RDS radio data services Fig. 10
RADIO main menu Fig. 11
Radio mode: list of stations. 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). RDS is not supported by all units and is not
avail

able everywhere or on every FM radio
station.
Depending on the country and the unit in
question, the RDS can be deactivated in the
FM setup menu ››› page 22.
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 22. Radio Text (RDS)
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. 8 A .
The R a
dio

Text display can be deactivated in
FM setup ››› page 22. Note
Radio stations are responsible for the content
of the inf orm

ation they transmit.16

mode. Fig. 13
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

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. 12.
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

The DAB main menu shows the name of the

DAB station.
The additional stations cannot be stored.
Automatic station tracking: change from DAB

DAB is currently not available in all areas . In
areas without DAB, 

dio mode.
Automatic station tracking can be activated
in DAB settings to change to the FM fre-
quency band ›››
page 23.
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 on the FM frequency band and tune to
it. Automatic station tracking between fre-
quency bands only works if the DAB station
and the FM station transmit the same station
identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corre-
sponding station on the FM frequency band. »

Audio and Media Mode
Once the corresponding FM station has been
f ou
nd,
(FM) is displayed after the station
name. When reception for the corresponding
DAB station returns, the unit will switch back
to DAB mode after a short time. The (FM)
display is hidden.
If the reception of the selected DAB station is
too weak and the station can no longer be
found on the FM frequency band, the radio
will be muted.
