four safety classes. The audio devices used in your vehicle are classified as
safety class 1. Lasers used in devices that fall into this category are very weak
and well shielded, so there is no danger if used correctly.

28Instructions relating to memory cardsThe system is compatible with SD and MMC memory cards.The two MP3 memory card drives have been tested for use with many prod-
ucts currently available on the market. However, there may be some memory
cards which are not supported.
Store the memory cards in a suitable case to protect them from dirt and dust
and to avoid scratches or other kind of damage.
Caution
Only use one-piece SD/MMC memory cards. If you use SD/MMC adapter
cards (more than one piece), the memory card can detach from the adapter
(e.g. caused by jolting, etc). Parts could then get stuck in the drive.
Note
The quality of the MP3 function may vary for certain types of memory card.iPod interface*General notes
The iPod interface can be used to connect an iPod to your
navigation system and allows you to play audio files directly
over the vehicle's sound system.The iPod interface is located in your vehicle's glove box. It is compatible with
3rd generation or higher iPod
2) devices (made from about 2003 onwards),
with the exception of the iPod Shuffle. The iPod is controlled using the CD function
⇒page 48.
•The navigation system orders (first numerically and then alphabetically)
the playlists with the tracks stored in the iPod and then assigns them in the
sequence CD 1 to CD 5. For easier playing of these playlists through the
vehicle's sound system, we recommend you create five playlists (e.g. 1.... to
5....) in your iPod.•If you select CD 6, all the tracks on the iPod will be played even if they are
stored in different playlists.
Information stored on the iPod, such as artist, track, album and genre, or the
name of a playlist, does not appear on the navigation system display.Caution
Very high or very low temperatures (a common occurrence in a vehicle's inte-
rior) can cause damage to the iPod and/or impair its performance.•Please do not leave your iPod in the vehicle in case of extreme tempera-
tures.Note
Please refer to the iPod operating instructions for important information on
how to use your iPod.2)iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Computer Inc.

– Select the desired radio station in the main FM radio menu with the control knob.All the FM stations that can be received are on this list. The list is limited to a
maximum of 30 stations.
If you listen to FM radio stations for more than 45 seconds, they become so-
called “favourite stations”. These stations are stored on the first six positions
of the FM station list.
When all six positions for “favourite stations” are occupied and you listen to
a station that is not one of the favourite stations for more than 45 seconds,
the new station will be stored in the favourite stations list. The “favourite
station” that you have not listened to for the longest will be pushed further
down the list (e.g. positions seven to thirty).
You can delete the six favourite stations from the list with the option Delete
last stations ⇒ page 46 under the Setup Radio function. Thereafter, any stations that you listen to for more than 45 seconds will be stored automati-
cally in one of the first six positions in the station list.

programmes. In Germany, for instance, Bavarian radio's first channel broad-
casts regional programmes with differing content at certain times. These
cover Munich (display shows BR1 MUN), Swabia (BR1 SH) and Upper Bavaria
(BR1 OBB). The system searches for the strongest frequency signal and tunes
into it. This can lead to varying programme contents with regional stations. If
you want to continue listening to the current regional programme, switch on
