You are not permitted to disassemble, modify or repair the car radio. Never open the case of the car radio; it does not contain any serviceable parts! If the case is open, there is a risk of fatality due to electric shock.

Do not give your car radio and especially the accessories to children. Never let your children use electrical devices without supervision. Children are not always able to recognise potential hazards. Also keep plastic packaging away from children. There is a danger of suffocation.

The car radio and the accompanying components must not be exposed to dripping or sprayed water. Make sure that no containers filled with liquid, such as bottles or cups, are placed in the vicinity of the device.

Make sure that the display is not subjected to any knocks. This can damage the display. Please familiarise yourself with the different functions of your device before you begin driving. Excessively high volumes canpose a risk for you and other road users. Therefore, always set the volume at such a level that ambient noises (horns, sirens etc) can still be heard.

Multimedia CDs also contain recordings of files other than audio files. If you play such a CD despite the warning information, it may result in noise at a volume that endangers traffic. Furthermore, damage may be caused to the power amplifier and speakers.

Do not use the car radio at an excessive volume. This poses a risk to your hearing.

Please make any adjustments to the settings only when your vehicle is parked as your concentration couldotherwise be adversely affected.

12.4 RDS RDS is an information system whose signals are additionally broadcast by most FM stations. With RDS programmes, the name of the programme appears as an abbreviation on the display. Further information, such as frequency, time and programme type (PTY) may be faded in. An RDS programme will be broadcast by several stations on different frequencies (alternative frequencies). If an RDS programme has been selected, the device automatically switches to the alternative frequency that can be received most clearly, as long as that is available and the AF function (section 13.6) has been turned on. In order to access the RDS information, repeatedly press the “DIS/REC” button . The time, programme type (PTY) and frequency will appear in sequence on the display.

12.5 Traffic Announcement (“TA”, Traffic Programme “TP”) To activate the traffic announcement program, press the “TA/TP” button briefly. The message “TA” will appear on the display and readiness for announcements is turned on. To deactivate traffic announcements, press the “TA/TP” button again. The message “TA” disappears and readiness for announcements has been switched off. Note: If the selected station is not a traffic broadcast station, the device automatically starts to scan for the next traffic broadcaststation.

If “TA” is turned on, the CD, SD-MMC, USB and AUX-IN operation is interrupted for a traffic announcement and will be continued afterwards. For the duration of the traffic alert, "TRAFFIC” will appear on the display. During AUX-IN operation, the current track will not stop but continue playing. To stop the device connected via AUX-IN, please consult the manual of the respective manufacturer of the device.

If you only want to hear traffic announcements, turn on the announcement function with the “TA” button and turn the volume to “VOL 0” with the volume control dial. The device will automatically implement increased volume for traffic announcements.

TA volume can be individually adjusted under the volume item “TAVOL”.

95

English

12.6 Alternative frequencies (“AF”) To activate the “AF” function, briefly press the “AF/REG” button . The message “AF” appears and the function is turned on. To turn off the “AF” function, briefly press the “AF/REG” button . The message “AF” disappears and the function is deactivated. Note: The “AF” function is only displayed for broadcast stations that broadcast an “AF” signal. The “AF” message flashes when the “AF” function is activated but no “AF” signal is available.

If an RDS (radio data system) station is being received that is broadcast by several broadcast stations with different frequencies, the device automatically switches to the frequency that can be received most clearly. The device is supplied with the “AF” function activated.

In an area with poor reception, attempts to change between alternative frequencies can be heard as disruptive pauses. In such an event, the “AF” function can be turned off.

Note:Radio reception conditions In the FM wave band, there may be changes in reception conditions during the drive. Mountains, buildings or bridges can adversely affect reception. This applies especially if the distance to the station is great. Enhanced Other Networks (EON) The EON function (see page 45) is an additional RDS service. If the current programme does not offer any traffic announcements, EON automatically switches to the traffic announcements on another programme. After the end of the announcement, the device switches back to the previously heard station. TA has to be activated for this.

96

12.7 Regional programmes (“REG”) Some radio stations divide their programmes into regional stations with different content at specific times. If reception is deteriorating, the “REG” function prevents the car radio from changing to alternative frequencies that have different programmecontents. To turn the “REG” function on or off, keep the “AF/REG” button pressed until "REG-ON" or "REG-OFF" appears in the display.

12.8 Programme type (PTY) By searching according to programme type, you considerably simplify your choice of radio station. You can search according to various programme types. In order to start the search, hold down the PTY button on the operating panel for approximately 2 seconds. The current programme type will appear on the display panel. Now use the volume control to select your desired programme type. Confirm your choice of programme type by pressing the PTY button again. The search now starts automatically. In the display panel, you will see PTY and the frequencies being cycled through. To cancel the search, press thePTY button . If a suitable channel is found, the search stops automatically.

English

13 CD Mode The SilverCrest CRB-532 Bluetooth car radio supports the formats CD-Audio; CD-R; CD-RW and MP3/WMA/OGG-CD. Note: Conditional on the quality differences of the media as well the characteristics of the recording, it may happen that some individually recorded CDs are unable to be read. Such events do not constitute a malfunction of the device.

Audio CDs (CD-R and CD-RW) that are recorded individually have to be finalised at the end of the burning process. Note that the file names of the audio tracks have to correspond to ISO-9660 standard. During the playback of MP3 CDs, individual tracks may be skipped or not played back correctly. This may be due to the respective disc configuration, the decoder software, or the hardware that was used for the recording.

Copy-protected CDs do not correspond to the specifications of audio CDs (CD-DA), do not carry the respective logo, and can therefore cause playback errors.

13.1 Selecting a CD as a programme source To play a CD, turn on the device with the “PWR/MUTE” button . If the device was turned off during CD operation, playback begins at the track heard before turning off the device. If the device is set to another programme source, press the “MODE” button until you get to the CD function. The display will indicate the message “TOC READ”. Note:The programme source “CD” can only be selected through the “MODE” button if there is a CD in the CD slot.

98

13.2 Inserting / ejecting a CD To insert a CD, press the button on the device. Then the operating panel automatically flips down and uncovers the CD insertion slot. Before you insert a CD, press the button to make sure that no other CD has already been inserted. To insert the CD, slide it into the CD slot with the printed side up. It will automatically be drawn inside. Flip the front panel back up and let it snap into place. The message “TOC READ” will be indicated on the display. Then the message “001" will appear, followed by the time display of the track, which thus shows that the first track on the CD is now being played back. To eject the CD, press the unlocking button again. The front panel flips down and you can remove the ejected CD after pressing the button .

Caution: Only standard CD formats may be inserted into the CD insertion slot (Ø 12cm). Make sure that no foreign objects enter the CD slot.

Note:Never use force when inserting the CD; this could damage the device as well as the CD. Never use force to try to prevent the device from pulling in a CD. If necessary, eject the CD again.

16.5 Bluetooth® telephone function A Bluetooth module is integrated into the Silvercrest CRB-532 radio that can be used for telephone conversations. Here the Bluetooth module functions as a hands-free conversation device via a Bluetooth connection with your mobile phone. Your phone may therefore comfortably remain in the glove compartment, handbag or jacket pocket, while you keep your hands free for driving. With the Bluetooth module, you can accept calls, reject calls and make calls. Devices with the Bluetooth versions V1.2 and V2.0 of nearly all well-known manufacturers are supported.

Prerequisites To make phone calls with the Bluetooth module, your mobile phone has to support voice dial and Bluetooth. The Bluetooth microphone provided as part of the kit also has to be installed correctly and be connected to the device. The microphone should be installed as close as possible to the person making the phone calls in order to minimise potential disruptive noises. If necessary, please consult a specialist for the correct connection and the installation of the microphone. In the illustration at the side of this page, you can see an example of a microphone installation in the upper area of the car’s A column.

This means that a wireless connection is established between the devices. The range is approximately 10 meters. The Bluetooth function of the device is available immediately after turning this device on and is indicated through the flashing blue BTI-LED .

Pairing the devices Turn on the Silvercrest CRB-532 Bluetooth radio. Now activate the Bluetooth function of your mobile phone (please obtain exact information about this from the user manual of your mobile phone) and search for a Bluetooth device. As soon as the search is finished, your mobile phone will report a new device with the label “CRB-532”. Choose this device and enter “0000” as the password. Now the mobile phone is connected and paired with the Silvercrest CRB-532 Bluetooth radio. The pairing has the result that you do not have to enter the password every time in the future.

Connecting radio and mobile phone If the option “visible to everyone” is activated on your mobile phone, the Bluetooth car radio CRB-532 (when switched on) automatically connects with your mobile phone as soon as it is in the vicinity. If the option “hidden” is activated on your mobile phone, a manual pairing order is required for the mobile phone (please check the user manual of your mobile phone for exact information about this). If the telephone and device are connected to each other through Bluetooth, the BTI-LED remains continuously illuminated.
