Radiotext
It takes some time until the aired messages
are fully available in the system. In the mean-
time, the radio will display the message
“WAIT”.
Afterwards, the text will be displayed.
If the adjusted station does not provide ra-
diotext information, the message “NO TEXT”
is displayed.
The system will switch to the linked
station NDR2 for the duration of the
“POP” programme.
Radiotext is an RDS feature used by the
broadcasters to transmit texts.
The texts can be displayed in two subse-
quent lines with a maximum of 64 charac-
ters each, which are moved through the dis-
play slowly.
Depending on the individual broadcaster,
these texts can be of a different nature, for
example brief news, program information,
commercial broadcasts, etc.
For safety reasons, the radiotext function
can only be used if the ignition is switched
off. When activating this function with the
ignition being switched on, the message “NO
TEXT” will appear in the display.
During tape or CDC operation, the set will
also automatically switch to the programme
offering the selected PTY within the broad-
casting network.
After the PTY programme the system will
remain in the radio mode.
When tuning to another station, “WAIT” will
be displayed before the radiotext appears.
To switch off radiotext:
•
Press DIS for about 1 second or turn
Notice:

As earlier mentioned, these functions are
currently only supported by a limited number
of RDS stations.
To read radiotext messages, proceed as
follows:
Park the vehicle in a suitable place and turn
off the ignition. The radio will be switched
off automatically.

In order to reactivate the car radio,
press the ON button for about 1 sec-

Traffic Memo (TIM)
This set is equipped with a digital speech
memory, making it possible to automatically
record up to four traffic messages lasting a
maximum of four minutes.
When the radio is switched on and “TP” dis-
played, the system will record all incoming
messages of the tuned in station.
If the priority for traffic announcements is
activated (“TA” shown on the display pan-
el), the set will also record the messages
broadcast by the traffic station of the same
programme network (see also “Receiving
traffic programme stations with RDS-EON”).
If “TIM ON” is briefly displayed when switch-
ing off the radio, the TIM standby mode is
active. In this case the deactivated radio will
be ready to record the traffic information
broadcast for 90 minutes before and after
the programmed TIM times.
What is more, the radio will record the traf-
fic bulletins broadcast by the tuned in sta-
tion for three hours after having turned off
the set.
Depending on the length of the new mes-
sage, the oldest messages are automatically
deleted.
If a message is longer than four minutes,
“OVERFLOW” will be displayed after four
minutes of playback, followed by a beep tone
indicating that the system was unable to
record the message in full.
