RDS radio data services (FM band) Fig. 13
Standard representation: FM station
li s
t
menu The RDS (Radio Data System) offers addition-
al
inf
orm

ation in FM such as the visualisation
of the station name, automatic station track-
ing (Alternative Frequencies AF), text emitted
by radio (Radio Text), traffic reports (TP) and
station types (PTY).
Due to matters of infrastructure, RDS func-
tions may be limited in certain countries, and
you may not be able to receive traffic an-
nouncements, automatic station tracking (AF)
or programme types (PTY).
Depending on the country and the unit in
question, the RDS can be deactivated in the FM setup menu ›››
page 24. Without RDS
it is
not possible to use radio
data services.
Name of the station and automatic station
tracking
If equipped with the RDS function, the names
of the stations can be displayed in the main
RADIO menu and in the FM station list .
FM radio stations may occasionally or contin-
uously broadcast different content on differ-
ent regional frequencies under the same sta-
tion name (e.g. Station 3).
By default, automatic station tracking always
switches to the currently selected station's
frequency that offers the best reception, as
the vehicle travels from one area to the next.
As a result, this may cause the regional sig-
nal to be lost.
Automatic frequency changing and automatic
station tracking can be deactivated in FM setup ››› page 24.
Set a station name 1)
In some cases the name of the station is too
long. This text may be blocked/unblocked by
pressing on the station name for 3 seconds
until hearing an audible signal (a dot will ap-
pear/disappear on the left and right of the
station name). Radio text
Some RDS-enab
led stations also broadcast
additional text information known as radio
text.
Radio Text is displayed in the upper half of
the screen above the memory buttons
››› Fig. 11 A .
The R a
dio

Text display can be deactivated in
FM setup ››› page 24.
Station list order
Stations that are available at a certain time
are displayed on the station list screen ( STA-
TION LIST function button). This list may
be arranged by station group, by genre or al-
phabetically ››› Fig. 13. Note

Audio and Media Mode
Digital radio mode (DAB, DAB+ and
audio DMB)* Fig. 14
Display of memory buttons in DAB
mode. Fig. 15
Display of station information in DAB
mode. The DAB radio receiver supports the DAB,
D
AB+ and DMB-Audio br
o
adcasting stand-
ards. In Europe, digital radio is transmitted via
Band III frequenc

ies (174 MHz to 240 MHz)
and the L Band (1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred
to as “channels” and each has a channel
name (e.g. 12 A ).
Several available DAB stations are combined
into one channel in an “ensemble”.
Starting Digital radio mode ● From the RADIO main menu pre
ss the BAND function button and select
D
AB .
The D AB r
a
dio station that was last selected
will be played if it can still be received at the
current location.
The selected DAB station is displayed in the
upper bar of the screen; the group of selec-
ted stations is displayed below ››› Fig. 14.
Additional DAB stations (Secondary Service
Components)
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional stations , (for example,
for broadcasting sports events).
DAB stations containing additional stations
are identified in the station list by means of
the symbol . Selecting additional stations
From the main screenPress the name of the main
station
Press the memory button of
the main station
From the station listSelect the additional station
from the list
The DAB main menu shows the name of the
ad
dition

al selected station on the right
alongside the abbreviated name of the main
DAB station.
The additional stations cannot be stored.
Automatic station tracking
DAB is currently not available in all areas. In
areas without DAB, 
is displayed in DAB ra-
dio mode.
If reception of the currently selected DAB sta-
tion is lost (e.g. no DAB reception available),
the infotainment system attempts to find the
station and tune to it on the other available
frequency bands. If the station still cannot be
found, the radio will be muted. Automatic
station tracking can be activated in the DAB
settings in the following modes ›››
page 25:
● DAB - DAB station tracking: The ra dio at
-
tempts to tune to the same station on an al-
ternative DAB frequency. Automatic station
tracking only works if both DAB stations
transmit the same station identifier or the
20

Audio and Media Mode
DAB signal indicates the other corresponding
D AB s
t
ation.
● Automatic DAB - FM switching: The radio
att
empts to tune to the same station on the
FM frequency band. Automatic station track-
ing between frequency bands only works if
both the DAB station and the FM station
transmit the same station identifier or the
DAB signal indicates a corresponding station
on the FM frequency band. Once the corre-
sponding FM station has been found, “FM” is
displayed after the station name. When re-
ception for the corresponding DAB station re-
turns, after a short time the unit will switch
back to DAB mode and “FM” will no longer be
displayed.
● Switch to a similar station: This al
lows
service providers to indicate alternative sta-
tions with similar content. This way, if the ra-
dio loses reception of a DAB station and can-
not find an alternative frequency for it on FM
or DAB, there is a possibility of tuning in to a
station with similar content.
Radio text
Some stations also broadcast additional text
information known as radio text.
Radio text is displayed either in the upper
half of the screen above the memory buttons
››› Fig. 14 or in the screens Station informa-
tion or Radio text, via the Screen view
menu ››› page 21. The radio text display can be deactivated in
