Safety notes

WARNING

Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating the infotainment system while driving can distract your attention from the traffic.

● Always drive carefully and responsibly.

● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from outside the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).

● Setting the volume too high may damage your hearing. This also applies if you are exposed to high volumes for short periods only.

WARNING

The volume level may suddenly change when you switch audio source or connect a new audio source.

●

Reduce the base volume before switching audio source or connecting a new audio source

⇒ page 8.

WARNING

Connecting, inserting or removing a data medium while the vehicle is in motion can distract you from the road and lead to accidents.

WARNING

Connecting leads for external devices may obstruct the driver.

● Arrange the connecting leads so that they do not obstruct the driver.

WARNING

External devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly secured could be flung though the interior and cause injuries during a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.

● You should never position or attach an external device on a door, on the windscreen or above or near to the areas marked “AIRBAG” on the steering wheel, the dash panel and the seat backrests, or between these areas and the vehicle occupants. External devices can cause serious injury in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate.



WARNING

An armrest may obstruct the driver's arm movements, which could cause accidents and severe injuries.

● Always keep the armrest closed while the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING

Opening the housing on a CD player can lead to injuries from invisible laser radiation.

●

CD players should only be repaired by a qualified workshop.

CAUTION

● When inserting and removing the CD, always hold it at right angles to the front of the unit without scratching or tilting it.

● Inserting a second CD while a CD is already inserted or being ejected may damage the CD player. Always wait until the data medium is completely ejected.

CAUTION

The CD drive can be damaged by any foreign objects attached to a data medium, and by irregularly shaped data media.

● Only clean standard 12 cm CDs should be used.

– Do not affix stickers or other items to the data medium. Stickers may peel off and damage the drive.

– Do not insert 8 cm single CDs or irregularly shaped CDs or DVDs.

– Do not insert DVD Plus discs, dual discs or flip discs, as these are thicker than normal CDs.

CAUTION

The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged if the volume is too high or the sound is distorted.

RDS* and TP* radio data services (Traffic

Programme)

Introduction

The RDS (Radio Data System) offers additional information in FM such as the visualisation of the station name, automatic station tracking (Alternative

Frequencies), text emitted by radio (Radio Text) and traffic reports (TP).

Not all units have RDS, not all the FM stations offer this service and nor can the infrastructure of all the countries permit it.

Without RDS, it is not possible to obtain radio data services.

To guarantee the best reception in places where RDS is available for the stations tuned in, select the

following system settings

⇒ page 38:

● RDS ON

● ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCY ON

● RDS REGIONAL AUTO

Depending on the unit some settings may not be selected.



rocker switch

⇒ Fig. 1 ⇒ page 11.

During a station search with the



SEEK / ...



rocker switch or the scan function (SCAN), the unit will only tune to stations that support the TP function.

If you activate the TP function in areas where

TP is not available, it will begin to search for traffic news stations but it will not be able find any. The search will finish on the last station you were listening to. The TP function remains switched on (display:

No TP

). We recommend you deactivate the TP function, otherwise in the next station search with the



SEEK / ...



rocker switch no stations will be found.

In AM mode or Media mode or while the unit is muted, the unit will always automatically tune to a traffic news station in the background, provided the reception of said station is good. This procedure may take some time, depending on the situation. In AM mode or Media mode the currently selected traffic news station is displayed next to

TP

DAB* radio mode

Function only available in Europe

Introduction

Some units are equipped with an additional DAB radio receiver. DAB is a digital broadcasting standard for the terrestrial reception of radio programs.

Operation

DAB is also known as “digital radio” and is broadcast over band III

(174 MHz - 240 MHz) and band L (1452 MHz - 1492 MHz).

The frequencies of the two bands are referred to as “ channels” and each has a channel name (e.g.

12 A

).

Several DAB stations are combined in a channel with the additional services available in a station “ ensemble”.

Using these additional services additional information can be sent to the radio (e.g. news, sports, weather, warnings, etc.).

DAB is currently not available in all areas. In areas without DAB,



is displayed in DAB radio mode.

Settings can be made to display and play messages, to browse stations and

to browse traffic news stations (TP function)

Introduction

Media sources are audio sources containing audio files on various different data media (e.g. CD, external MP3 player). These audio files can be played

by the radio system from its corresponding players or audio input sockets

(internal CD player , external CD changer, AUX-IN multimedia socket).

Restrictions and notes

Contamination, exposure to high temperatures and mechanical damage can render a data medium unusable. Please observe the manufacturer's instructions.

Variations in the quality of data media produced by different manufacturers may lead to problems during playback.

Please observe copyright laws.

CDs recorded in UDF or Direct CD format cannot be played. Under Windows

Vista

®

ensure that the correct format is selected.

The unit may be unable to read individual tracks or the entire data medium due to the data medium configuration or the devices and programs used for recording. Compatibility with all encoding/recording software, recording devices and recording media cannot be guaranteed. Incompatible USB devices can make noise, interrupt playback or not playback at all. Information about the best ways to create audio files and data media (compression rate, ID3 tag etc.) can be found on the Internet.

Due to the larger quantity of data, it takes longer to read a data medium containing compressed audio files (MP3, WMA etc.) than a “normal” audio

CD. Complex folder structures can also slow down the reading of a data medium.

Playlists only determine a certain playing order. There are no files stored in a playlist. The unit will not play a playlist if the files are not stored on the data medium at the locations referred to by the playlist (relative file paths).

MP3 CD structure.

Audio files  on data media are often sorted by folders  and playlists  to determine a certain playing order.

Tracks, folders and playlists on a data medium are sorted by name in alphabetic or numeric order.

Subfolders are treated like folders and numbered in accordance with the sequence on the CD.

Introduction

Depending on the version of the vehicle, the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface may be in a different location. Please refer to the vehicle Instruction Manual to locate the position of the socket.

The supported file formats listed below are collectively referred to as “audio files”.

Audio files on an external data medium connected to the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface can be played and controlled via the radio system.

Where this manual refers to external data media, this means USB mass storage devices containing supported audio files, such as MP3 players, iPods™ and USB sticks. External data media are displayed as

MDI

(Media Device Interface) on the radio system.

The MEDIA-IN multimedia interface supplies the usual USB voltage of approximately 5 volts.



Audio mode 31

● When playing large capacity hard discs with several files and a complex data structure (several folders and subfolders, non-playable files, etc.) it may take some time to read the audio files. The reaction time may also be influenced by the connected device.

● WMA (Windows Media Audio) audio files can only be played if they are not protected by authors' rights with the DRM (Digital Rights Management) system.

● Generally, files with anti-copy protection cannot be played (e.g. M4P).

● It is not possible to play files in 3GP format or “WMA lossless” files.

Check there are no MP3 files stored in the playlist. A playlist only defines a certain order of play. If a playlist cannot be played, check that the “relative paths” are correct, i.e. that the MP3 files on the data medium are actually stored at the locations referenced by the playlist.

If an external data medium is divided into several partitions, only the

first

partition with compatible audio files will be played.

Please refer to further limitations and notes on the requirements placed on media sources

⇒ page 21.

WARNING

● The connected audio devices must be protected from possible mechanical damage and other kind of wear.

● We do not hold responsible for any possible damage on the connected devices.

● The connection of USB devices is sensitive to interference from mobile telephones. Mobile telephones should not be left next to the USB when this is connected, to prevent distortion.

●

The connected audio devices must be protected from possible mechanical damage and other kind of wear.

●

Objects which are not secured in the vehicle compartment may interfere with driving and could result in serious injury.

WARNING (Continued)

● The external data device should never be left on the dash panel. A sharp manoeuvre can throw the device towards the compartment and injure the vehicle passengers.

● The external data device should never be mounted in the vicinity of the airbag. If an airbag is activated it can project the device towards the compartment and injure the vehicle passengers.

●

The external data device must not be held in hand or on the legs while driving. A sharp manoeuvre can throw the device towards the compartment and injure the vehicle passengers.

●

Place the external data device cables so that they are not in the way while driving.

CAUTION

Make sure that the adapter lead is not pinched or severely bent. This can damage the adapter lead and cause functional faults.

Note

Some vehicles with the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface mounted on the centre armrest are also equipped with an additional compartment. The rubber insert of this compartment can be removed in order to extract small objects which may have fallen inside.

Note

● Do not connect an external media player to the radio-navigation system via Bluetooth and via the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface

at the same time, as this could lead to limitations in playback.

● The use of memory card adapters or USB hubs can cause problems in reading files.
