on the screen.
: RDS radio operation is deactivated. The radio station selected is identi-
fied in the display by its frequency.
Activating/deactivating RDS-REG
Another attractive RDS option is the “Alternate Frequency” function. The system constantly searches in the background for frequencies with better reception for the radio station selected and switches automatically to these frequencies. At certain times of the day, however, some radio station networks broadcast differ­ent programs to serve a particular region. If the alternate frequency option is activated, this might mean that the radio automatically switches to a stronger frequency for the same station which is currently broadcasting a different re­gional program. If you want to continue listening to a particular regional program and prevent the radio from automatically switching to a different frequency, switch the menu item frequencies unless reception deteriorates to the point that it is no longer possi­ble to pick up the frequency selected.

Traffic information TA (Traffic Announcement)
Traffic information is a service provided by the radio station networks. They broadcast traffic announcements at regular intervals. Radio stations offering traffic information broadcast a special signal to indicate that this service is available. If the TravelPilot identifies this signal, a TP symbol (TP=Traffic Program) will ap­pear in the status line in the main radio menu. If the TravelPilot TA function is active, traffic announcements will be broadcast at the minimum volume selected in the Set-up Volume. If the TA function is activated for the other sources, (CD player and CD changer as well as navigation), playback will be interrupted for an incoming traffic an­nouncement and the message will be broadcast. When the traffic announce­ment is completed, playback will resume.
If the TA function is active and you select a radio station manually which does not support traffic information, you will hear a warning beep. In this case, the system will start an automatic search for a TP station after the warning beep has sounded.

How to reduce interference in FM radio reception
When listening to FM radio stations, you will sometimes experience interference caused by neighbouring radio stations cutting in. This happens most often when a large number of stations are close to one another in frequency on the wave­band.
