Press the corresponding preset button
briefly to recall the station.
Switching from stereo to mono
(FM)
If reception is poor, you may get better sound
quality by switching to mono:
•
Hold down the MIX / lo button until the
display shows "MONO" or "STEREO".
For mono playback, the stereo sign
will disappear from the display.
Each time the radio is switched on, it is
automatically adjusted for stereo playback.
The unit will automatically switch to mono if
the received signal is not strong enough for
stereo playback.
Receiving traffic programme stations with RDS-EON
The abbreviation "EON" stands for En-
hanced Other Networks, meaning the ex-
change of information within a radio network.
Many FM broadcasters offer traffic messag-
es for their service area at regular intervals.
All traffic programme stations transmit a spe-
cial carrier signal alongside their pro-
grammes, which is decoded by your car
radio. If this signal is identified, "TP" will
appear in the display (Traffic Programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic pro-
grammes themselves, but by using RDS-
EON they offer the possibility to receive the
traffic messages broadcast by another traffic
programme station in the same radio net-
work.
If you listen to one of these stations (e.g.
NDR3), "TP" will appear in the display as
soon as the priority for traffic information
stations is activated, i.e. "TA" must light up as
well.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR3)
afterwards.
Traffic announcement priority
on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement pro-
grammes is activated, "TA" will light up in the
display.
To switch the priority on or off:
•
Press the TA button.
When pressing TA while a message is being
broadcast, this message will be interrupted.
The unit will then switch back to the previous
condition. The priority for all other traffic
messages remains active.
Beep tone
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
programme station currently tuned into, you
will hear a beep tone after approximately 30
sec.
This tone will also be released when pressing
a preset button which has no traffic pro-
gramme allocated to it.
