Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry of the code, the procedure can be re-
peated once again . The number of attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
If the code is entered incorrectly a second time, the unit will be blocked for ap-
prox. one hour. It is possible to enter again the safety code after one hour has ex-
pired, when the unit and the ignition have been switched on.
If two invalid attempts are then made again, the radio navigation system will be
blocked again for one hour. Note
The code is normally saved in the instrument cluster memory. This ensures that it
is automatically decoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is nor-
mally not necessary. ÐScreen display
The screen of the unit displays information such as from the Climatronic, the vehi-
cle distance to an obstacle if the
“parking aid” has been activated, etc. ÐProduct Overview

ices, thus enabling automatic station tracking, for example.
In the event of sufficiently satisfactory reception, the suitable RDS radio stations
will display the station name instead of the station frequency.
If a radio station transmits additional information via the RDS function while a
station is being stored, it may occur that the name of the radio station is later dis-
played incorrectly in the preset list.

Irrespective of which radio station you are listening to, an additional receiver part
in the unit ensures that a traffic programme station can always be received as
long as the traffic programme function is switched on. During media mode, the
unit always searches for an available traffic program station in the background.
The availability of traffic programme monitoring is identified by the letters

“TP” at
the top right of the screen.
If no traffic programme station can be received because, for example, radio recep-
tion is interrupted in general, “No TP” will be displayed instead of “TP”. Ð 13

DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial)
With DVB-T, the TV signal is transmitted terrestrially. DVB-T allows reception in
high quality.
The supply of DVB-T is currently limited in particular to industrial areas and urban
centres. It is for this reason that a Hybrid tuner was developed for the unit, which
consists of a common analog TV receiver and a DVB-T receiver.
The TV stations which can be received are indicated in the information display
and when switching over and calling up the TV menu on the display. Analogue
and digital TV stations are displayed differently and are marked on the touch-
screen with
“Analog.” or “DVB-T ”.
