Digital audio broadcasting Digital audio broadcasting (DAB) is
an innovative and universal
broadcast system.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 frequency (ensemble).
■ As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out by a
broadcasting station (even if the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
■ There is no fading (weakening of the sound) that is typical of AM or
FM reception. The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ If the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver, receptionis interrupted completely. This can
be avoided by activating DAB AF
and/or DAB FM in the audio
settings menu.
■ Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (aphenomenon that is typical of AM
and FM reception) does not occur
with DAB.

The Mobile phone portal offers the opportunity to hold telephone
conversations using the mobile
phone via a vehicle microphone and vehicle loud speaker system and to
operate the most important mobile telephone functions via the
Infotainment system in the vehicle.
The Mobile phone portal is operated
via the steering wheel remote control
system, a speech recognition system
and a multifunction button on the
radio. The menu-driven operations
and status are shown via the info
display.

ended, the radio sound is switched on
again.General advice on these
operating instructions
You can find detailed functional
descriptions for your Infotainment
system in the operating instructions
included with your Infotainment
system.
Not all Mobile phone portal functions
are supported by every phone. The
telephone functions possible depend
on the mobile telephone used and the
network operator. Further information
is given in the operating instructions
for the mobile telephone and can be

environment. This is the reason why
safety rules and regulations were
drawn up. You should find out about
the relevant regulations before you

driving can be dangerous because
your concentration is reduced
when telephoning. Park your
vehicle before you use the hands- free facility. Follow the stipulations
of the country in which you find
yourself at present.
Do not forget to follow the special
regulations that apply in specific areas and always switch off the
mobile phone if the use of mobile

interference is caused by the
mobile phone or if dangerous
situations can occur.

range possible,
■ Maximum transmission power 10 watts,
■ Installation of the phone in a suitable spot, consider relevant
Note in the Owner's manual,
chapter Airbag system .Seek advice on predetermined
installation points for the external
antenna or equipment holder and
ways of using devices with a
transmission power exceeding 10
watts.
Use of a handsfree attachment
without external antenna with mobile
telephone standards GSM
900/1800/1900 and UMTS is only
permitted if the maximum
transmission power of the mobile
telephone is 2 watts for GSM 900 or
1 watt for the other types.
For reasons of safety, do not use the
