Traffic information station reception with RDS-EON

The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-hanced Other Networks, which means thatinformation is exchanged within a radio net-work.

Many FM radio stations provide their serv-ice area with traffic messages at regular in-tervals.

Along with their programs, all traffic infor-mation stations transmit a special carrier sig-nal, which is decoded by your car radio. Ifthis signal is identified, “TP” will appear inthe display (Traffic Program).

In addition to these, there are also stationswhich do not actually transmit traffic infor-mation themselves, but by using RDS-EONit is possible for them to forward the trafficmessages broadcast by another traffic in-formation station in the same radio network.

If you want to have the priority for traffic an-nouncements activated while listening toone of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA”(Traffic Announcement priority) must appearon the display panel.

If a traffic announcement is broadcast, theradio will automatically switch to the linkedtraffic program station (in this case, NDR2)for the duration of the message and returnto the original program (NDR3) afterwards.

Traffic announcement priorityon/off

If the priority for traffic announcement pro-grams is activated, “TA” will light up in thedisplay.

To switch the priority on or off:• Press TU to access menu level 2.

• Press the TA button.If you press STOP while a message is be-ing broadcast, this message will be inter-rupted. The unit will then switch back to theprevious mode. The priority for other trafficmessages remains active.

Warning beep

If you leave the reception area of the trafficinformation station you are currently tunedinto, you will hear a warning beep at inter-vals of approx. 30 seconds.This warning beep will also be emitted if youpress a preset button for a station whichdoes not send the traffic information signal.

Switching the warning beep off

a) Tune into another station offering traf-fic information:

• Press the rocker switch or

• press a preset button which has a traf-fic information station allocated to it.

Clock - Time

This car audio system is equipped with abuilt-in clock which automatically takes ad-vantage of RDS to ensure highly accuratetime-keeping (hours, minutes).

For the clock to function properly with RDS,an RDS station with the CT function (CT -clock time) must be received.

If this signal is not available, the audio sys-tem will attempt to receive the DCF-77 timesignal (atomic clock) to correct the time thenext time it is switched off. The display willindicate “CLK Sync” while it is synchronis-ing the time.

The automatic time correction feature canbe switched off.

Displaying the clock

You can set the clock to permanent displayin any of the operating modes (radio, CD,changer).

To do so• Use TU, CD or CDC to select the oper-

ating mode.

• Press DIS repeatedly until the time ap-pears in the top line of the display.

The clock will now appear in the display asthe main element.

Clock display when the audio system isswitched off

You can have the clock displayed when theignition is switched on, but the audio sys-tem is switched off. Make the correspond-ing setting in the DSC menu.If necessary, refer to the section on “DSCprogramming - CLK, VIEW”.

Setting the clock

a) automatically

The clock is set automatically when theradio is tuned into an RDS stationwhich has the “CT” function (clocktime).

b) manually with DSC-CLK

It is not necessary to adjust the clockmanually unless it is not possible to re-ceive an RDS radio station with CT(Clocktime).

If you would like to set the clock manu-ally, refer to the section on “DSC pro-gramming - CLK, SET”.

DNC – Dynamic Noise Covering

DNC is used when the vehicle is in motionto boost the car audio system’s volume to alevel which is considered pleasant in thestationary vehicle.The volume is boosted at different levels forthe different frequency ranges, dependingon the amount of noise which develops inthe vehicle.This keeps the volume and the sound of theaudio equipment at acceptable levels whilethe background noise changes. Short-termnoise, such as the noise made when youdrive over a set of railway tracks, will notaffect the volume.

Adjusting DNCIf DNC is to operate correctly for your vehi-cle, it is necessary to take a reading withthe microphone. Take the DNC reading af-ter you take the hi-fi self-adjustment read-ings. Use the enclosed tape to secure themicrophone somewhere near the dash-board, but not in the foot area, near any-thing that reverberates or near the heating/cooling fans.The microphone head must be facing to-wards the passengers. The reading shouldbe taken in a quiet area with the engineswitched off.

To start taking the reading:• Press DSA.

• Press DNC for approx. 1 sec. until“DNC Adj” appears in the top line ofthe display.

The DNC reading will now begin and becompleted fully automatically.As soon as “DNC 3” appears in the top lineof the display, the reading has been com-pleted. The value will be set to average DNCsensitivity automatically.

Adjusting DNC sensitivityThe volume boost can be set to five differ-ent levels:Select DNC 1 if you have a loud engine andusually listen to music with a lot of bass,select DNC 5 if your vehicle runs very qui-etly and you usually select classical music.After you have taken a reading, the valuewill automatically be set to DNC 3.

To alter the sensitivity• press DNC briefly, the value selected

will appear in the top line of the dis-play.

Press / to alter the value as desired.

Press ENT to store this new setting andpress EXIT to quit the DSA menu.

Switching DNC on/off
