RADIO TUNING
If you know the frequency of the radio
station you are seeking, or you need to select
a radio station that is too weak to be found
by automatic tuning, use manual tuning, as
follows:
Select the desired waveband (FM or AM),
then press the’MAN’button (6). By briefly
pressing either tuning button (5), the
frequency changes (either up or down) in
steps of 0.1 MHz for FM, or 1 kHz for MW
and LW.
Fast manual tuning
By keeping either manual tuning button
depressed, the waveband is scanned rapidly
(up or down) until the button is released.
Automatic tuning
Select the required waveband (FM or AM),
then briefly press one of the tuning buttons
(5) - (’SEEK’along with the chosen
waveband appear in the display).
The radio automatically searches the
frequency range (either up or down
depending upon which button is pressed)
looking for a station of acceptable strength.
The search then stops unless you choose to
continue by pressing the tuning button
again.
The search can be stopped at any time by
pressing any pre-set button.
8ICE010365
Waveband scan
Select the desired waveband (FM or AM) and
press the SCAN button (8). The radio scans
through the waveband, seeking stations of
acceptable strength (the waveband,
frequency and’SC’are displayed). The radio
stops at each one it finds and plays that
station for 5 seconds, the radio then mutes
and scans for the next station.
To stop the scan, press the button again -
the radio commences playing the station at
which the scan was stopped.
NOTE:If you have a car telephone with a
mute signal output connected to the radio,
the radio automatically mutes when the
telephone is in use.
MONO/STEREO
Whenever the FM waveband is selected, the
radio automatically reproduces stereo sound,
provided a suitable signal is available.
However, if a signal becomes too weak for
good stereo reception, only mono sound is
produced until the signal strengthens
sufficiently for stereo sound reproduction. 
						

							Radio Pre-set Buttons
10
743ICE0104
RADIO PRE-SET BUTTONS
The six pre-set buttons (7) can be used to
manually store up to twelve FM stations (six
each on FM1 and FM2), twelve MW stations
(six each on MW1 and MW2), and six LW
stations. The pre-sets are programmed as
follows:
Programming the pre-sets
Select the required waveband (FM1, FM2,
MW1, MW2 or LW).
Tune to the desired frequency using
either automatic or manual tuning.
Press and hold one of the pre-set buttons
until a bleep sounds. The frequency is
now stored (the display shows the
waveband and frequency or name of the
station to which you have tuned).
NOTE:Once the pre-sets have been
programmed, they will be retained by the
unit until they are re-programmed or until the
battery is disconnected.
Operating the pre-sets
Once the pre-set buttons have been
programmed, operation is simple; select the
desired waveband, then press the pre-set
button of your choice. 
						

							Auto-store
11
743ICE0104
AUTO-STORE
Auto-store enables you to rapidly tune and
store the strongest FM and MW radio signals
in a single operation. This facility is
particularly useful if you are in an unfamiliar
area and have little knowledge of local
transmitter frequencies.
Programming auto-store
Press and hold the appropriate waveband
selection button (3 or 4) until a bleep sounds
(the radio mutes and the display shows
either’FM AUTOSTORE’or’MW
AUTOSTORE’).
Auto-store scans the waveband to find the
six strongest frequencies and then stores
them on either the FM2 or MW2 pre-set
buttons in order of signal strength.
NOTE:Auto-store overwrites any stations
already stored on the FM2 or MW2 pre-set
buttons.
Radio play restores when the operation is
complete.
NOTE:If FM auto-store is programmed with
the traffic facility armed, then only stations
capable of providing traffic information are
stored.
NOTE:If auto-store is unable to find six
strong stations, the remaining pre-set
buttons remain blank.
Operating auto-store
To tune to one of the auto-store frequencies,
select FM2 or MW2, then press the pre-set
button of your choice; the frequency or radio
station name appears on the display.
NOTE:It is recommended that both traffic and
news information facilities are switched off
before the pre-set stations are stored and
before auto-store is programmed. 
						

							Radio Data System
12
RADIO DATA SYSTEM (RDS)
This radio is equipped with RDS (Radio Data
System). RDS is being introduced in
European countries and operates on the FM
waveband. The system enables the radio to
receive other information in addition to radio
signals, including:
the programme service name(this
enables the set to display the radio
station name instead of the frequency).
alternative frequenciesfor the FM radio
station being received (this enables the
set to automatically select the strongest
signal, thereby maintaining the best
possible reception).
a traffic or news information system(this
enables the set to give priority to traffic or
news information broadcasts over other
radio, tape or CD programmes).
an alarm announcement system(this
enables the set to give priority to
emergency information; eg. a very
serious accident or natural disaster).
EON(enhanced other networks) allows
traffic or news information from radio
stations other than the one to which the
radio is currently tuned, provided they are
all members of a linked EON network.Receiving RDS stations
The radio is automatically in the RDS mode
whenever the FM waveband is selected.
Whenever an RDS radio station is received,
the radio station name illuminates in the
display. The set constantly scans all
alternative frequencies on which that station
can be received, and automatically switches
to the strongest signal it can find.
This is particularly useful on long journeys
where the car travels through several
different transmitter areas which serve the
same radio station.
NOTE:This facility can be deactivated or
reactivated by your dealer.
NOTE:In some countries, not all FM radio
stations broadcast RDS. If a non-RDS station
is received the RDS features described
previously will not be available.
Local radio stations
Reception of most local radio stations is
intentionally limited to a comparatively small
area around the transmitter.
Once the limit of the reception range is
reached, it is unlikely that the RDS facility on
your radio will be able to locate an alternative
frequency for the local radio station being
received. Instead, RDS is able to
automatically locate, and tune to, the nearest
alternative local radio station.
NOTE:This facility can be deactivated or
reactivated by your dealer. 
						

							Traffic Information
13
9ICE0105
TRAFFIC INFORMATION
On the FM waveband, your radio is able to
broadcast traffic information from local radio
stations that are linked to the same network
as the station to which it is tuned.
Selecting traffic
BRIEFLY press the Traffic button (9) - the
TRAFFIC indicator illuminates in the
display.
Any available traffic information then
broadcasts automatically as and when it
occurs (even if you are listening to
cassette tapes or CDs).
During traffic announcements the display
flashes’TRAFFIC INFO’alternately with the
name of the radio station providing the
information.
If the radio is tuned to an FM station that is
not networked to a station that does provide
traffic information, the display flashes’NO
TRAFFIC’. In this case, either switch off
traffic information, or switch to an FM station
that does broadcast traffic information.
In remote areas, it may be impossible to find
a traffic information station. The radio
searches the waveband twice; if a station
cannot be found, the radio switches off
traffic and returns to the station to which it
was previously tuned.When traffic information is switched on,
occasional, and very brief, muting of the
radio may occur while the set searches for
traffic broadcasts. For this reason, it is
recommended that traffic information is
switched off when not needed.
Switching off traffic
To switch off traffic information, briefly press
the Traffic button (the TRAFFIC indicator
disappears from the display).
Unwanted Traffic information broadcasts can
be aborted by briefly pressing the Traffic
button.
Traffic during tape or CD play
When the radio is in the Traffic mode, CD or
tape play is interrupted by traffic information
broadcasts automatically as and when they
occur.
Volume for traffic and news announcements
The volume of traffic and news information
broadcasts can be set independently from
the volume required for other audio
functions, as follows:
Wait for a traffic or news announcement to
occur, then during the broadcast, adjust the
volume to the desired level (this is likely to
be greater than that required for normal
audio output). Once this volume has been
set, it will be memorised by the audio unit
and replicated automatically next time a
traffic or news announcement is broadcast.
Note that further adjustment to the volume
can be carried out during any subsequent
traffic or news announcement. 
						

							News Information
14
9ICE0105
NEWS INFORMATION
On the FM waveband, RDS radio stations can
network together to provide news
information broadcasts. Your radio is able to
identify these stations and can broadcast
news bulletins as and when they occur by
interrupting the current radio broadcast, tape
or CD.
Switching on news
Press and hold the News button (9) until
a bleep sounds - the NEWS indicator
illuminates in the display.
All available news bulletins are then
received automatically as and when they
occur (even if you are listening to
cassette tapes or CDs).
During news broadcasts the display flashes
’NEWS’alternately with the name of the radio
station providing the news information.
NOTE:If both Traffic and News information
are selected, the radio gives priority to which
ever broadcast commenced first - one
information source cannot interrupt another!Switching off news
To switch off News information, press and
hold the News button (9) for approximately 2
seconds (a bleep sounds and the NEWS
indicator disappears from the display).
Unwanted News broadcasts can be aborted
by BRIEFLY pressing the News button (do
not press and hold).
News during tape or CD play
With the radio in News information mode
(NEWS indicator illuminated), CD or tape
play is interrupted by news broadcasts
whenever they occur.
Emergency alarm announcement
Emergency announcements cannot be
activated or deactivated by the user. If an
emergency traffic or news announcement is
transmitted (’ALARM’appears in the
display), all other audio functions will be
overridden. 
						

							Digital Sound Processing
15
DIGITAL SOUND PROCESSING (DSP)
(if fitted)
To improve overall sound quality and the
ability of the audio system to negate the
effects of adverse road and travelling
conditions on audio reception, some vehicles
are fitted with DSP. In addition, DSP
provides’intelligent’interaction with other
vehicle equipment, such as the navigation
system and telephone.
Audio quality
Driver adjustable features
Press the audio selection button 6 times to
access the DPS menu. Rotate the volume
control to select the desired option:
’DSP OFF’- Select to cancel all DPS
features.
’DSP SPATIAL’- Select to optimise treble
and bass responses, adding width, height
and imaging to the standard audio signal,
to give a more dynamic output for all
occupants of the vehicle.
’DSP DRIVER’- Concentrates the field of
sound across the width of the vehicle in
the area between the driver and the
windscreen. Select when only the driver is
in the vehicle.
NOTE:After 5 seconds without further
adjustment, the option displayed is selected
and the display reverts to normal.
Automatic features
’Speed dependent volume and sound
equalisation’- The volume and sound
equalisation levels will automatically adjust to
compensate for road noise.
’Speed & volume dependent compression’-
The audio system takes into account road
speed and any quiet audio passages, to
improve volume and sound quality.
’Dynamic headroom management system’-
The audio system monitors both the input
and the output for the amplifier, thereby
optimising its performance to ensure
maximum output with minimal background
’noise’.Audio interaction
With the audio system switched on, the
digital amplifier is able to prioritise any
output to, or information for, the driver in
order of importance, whilst minimising any
inconvenience to other occupants.
Navigation messages
The audio system output to the front
speakers is muted and the navigation system
uses these speakers to relay messages to the
driver. Audio output to the rear speakers is
unaffected.
Telephone calls
The audio system output to the front
speakers is muted and the telephone call is
received through these speakers. Audio
output to the rear speakers is unaffected.
Navigation messages & telephone calls
If both a navigation message and a telephone
call are received at the same time, audio
system output to all speakers is muted. The
navigation message will be relayed to the
driver through the rear speakers, and the
telephine call will be received through the
front.
If the audio system is not turned on and both
a navigation message and a telephone call
are received at the same time, the
configuration will be as above, but the
volume levels will be as set independently in
the respective navigation and telephone
modes.
NOTE:When the navigation message or
phone call is complete, the audio output
reverts to its previous level
Emergency announcements
If the Radio Data System receives an
emergency announcement, all other audio
output is overridden - including the
navigation system and telephone (see’Radio
data system (RDS)’).’ALARM’appears in the
display for the duration of the
announcement. 
						

							Radio Reception
16
Distortion, interference and lack of signal
clarity, are often attributed to a fault in the
radio - this is rarely the case.
Problems of this kind are usually caused by
phenomena such as atmospheric conditions,
signal strength, hilly terrain, tall buildings,
bridges and even electrical interference from
power lines.
Please remember:A car radio receives
signals while the vehicle is in motion (unlike
a domestic set) - constantly changing
direction and moving away from, or nearer
to, the transmitter whilst negotiating terrain
with widely differing reception
characteristics. Some interference is to be
expected from time to time.
FM transmitters can only broadcast over a
limited range and good, clear signals will
only be received in the immediate area of the
transmitter. When travelling, it may be
necessary to re-tune the radio from time to
time, to offset the effects of moving from
one transmitter area to another. While RDSautomatic retuning eases this problem, some
manual retuning may still be needed
(especially for local stations) in areas of weak
reception.
The broadcast range for good stereo
reception (usually within a 50 to 65 km
radius of the transmitter) is noticeably less
than it is for mono.
FM Signals (like light waves) travel in a
straight line, so large obstacles, such as tall
buildings, can shield the car from the signal
causing distortion or loss of reception
(known as dead spots).
Distortion can also occur if FM signals
received directly from the transmitter mix
with signals which have been reflected by
obstructions such as mountains, hills and tall
buildings (this is known as multi-path
distortion).

							Care of Cassette Player and Tapes
17 ICE 0054
Use only good quality tapes with a maximum
capacity of ninety minutes (C90). Check that
both spools rotate freely and remove any
loose turns at the start of the tape by winding
one spool with a pen or pencil.
Cassette player
In use, the tape head accumulates dust and
contamination, gradually impairing sound
reproduction and, in extreme cases, reducing
volume too. To combat contamination, clean
the tape head periodically (after
approximately every 20 hours playing time)
by passing a wet type cleaning cassette
through the player.
NOTE:Because your cassette player is fitted
with auto reverse, the cleaning cassette must
be played in both directions.
The tape will require more frequent cleaning
in winter, as contamination is greater in
conditions of low temperature and increased
humidity. However, the use of good quality
tapes keeps the build up to a minimum.Cassette tapes
Always store cassettes in their boxes
when not in use.
Never leave cassettes in the vehicle
during extremes of temperature. In
particular, do not leave tapes in direct
sunlight as they may warp and become
unuseable, or jam the tape player
mechanism.
Fast forward, or rewind tapes every 8 to
10 plays to prevent them from becoming
too tightly wound.
Ensure that labels attached to the cassette
are glued firmly in place.
DO NOT leave tapes in the cassette player
for more than a few hours in very cold or
humid conditions - the oxides on the tape
surface may contaminate the cassette
player mechanism.
NOTE:After continuous playing, cassettes
may become hot to touch. This is normal
and will not harm good quality tape.
