34RadioDigital audio broadcasting
Digital audio broadcasting (DAB) is
an innovative and universal
broadcasting system.
Advantages of DAB ● DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.
● With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can be
broadcasted on a single
frequency (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.
● 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,
reception is interrupted
completely. This can be avoided
by activating DAB to DAB
Linking and/or DAB to FM
Linking in the DAB 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 32 is
activated, traffic announcements
of the FM station which is
currently best receivable are issued. Deactivate TP if you donot wish DAB reception to be
interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.
DAB settings
To configure the DAB settings
options, activate the radio function
and then select the DAB waveband.
Select MENU in the interaction
selector bar to display the DAB menu.
DAB announcements
Besides their music programmes, a
lot of DAB stations also broadcast announcements of various
categories. If you activate some or all categories, the DAB service currently

Radio35received is interrupted when an
announcement of these categories is made.
Select DAB Announcements to
display the DAB categories list.
Select the desired categories. The
categories selected are marked with
9 .
Notice
DAB announcements can only be
received if the DAB waveband is
activated.
DAB to DAB Linking
If this function is activated, the device
switches over to the same service
(programme) on another DAB
ensemble (frequency, if available)
when the DAB signal is too weak to
be picked up by the receiver.
Set DAB to DAB Linking - On or DAB
to DAB Linking - 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 - On or DAB
to FM Linking - Off .
L Band
If L Band is activated, the
Infotainment system receives an
additional frequency range. The
frequencies for L-band comprise
earth and satellite radio (1452 - 1492
MHz).
Set L Band - On or L Band - Off .
Intellitext
The Intellitext function allows for the
reception of additional information
such as announcements, financial
information, sports, news etc.
Select one of the categories and
choose a specific item to display
detailed information.

● Audio CDs with copy protection, which are not in compliance withthe audio CD standard, may not
play correctly or not at all.
● Self-recorded CD-Rs and CD- RWs are more vulnerable to
mishandling than prerecorded
CDs. Correct handling,
especially in the case of self-
recorded CD-Rs and CD-RWs,
must be ensured.
● Self-recorded CD-Rs and CD- RWs may not play correctly or notat all.

44NavigationNavigationGeneral information.....................44
Usage .......................................... 45
Destination input ..........................51
Guidance ..................................... 57General information
The navigation system will reliably guide you to your destination.
The current traffic situation is taken
into account in the route calculation.
For this purpose, the Infotainment
system receives traffic
announcements in the current
reception area via RDS-TMC.
The navigation system cannot,
however, take into account traffic
incidents, traffic regulations changed
at short notice and hazards or
problems that arise suddenly (e.g.
road works).Caution
The usage of the navigation
system does not release the driver
from the responsibility for a
correct, vigilant attitude in road
traffic. The relevant traffic
regulations must always be
followed. If a navigation instruction contradicts traffic regulations, the
traffic regulations always apply.
Functioning of the navigation
system
The position and movement of the
vehicle are detected by the navigation
system using sensors. The travelled
distance is determined by the
vehicle's speedometer signal, turning
movements on bends by a gyro
sensor. The position is determined by the GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites.
By comparing the sensor signals with the digital maps, it is possible to
determine the position with an
accuracy of approx. 10 metres.
The system will also work with poor
GPS reception. However, the
accuracy of the determination of the
position will be reduced.
After the entry of the destination
address or point of interest (nearest
petrol station, hotel, etc.), the route is
calculated from the current location to
the destination selected.
Route guidance is provided by voice
output and an arrow, as well as with
the aid of a multi-colour map display.

Navigation45Important informationTMC traffic information system and
dynamic route guidance
The TMC traffic information system
receives all current traffic information from TMC radio stations. This
information is included in the
calculation of the overall route. During
this process, the route is planned so that traffic problems related to pre-
selected criteria are avoided.
If there is a traffic problem during
active route guidance, depending on
the pre-settings, a message appears
as to whether the route should be
changed.
TMC traffic information is displayed in
the map display as symbols or as
detailed text on the TMC messages
menu.
To be able to use TMC traffic
information, the system must receive
TMC stations in the relevant region.
The TMC traffic stations can be
selected in the navigation menu
3 45.Map data
All required map data is stored within
the Infotainment system. To update
your map software via the USB port,
contact your workshop.
Usage
To display the navigation map,
press ; and then select the NAV
icon.Route guidance not active
The current location is indicated by a
circle with an arrow pointing into the
direction of travel.
After a timeout of approx.
15 seconds, the application tray and
the interaction selector bar disappear
to show a full screen view of the map.
To redisplay the application tray and
the interaction selector bar, touch the
screen.

50NavigationDownloading contacts data
You can exchange your vehicle
contacts list data with Infotainment
systems in other vehicles:
To upload the data to a USB device,
see "Uploading navigation data to a
USB device" above.
Connect the USB device to the
Infotainment system of another
vehicle 3 39.
A message is displayed that prompts
you to confirm the download.
After confirmation, the contacts data
is downloaded to the Infotainment
system.
The downloaded contacts are then
selectable via the CONTACTS menu
3 22.
Creating and downloading user
defined POIs (My POIs)
In addition to the predefined POIs
already stored in the Infotainment
system, you can create user defined
POIs that meet your personal
requirements. After creation, suchuser defined POIs can be
downloaded to the Infotainment
system.
For each POI, you must define the GPS coordinates (longitude and
latitude values) of the respective
location and a descriptive name.
After downloading the POI data to the Infotainment system, you will find the
respective POIs as selectable
destinations in the My POIs menu,
see "Selecting a point of interest" in chapter "Destination input" 3 51.
Creating a text file with POI data
Create a text file (e.g. by using a
simple text editor software) with an
arbitrary name and the file
extension .poi, e.g. "TomsPOIs.poi".
Notice
Character encoding UTF-8
(Unicode) must be selected when
storing the text file. Otherwise the
POI data may not be imported
correctly to the system.
Enter the POI data into the text file in
the following format:
Longitude coordinate, Latitude
coordinate, "Name of POI",
"Additional information", "Phone
number"
Example:
7.0350000, 50.6318040, "Michaels
Home", "Bonn, Hellweg 6",
"02379234567" , see image above.
The GPS coordinates must be expressed in decimal degrees and
can be taken, e.g., from a
topographical map.
