Radio data system (RDS)
RDS is a service of FM stations that considerably improves the finding of
the desired station and its fault-free
reception.
Advantages of RDS ● On the display, the programme name of the 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 on
the current programme.FM menu
To configure the RDS settings
options, activate the radio function
and then select the FM waveband.
Press MENU to display the FM menu.
RDS
Set RDS to On or Off.
Traffic Programme (TP)
Radio traffic service stations are RDS
stations that broadcast traffic news. If the traffic service is switched on, the
currently active function is interrupted for the duration of the traffic
announcement.
If the radio traffic service is activated,
[TP] is shown in the top line of all main
menus. If the current station or media played is not a radio traffic service
station, [ ] is displayed and a search
is started automatically for the next
radio traffic service station. As soon
as a radio traffic service station is
found, [TP] is highlighted. If no radio
traffic service station is found, [ ]
remains on the screen.
If a traffic announcement is
broadcasted on the respective radio
traffic service station, a message is
displayed.
To interrupt the announcement and
return to the function previously
activated, dismiss the alert.
Region
Sometimes RDS stations broadcast
regionally different programmes on
different frequencies.
Set Region to On or Off.
If regionalisation is switched on,
alternative frequencies with the same
regional programmes are selected
where necessary.
Page 104 of 123

104RadioIf regionalisation is switched off,
alternative frequencies of the stations
are selected without regard to
regional programmes.
Digital audio broadcasting
DAB broadcasts radio stations
digitally.
Advantages of DAB ● DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.
● With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can bebroadcasted 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 can be avoided
by activating DAB to DAB
Linking and/or DAB to FM
Linking in the DAB option menu
(see below).
● 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 3 103 isactivated, traffic announcements
of the FM station with the best
reception are issued. Deactivate
TP if DAB reception should not
be interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.
DAB menu To configure the DAB settings
options, activate the radio function
and then select the DAB waveband.
Press MENU to display the DAB
menu.

display the DAB categories list.
Select the desired categories. The
selected categories are marked with

(programme) on another DAB
ensemble (if available) when the DAB
signal is too weak to be picked up by
the receiver.
Set DAB to DAB Linking to On or Off.DAB to FM Linking
If this function is activated, the device
switches over to a corresponding FM
station of the active DAB service (if
available) when the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver.
Set DAB to FM Linking to On or Off.
L Band
If L Band is activated, the
Infotainment system receives an additional frequency range (1452 -
1492 MHz).
Set L Band to On or Off.

reception of additional information
such as announcements, financial
information, sports, news etc.
