Always make sure that you are still able to hear any warning signals coming from out- side the vehicle, such as police or fire engine sirens, so that you can react accordingly. Consequently, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car radio while you are driving. Installation If you would like to install your new car ster- eo yourself or add other audio components to existing ones, then please read the en- closed instructions on installation and con- nection carefully. In order to ensure that the set operates prop- erly the positive power supply line must be connected via the ignition and the perma- nent +12 V lead. Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs! Warning note Danger of damaging the automatic power antenna in a car wash Before you drive into a car wash -switch the radio off by pressing the ON button. The power antenna will retract, if it doesnt, press ON again. Do not drive into the car wash unless the power antenna has retracted! Important notes What you need to know Before using your new car radio, please read through the following information carefully. Traffic safety As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your re- sponsibility to pay attention to the traffic situ- ation at all times. Never use your car radio in a way that could distract you. Please keep in mind that you travel a distance of 14 m per second at a speed of only 50 km/h. Should the traffic situation become particu- larly demanding, we advise you not to use the radio.

36 Traffic programme station reception with RDS-EON 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 AF·TA button. TA appears. If you press AF·TA while a message is be- ing broadcast, this message will be inter- rupted. The unit will then switch back to the previous mode. The priority for other traffic messages remains active. Please note that several buttons have no function while a traffic announcement is broadcast. Warning beep If you leave the reception area of the traffic programme station currently tuned into, you will hear a warning beep after approximate- ly 30 seconds. This alarm tone will also be emitted if you press a preset button for a station which does not send the traffic programme signal (TP).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 traffic programme station allocated to it. Alternatively: b) Switch off the priority for traffic an- nouncements: -Press TA. TA will disappear from the dis- play. Automatic seek tuning start (Cassette and CD changer operation) If you leave the reception area for the traffic programme station you have tuned into while you are listening to a cassette or CD, the system will automatically start search- ing for a new traffic programme. If no such station is found within approxi- mately 30 seconds, a warning beep will sound every 30 seconds. To switch the warning beep off, proceed as described above. The abbreviation EON stands for En- hanced Other Networks, which means that information 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 programmes, all traffic pro- gramme stations transmit a special carrier signal, 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 infor- mation themselves, but by using RDS-EON it is possible for them to forward the traffic messages broadcast by another traffic programme station in the same radio net- work. If you want to have the priority for traffic announcements activated while listening to one of these stations (e.g. NDR4), TA must appear on the display panel. 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 (NDR4) afterwards.
