TV mode*Explanation of the technical terms“Terrestrial television” or DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestric)
With DVB-T, digital television signals are transmitted terrestrially (earthbound) and
can also be received via an aerial. DVB-T therefore offers mobile reception of high
quality without the need of a fixed aerial connection. DVB-T is therefore described
as “Terrestrial television”.
Advantages of DVB-T
In addition to a significant gain in quality, the transmitter capacity of a television
channel can be realised more effectivel y through digital transmitter technology
rather than analog signals. The greater da ta rate enables several programs of one
television channel to be transmitted bund led in one data flow (so called “Multi-
plex”). Part of the transmitter capacity can also be used for additional services, e.g.
electronic program guides or radio.
“Hybrid tuner” for analog and digital reception
The supply of DVB-T has up to now been restricted to densely populated regions,
so that an analog television receiver in the vehicle is still a prerequisite. It is for this
reason that a Hybrid tuner was developed for the unit, which consists of a
common analog TV receiver and a DVB-T receiver.
Display of analog and digital TV stations
The TV stations, which can be received, are indicated in the display of the combina-
tion instrument and when switching over and calling up the TV menus on the
screen. Analog and digital TV stations are displayed differently and are marked
⇒ page 34, “Displays in TV mode” on the touch-screen with “ Analog” or “DVB-
T ”.
OverviewThe TV picture will only be displaye d when the vehicle is stationary. The
touch-screen is switched off while driving, but the sound can still be
heard.
Starting TV mode
– Press the selector key to switch to the main MEDIA menu. The
last used media source will continue to play.
– Press the touch-screen in the Video DVD menu to open the Video DVD
menu.
– Press the function key to start the TV mode. The last set TV channel will be displayed in the pre-set aspect ratio in full picture mode.
Masking and unmasking the TV menu
– Briefly press the touch-screen when in the TV mode to insert ⇒fig. 14

38Selector key NAV (Navigation)OverviewSafety information regarding the use of the navigation systemThe route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or
change the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommendations
can only then be re-transmitted.
Incomplete navigation data
The navigation system cannot receive any da ta from GPS satellites if you drive for
longer periods under thick forest canopy or when your vehicle is in a garage, under-
pass or tunnel. In this case, th e navigation system orientates itself solely with the
help of the vehicle sensors.
In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and stored as such on the navigation
DVD, the navigation system will try to provide guidance to the destination. Please
note that under these circumstances the guidance to the destination may not be
completely correct if, for example, one-wa y streets and road categories (motorway,
country road etc.) are not at all or only partially included in the navigation data
used.
WARNING
Always concentrate fully on your drivin g. Inattention by the driver can lead
to accidents and injuries.•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted or loose your concentration, pay
attention to the traffic situation and do not carry out settings or use the radio
navigation system.
•
Only use the radio navigation system if road, weather and traffic situa-
tions permit this and you are not distracted.
•
The various volume settings must be selected in such a way that audible
signals from the outside, such as e.g. a Martins horn from police cars and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.
WARNING
Please observe the legal requirements for road traffic when following the
driving recommendations provided by your radio navigation system.•
The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situa-
tions, e.g. due to road works or out of date navigation data. In such a case,
always observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommenda-
tions.
•
Traffic signs and traffice regulations al ways have priority over the driving
recommendations provided by the navigation system.
•
Route guidance is subject to constant changes, particularly to informa-
tion relating to one-way streets, pedestrian zones etc. stored on the naviga-
tion DVD. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking
and stopping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions
is not included in the radio navigation system.
•
Adjust your speed to suit weather, road and traffic conditions. Do not
allow the navigation system to make yu drive faster in fog – risk of
accident!
Navigation data and the navigation DVDStoring navigation data in the unit
– Push a navigation DVD with as far as possible into the CD/DVD case
with the written side facing up until it is automatically drawn in. The
unit will compare the data on the navigation DVD with the data in the
navigation system memory. No message will appear if the data in the
navigation system memory of the unit is identical to the data on the
navigation DVD.
– Press the function key , to find out that the storing process has
been completed.

When driving to a tour plan, route guidan ce will start automatically to the next
destination after reaching a stopover dest ination. If a stopover destination cannot be reached exactly, it must be deleted from
the tour plan before route guidance can
continue to the next destinat ion. If route guidance to the next destination has been
started manually, only this destination wi ll be approached and all further destina-
tions of the tour plan are ignored.
Note
•
If you have missed a turn-off during route guidance and there is no other
opportunity to turn at that moment, cont inue driving until the navigation system
offers you an alternative route.
•
The quality of the messages transmitte d by the unit depends on the available
navigation data and, during traffic problems, also on the available traffic reports.
The radio stations broadcasting the traffic reports are responsible for the content
and quality of the available traffic reports.

After input of relevant traffic information for your route you will be advised of the
change in the current route guidance by means of an acoustic message. You will
automatically be guided around announced traffic jams or blocked roads, if this
saves time. Such announcements will take place if a
traffic problem affects the original route
calculation, the traffic problem has been solved and the navigation system can see
only one possibility of driving the actually most advantagous route.
Requirements for a dynamic route guidance
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data service for continuous trans-
mission of traffic information.
The unit has a continuous background of TMC traffic reports providing a TMC
station at the current location can be received.
The quality of the transmitted traffic reports depends on the broadcast editing
carried out by the radio station. The rece ption of the TMC traffic reports cannot be
switched on or off.
The station you are listening to does not have to be a TMC station.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and displayed by the unit if the navigation
data for the currently driven area is stored in the unit memory or can be called up
via an inserted navigation DVD.
The current TMC traffic reports can be di splayed by pressing the selector key
.
Note
•
There may not be any advantantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of
the TMC traffic reports, the dive rsion is also heavily congested.
•
You can manually block the information for the route in front of you if a traffic
problem ahead has not yet been included in the TMC traffic reports ⇒page 58.
