- Tuning by station search
- Tuning by station search on multifunction steering wheel
- Tuning by "Autostore" memory
- Tuning by "Scan" search (the stations of a waveband are played for 8 seconds)
- Tuning by means of manual adjustment
- Tuning by manual frequency input (via the 12-key panel of the radio and navigation unit)

Function sequence for display information
As well as stations and transmission frequencies, the following radio functionality appears on the display of the radio and navigation unit:
- Noise suppression
- Selection of RDS stations with a strong signal
- RDS information

RDS function requirements (regional operation)
- "Radio data system" function is activated.
- A "Radio Data System" station is set.

RDS function sequence (regional operation)
In addition to the radio program, many radio stations (e.g. FM) transmit additional inaudible digital information such as station name, type of programs (e.g. pop, culture, etc.) and traffic radio recognition. This information is evaluated by the radio and navigation unit and shown on the display.

CD player mode function sequence
Audio CDs can be played using the radio and navigation unit or using the CD player with changer (in glove compartment) (A2/6) (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer). The CD player with changer has a magazine for 6 CDs. The magazine is loaded centrally via an insertion slot. The system is operated using the keypad at the radio and navigation unit.

Only 12 cm CDs may be inserted into the magazine of the CD player with changer.

CD player operation consists of the following subfunctions:
- Function sequence, transfer of control and audio signals
- Function sequence, playback of standard audio CDs
- Function sequence, playback of audio CDs in MP3 format
- Function sequence, assigning a title to an audio CD

Function sequence, transfer of control and audio signals
A distinction must be made between the following cases:
- Function sequence, transfer of control and audio signals, except code (819) 6-disk CD changer
- Function sequence, transfer of control signals, with code (819) 6-disk CD changer
- Function sequence, transfer of audio signals, with code (819) 6-disk CD changer

Function sequence, transfer of control and audio signal, except code (819) 6-disk CD changer
The control and audio signals are processed internally in the radio and navigation unit.

Function sequence, transfer of control signals, with code (819) 6- disk CD changer
The control signals are transferred via the following route:
- Radio and navigation unit
- MOST
- CD player with changer

Function sequence, transfer of audio signals, with code (819) 6-disk CD changer
The audio signals are transferred via the following route:
- CD player with changer
- MOST
- Radio and navigation unit

Function requirements, playback of standard audio CDs
- Audio CD in CD drive of radio and navigation unit or magazine with at least one audio CD in the insertion slot of the CD player with changer (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer)

Function sequence, playback of standard audio CDs
The operation of the CD player with changer (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) or the CD drive in the radio and navigation unit is initiated in the "audio" menu by selecting the relevant function key. The following functions are available to the user:
- Select audio CD insertion slot in magazine (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer)
- Select audio CD (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer)
- Track selection
- "Search forwards" and "Search backwards"
- Current playback time of track or audio CD
- Programming function

When the end of the audio CD is reached, the CD drive in the radio and navigation unit stops playing, whereas the CD player with changer (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) switches to the 1st track of the next available audio CD. The following functions are possible:
- Skip track: the music tracks are played for t = 8 seconds. At the end of the audio CD that is being played, the CD player with changer (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) automatically switches to the mode last set.
- Random function - all tracks of an audio CD are played back according to the random principle. Once every track has been played, the next audio CD is loaded automatically (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) and the random function continues. The random function is repeated until it is deactivated.
- Repeat function: either one track or all tracks of an audio CD are repeated. It is also possible to repeat all tracks of the audio CDs in the magazine (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer).

The following possibilities are available in the menu "Adjustments":
- Normal track function
- Repeat track
- Repeat audio CD
- Select a track sequence

The audio signals that are generated internally in the radio and navigation system or (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) transferred to the radio and navigation system are output using the same method as radio signals: except code (810) Sound system direct to the relevant speakers, with code (810) Sound system via MOST to the sound system amplifier and from there to the relevant speakers via direct lines.

Function sequence, playback of audio CDs in MP3 format
The designation "MP3" is an abbreviation for MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3 and describes an audio compression standard that permits digital music signals to be compressed to approx. 8 % of the original data quantity. This is done with almost no audible difference to the original signal (audio CD). As well as conventional audio CDs, audio CDs in MP3 format can also be played in the CD drive in the radio and navigation unit and (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) in the CD player with changer. While doing so, a conventional audio CD is emulated (simulated).

Function sequence, assigning a title to an audio CD
Each audio CD contains a permanently stored table of contents (TOC record). As a result, after a one-time user allocation of a title, it is possible to identify this CD title automatically, even if (with code (819) 6-disk CD changer) the audio CD is inserted into a different magazine. The table of contents (TOC record) also contains information on the number of titles on an audio CD and the total audio CD playing time.
