Radio data system (RDS) RDS is a service of FM stations that
considerably facilitates the finding of
the desired station and its fault-free
reception.
Advantages of RDS ● On the display the programme name of the set station appears
instead of its frequency.
● During a station search the Infotainment system tunes in to
RDS stations only.● The Infotainment system always tunes into the best receivable
broadcasting frequency of the set station by means of AF
(Alternative Frequency).
● Depending on the station that is received, the Infotainment
system displays radio text that
can contain, e.g., information
about the current programme.

If regionalization is switched off,
alternative frequencies of the stations are selected without regard to

Digital audio broadcasting
DAB broadcasts radio stations
digitally.DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.
General information ● With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can be
broadcast on a single ensemble.
● Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data services including travel and
traffic information.
● As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out bya broadcasting station (even if
the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
● In the event of poor reception, the
volume is reduced automatically
to avoid the output of
disagreeable noises.
● If the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver,
reception is interrupted
completely. This incident can be
avoided by activating Autoensemble linking and/or Auto
linking DAB-FM in the DAB
settings menu.
● Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (a
phenomenon that is typical of AM and FM reception) does not
occur with DAB.
● If the DAB signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings,
the reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably
impaired in such cases.
● When DAB reception is enabled, the FM tuner of the Infotainmentsystem remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable
FM stations. If TP 3 93 is
activated, traffic announcements
of the FM station with the best
reception are issued. Deactivate
TP if you do not wish DAB
reception to be interrupted by FM
traffic announcements.

Speech recognition103Speech recognitionGeneral information...................103
Phone control ............................ 104General information
The speech recognition of the
Infotainment system enables you to operate the phone portal via voice
input. It recognises commands and
numeric sequences independently of
the current speaker. The commands
and numeric sequences can be
spoken without a voice pause
between the individual words.
You can save telephone numbers
assigning a name of your choice
(voice tag). Using these names, you
can later set up a telephone
connection.
In the event of incorrect operation or
commands, the speech recognition
gives you visual and/or acoustic
feedback and requests you to re-
enter the desired command. Apart
from this, the speech recognition
acknowledges important commands
and will enquire if necessary.
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of system
functions, the speech recognition
does not start until it has been
activated.Important notes on language
support
● Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment
system are also available for the
speech recognition.
● If the currently selected language
for the display is not supported by the speech recognition, you must enter the voice commands in
English.
To be able to enter voice
commands in English, you must
first activate the phone main
menu by pressing PHONE on the
Infotainment system, and then
activate the speech recognition
of the phone portal by pressing
w on the steering wheel.
