Note:  
Use only standard circular CDs measuring  
12 cm in diameter!  
CDs measuring 8 cm in diameter or CDs in  
different shapes such as a butterfly or beer  
mug are not suitable for playback using this  
equipment.  
This is very likely to result in the destruction  
of the CD or the CD drive.  
We assume no liability for damage to the  
equipment caused by playing unsuitable  
CDs.  
The CD will be ejected.  
If you leave the reception area for the traffic  
information station you have tuned into while  
you are listening to a CD, the system will  
automatically start searching for a new TA  
station.  
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.  
To protect the CD mechanism, do not im-

ejection of the disc in any way.  
If the CD is not removed from the drive within  
approximately 30 seconds, it will be re-  
inserted automatically.

DSA – Digital Sound Adjustment  
Selecting a 12 or 24-hour mode  
Use DSA to activate and adjust the equaliz-  
er functions and to perform DNC (dynamic  
noise covering). This allows you to adjust  
the sound of your car hi-fi system ideally to  
the listening conditions in the interior of your  
car.  
You can choose whether the time is dis-  
played in a 12 or 24-hour mode.  
If necessary, refer to the section on “DSC  
programming - CLK, MODE”.  
Press DSA and EQ one after the other.  
Synchronisation  
An overview of the equalizer  
functions  
To improve the accuracy of the internal  
clock, it can be synchronised on a regular  
basis. This is only possible when the time is  
received via an RDS-CT signal and the au-  
tomatic synchronisation feature is switched  
on (default setting).  
In-car hi-fi sound is affected by such things  
as the car interior (cushioning, windows),  
position of the speakers, etc.  
You can use the integrated equalizer to store  
three different equalizer settings each for the  
right and left channel (EQ1 - EQ3).  
If the RDS-CT signal is not available, the  
audio system will attempt to receive the  
DCF-77 time signal (atomic clock) to cor-  
rect the time the next time it is switched off.  
The setting selected last will appear in the  
top line of the display.  
Seven frequency bands can be adjusted per  
channel.  
“EQ1”, “EQ2”, “EQ3” or  
“ROCK”, “POP”, “JAZZ”, “CLASSIC”,  
“VOCAL”.  
These settings can be made automatically  
using the hi-fi self-adjustment feature or  
manually.  
The display will indicate “CLK Sync” while it  
is synchronising the time.  
If you would like to switch off the synchroni-  
sation feature, refer to “DSC programming -  
CLK, SYNC”.  
The DOT display will indicate the frequency  
band settings for the left or right channel for  
this equalizer setting.  
The automatic settings can also be adjust-  
ed manually.  
The “EQ1 - EQ3” settings can be selected  
automatically with the hi-fi self-adjustment  
feature and/or set manually. If necessary,  
refer to the section on “Self-adjusting equal-  
izer” or “Manual equalizer adjustment”.  
In addition, there are five pre-set equalizer  
settings which cannot be altered.  
Activating the equalizer settings  
You can activate the equalizer settings in  
the DSA menu.  
The settings for “Rock to Vocal” are fixed  
values which cannot be adjusted.

Amplifier  
In RDS, EON makes it possible to exchange  
station information within a station network.  
Traffic information, for example, can be for-  
warded automatically from a traffic informa-  
tion station to a station which does not  
broadcast traffic information in the same  
network. After the traffic announcement has  
been put through, the radio switches back  
to the original station.  
In RDS this function ensures that the radio  
always tunes into the frequency with the best  
reception for the station.
