Navigation system
General information
With the help of satellites, the navigation sys-
tem is able to ascertain the precise position of
the vehicle and guide you reliably to any desti-
nation you enter.
The navigation data is st ored in the vehicle and
can be updated using navigation DVDs.
Enter data only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary, and always give priority to the
applicable traffic regulati ons in the event of any
contradiction between traffic and road condi-
tions and the instructions issued by the naviga-
tion system. Failure to ta ke to this precaution
can place you in violation of the law and put
vehicle occupants and other road users in
danger. <
