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:  
on the ignition and the radio.  
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-  
ond.  
Select a station and press DIS for  
about 1 second (BEEP).

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.  
Warning  
Programming the TIM standby

You can programme two TIM times (TIMER  
1 and TIMER 2).  
If you have installed a motor antenna, then  
please read the relevant warning note at the

For example, TIMER 1 could be the time  
when leaving home in the morning, TIMER  
2 the time when driving home after work.  
The TIM times to be programmed should  
correspond to the approximate times of de-  
parture. The radio will then record the traffic  
information broadcast for 90 minutes before

three hours.
