Default Stereo problems

I bought an A4 today and I can't get the stereo system(concert radio/BOSE system to function correctly. 'Telefon' constantly appears and Radio/ CD control are impossible!
HELP!
I think it's something to do with prior installation of a mobile/handsfree system?
How can I disable its apparent search for a
'telefon, thus gaining full control of the radio and CD player?
Any ideas much appreciated.

Default if they had a handsfree kit installed and the removed it, they may have just cut the wire in the

back of the radio that goes to the Radio mute function. If they did just cut it and left wire only then the radio will do as your saying.
