Audio mode
RDS and automatic station tracking (only in FM)
RDS is a radio data service which makes it possible to receive additional
services such as the display of station names, automatic station tracking
(AF) and the TP function (Traffic Program ⇒ page 17).
With automatic station tracking, when the vehicle is in motion the station
always changes to the frequency with the best reception in that moment. If
the reception is poor, the unit may be muted for a short time as it searches
for alternative frequencies (AF).
RDS does not exist everywhere nor is it available for all stations.
Depending on the country and the unit, it is possible that the RDS and the
alternative frequencies (AF) are deactivated ⇒ page 30. 
Changing frequency band
The currently selected frequency band (FM or AM) is indicated above the
station display.
● In Radio mode, briefly press the RADIO

⇒  Fig. 1 equipment button to dis-
play the function buttons FM1, FM2, AM1, AM2, DA1* and DA2*
⇒  Fig. 2.
● Press one of the FM or AM function buttons to switch to the DAB*, FM or
AM frequency band.
● OR: Press the RADIO
unit button as often as required to switch between
the frequency bands and memory levels. Changing stations

TP (Traffic Program) function
Introduction
The TP function is an RDS radio data service.
While traffic news monitoring is on (display: TP), traffic announcements will
interrupt the current Audio mode.
On the AM frequency band, traffic news monitoring is not possible.
Additional information and warnings:
● Safety notes  ⇒  page 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
● Basic information on use ⇒ page 8
● Radio mode ⇒ page 10 
Monitoring traffic news stations using the TP function
Fig. 14 TP function
active.
Traffic news monitoring with the TP function is only possible if the TP station
is available. Some stations that do not broadcast their own traffic news support the TP
function through a link to a traffic news station (EON). Traffic announce-
ments broadcast by the linked traffic news stations interrupt the current au-
dio mode.
Switching the TP function on and off
● Press the unit button TP
⇒ Fig. 1
7.
If the station that is currently selected in FM mode does not support the TP
function, the unit will automatically search for a TP station (display: TP
SEEK).
● Press the TP
unit button to switch the TP function off again.
When in areas without TP coverage the TP function is activated, and search
is begun for a traffic news station, ending in the failure to find a station. The
search then returns to the station to which it was originally tuned. The TP
function remains switched on (display: No TP). It is necessary to deactivate
the TP function, otherwise no stations will be found in the subsequent
search using the arrow buttons.
TP function activated
While traffic news monitoring is switched on and enabled, TP is displayed
⇒  Fig. 14.
In radio mode, the selected station must support the TP function. If a sta-
tion selected via the station buttons or manual tuning does not support the
TP function, traffic news monitoring is not possible (display: NO TP).
If the currently selected traffic news station can no longer be received,
NO TP is also displayed and you will need to start a manual station search
using the arrow buttons 

⇒  Fig. 1 10 and

⇒  page 10.
During a station search with the arrow buttons or the scan function (SCN),
the unit will only tune to stations that support the TP function.
In Media mode or while the unit is muted, the unit will automatically tune to
a traffic news station in the background, provided the TP station available 
