RDS* and TP* radio data services (Traffic
Programme) Introduction
The RDS (Radio Data System) offers additional information in FM such as the
visualisation of the station name, automatic station tracking (Alternative
Frequencies), text emitted by radio (Radio Text) and traffic reports (TP).
Not all units have RDS, not all the FM stations offer this service and nor can
the infrastructure of all the countries permit it.
Without RDS, it is not possible to obtain radio data services.
To guarantee the best reception in places where RDS is available for the sta-
tions tuned in, select the following system settings ⇒ page 52:
● RDS ON
● ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCY ON
● RDS REGIONAL AUTO
Depending on the unit some settings may not be selected.
Additional information and warnings:
● Safety notes ⇒ page 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
● Radio mode ⇒ page 10
● System and function settings (SETUP) ⇒ page 52
Note
The radio stations are responsible for the content of the information sent. Radio data services RDS

With RDS the station name can be displayed instead of the frequency
⇒ Fig. 9.
Automatic station tracking
With the automatic station tracking the unit always switches to the frequen-
cy that offers the best reception of the current radio station as the vehicle
travels from one area to the next. In some units it is possible to suppress
automatic frequency changing ( ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCY OFF )
⇒ page 52.
Radio text
Some RDS-compatible stations also broadcast additional text information
known as radio text. It is possible to adjust the display to show radio text

TP traffic news station function (Traffic Programme)
Fig. 10 Traffic news monitoring in Media mode.
The TP (Traffic Programme) function is not available for all versions.
When the radio version does not have the traffic news reception function,
no action is taken when the TP
button is pressed (
TP is not displayed in the
upper left of the screen).
While traffic news monitoring is on (display: TP ⇒ Fig. 9), traffic announce-
ments will interrupt the current Audio mode.
Traffic news monitoring with the TP function is only possible if a traffic news
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 station interrupt the current au-
dio mode.
Switching the TP function on and off
● Press the unit button TP
⇒ Fig. 1 2.
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). While traffic news monitoring is switched on and active,
TP is displayed at
the top left of the screen ⇒ Fig. 9.
● Press the TP
unit button to switch the TP function off again.
Activated TP function and station selection
In FM mode, the selected station must support the TP function. If a station
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
SEEK / ...
rocker switch ⇒ Fig. 1 ⇒ page 11.
During a station search with the
SEEK / ...
rocker switch or the scan func-
tion (SCAN), the unit will only tune to stations that support the TP function.
If you activate the TP function in areas where TP is not available, it will be-
gin to search for traffic news stations but it will not be able find any. The
search will finish on the last station you were listening to. The TP function
remains switched on (display: No TP). We recommend you deactivate the TP
function, otherwise in the next station search with the
SEEK / ...
rocker
switch no stations will be found.
In AM mode or Media mode or while the unit is muted, the unit will always
automatically tune to a traffic news station in the background, provided the
reception of said station is good. This procedure may take some time, de-
pending on the situation. In AM mode or Media mode the currently selected
traffic news station is displayed next to TP ⇒ Fig. 10.
In units with a DAB radio receiver, depending on the settings, the traffic an-
nouncements from a DAB traffic news station can be played ( DAB TRAFFIC
ANNOUNCEMENT ON ⇒ page 52).
Reception of traffic announcements (INFO)
An incoming traffic announcement (display: TP-INFO) will interrupt the active
Audio mode.

Introduction
Some units are equipped with an additional DAB radio receiver. DAB is a
digital broadcasting standard for the terrestrial reception of radio programs.
Operation
DAB is also known as “digital radio” and is broadcast over band III
(174 MHz - 240 MHz) and band L (1452 MHz - 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred to as “channels” and each
has a channel name (e.g. 12 A).
Several DAB stations are combined in a channel with the additional services
available in a station “ensemble”.
Using these additional services additional information can be sent to the
radio (e.g. news, sports, weather, warnings, etc.).
DAB is currently not available in all areas. In areas without DAB, is dis-
played in DAB radio mode.
Settings can be made to display and play messages, to browse stations and
to browse traffic news stations (TP function) ⇒ page 52.
