Displaying mute status in the TV screen
If the mute status is set, a Mute symbol appears in the top right of the display.
It is necessary for the mute status to be transmitted to the TV tuner (A2/42) with a newly generated command so that the mute status can be displayed on the TV screen.
The setting which was performed last before switching off the ignition, is adopted when the ignition is switched on again.
On model 203 as from 1.7.02 the switch-off threshold for TV mode is reduced from a speed of 8 km/h to 6 km/h.
