Safety information

The TravelPilot has been specifically designed for use in cars.

The special information required by navigation systems for lorries or busses, such as height restrictions or maximum permissible loads, is not included on the navigation CDs.

Load a CD into the CD drive.

For safety’s sake, load or change a CD only when your vehicle is stationary.

Do not open the operating panel unless you want to load a CD.

Close the operating panel immediately after you have loaded a CD to ensure that the system is ready for operation when you resume your trip.

When the operating panel is open, a red LED will flash as a warning. After 30 seconds you will hear a warning beep which indicates that you should close the operating panel.

Operating the system while driving

If you do not focus your full attention on the traffic situation at all times, you could cause serious accidents. To avoid being distracted by the TravelPilot, please observe the following information:

Before you take your first trip using the TravelPilot, make yourself familiar with the system and its operation.

Find a suitable area to temporarily park your vehicle if you want to re-program the TravelPilot.

Do not make any adjustments to the TravelPilot while driving unless the traffic situation allows.

Do not attempt to enter your destination unless the vehicle is stationary.

Radio operation

Starting radio operation

Press TU A.

Radio operation will begin and the main menu will appear in the display. The station you last tuned into will begin to play. The six softkeys located at the sides of the display are used to recall the radio stations which have been stored and to store the radio stations.

Selecting the waveband or memory bank

The TravelPilot allows you to tune into FM radio stations and AM radio stations. To select the FM or AM waveband,

Start radio operation and

Press TU A again.

You will access the functions menu and can now use the corresponding softkeys to select one of the memory banks.

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.

Main tuner menu

Tuner functions menu

Radio operation

 

You will access the DSC menu for radio operation and find the menu item for

 

RDS in the bottom line on the left. Here you can choose between the following

 

options: VAR, FIX and OFF. VAR is the default setting.

 

Press the softkey marked RDS repeatedly until the desired option is dis-

 

played next to RDS.

 

FIX: RDS radio operation is active. Because a number of radio stations trans-

 

mit not only their station names, but advertising as well, you can use this

 

setting to allow only the display of the station name. Alternating display

 

contents, such as advertising, will not appear on the screen.

 

VAR: The default setting, RDS radio operation is fully active. Alternating dis-

Tuner DSC menu

play contents will also appear on the screen.

 

OFF: 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 differ-

 

ent 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 re-

 

gional 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 REG in the DSC menu to ON. Then the radio will not switch

 

frequencies unless reception deteriorates to the point that it is no longer possi-

 

ble to pick up the frequency selected.

of the program they are broadcasting. This allows you to select stations broad-

 

 

casting the type of program you want to listen to more easily, e.g. POP or CLAS-

 

 

SICAL.

 

 

If you activate the PTY function in the DSC menu for radio operation, the pro-

 

 

gram type will appear briefly in the display when you select the station by press-

 

 

ing the station preset key, for example. If the station does not support the PTY

 

 

function, there will be no indication in the display.

 

 

Press DSC 8 to access the tuner DSC menu.

The Alarm is a special program type. If the TravelPilot detects an alarm mes-

 

 

sage, e.g. a disaster alert, a symbol will appear in the foreground of the display

 

 

and the alarm message will be emitted at the volume selected for traffic informa-

 

 

tion messages. The alarm message can be interrupted by pressing DSC 8, TU

Radio operation

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.

Activating/deactivating the TA function for radio operation

Use TA 4 to activate or deactivate the TA function. A TA symbol in the status line indicates that the TA function is active.

Interrupting traffic announcements

To interrupt traffic announcements, press TA 4, DSC 8, AUD 3, TU A or

CD·C ? or select a different radio station.

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 wave-

 

 

band. The TravelPilot has been equipped with the SHARX function to allow you

 

 

to virtually eliminate such interference.

 

 

Activating/deactivating SHARX

 

 

To activate or deactivate the TravelPilot’s SHARX function,

 

 

Press DSC 8 to access the tuner DSC menu and

 

 

Press the softkey marked SHARX repeatedly until the desired option ON

Tuner DSC menu

or OFF appears. ON is the default setting.
