WARNINGS
The towing eyes at the front and rear
of the vehicle are designed for
on-road recovery only. If they are
used for any purpose other than those
indicated, it may result in vehicle damage and
serious injury.
Never use the towing eyes to tow a
trailer, caravan etc. Doing so may
result in vehicle damage and serious
injury.
CAUTION
Only use the lashing points indicated, or
over-tyre tie-downs, to secure the
vehicle to the transporter or trailer. Use of any
other position (e.g. lower control arms) may
result in damage to the vehicle.

TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
The recommended method for
recovery/transportation of the vehicle, is on a
transporter or trailer de signed for that purpose.
Ensure that transporta tion is carried out by
suitably qualified persons , and that the vehicle
is secured correctly.
If the vehicle is being tr ansported on a trailer or
vehicle flat-bed transporter, the parking brake
must be applied, the wheels are chocked and
the Emergency Park Re lease (EPR) operated,
to ensure that the transmission remains in N
and does not automatically select P.
Emergency Park Release (EPR)
When recovering your vehicle, it is essential
that the EPR is operated. EPR prevents the
transmission from automatically selecting P,
ensuring that the transmission remains in
neutral ( N). EPR is operated by a lever located
behind a trim panel in the cubby box. Before
activating the EPR, select P, apply the parking
brake and turn the ignition off. 1.
Open the twin cup holder lid.
2. Open the cubby box lid.
3. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, lever the
trim panel upwards (at the point indicated)
to release and remove.

Navigation system
Digitised area
Ensure that you are using the latest version of
the correct DVD for your country.
Note: Your Dealer/Authorised Repairer will
have details of how to order DVD updates.
The navigation DVD provided, contains a
digitised street map. Larger cities and
boroughs are completely covered. The regional
and unclassified roads or access roads and the
town centre for smaller towns and boroughs
are included.
One way streets, pedestrian zones, turn bans
and other traffic regula tions are taken into
account as far as pos sible. There may be
discrepancies between the data on the
navigation DVD and the actual local situation,
due to temporary or permanent changes to
road systems and their traffic regulations.
If the vehicle battery ha s been disconnected, or
if the vehicle has been transported to a new
location on another vehicle (e.g. by trailer or
train), the navigation system may require
several minutes to iden tify the new position.
Errors in vehicle position
Under certain driving condi tions, it is possible
that the vehicle pos ition shown may be
incorrect. Some examples are shown below:
• Negotiating circular ramps in car parks.
• Elevated roads in proximity to other roads.
• Where two roads run parallel to each other.
• Driving on steep roads.
• When the vehicle is transported by ferry or
train.
• After the tyres have been replaced.
• When using snow chains.
• After the vehicle has been rotated on a
turntable.
• After vehicle battery removal or supply
fuse failure.
Reception of GPS signals
GPS signals are high ly directional and
reception may occasiona lly be interrupted.
Some examples of situations likely to cause
problems are shown below:
• Inside buildings
• Forest roads between mountains
• Between tall buildings
• Roads under cliffs.
The vehicle’s direction and speed sensors will
minimise any adverse effect on the operation of
the navigation system, if this should occur.
Normal operation will resume once the
obstruction has been passed.

CALIBRATION
If the vehicle has been moved, for example, by
rail or trailer, the vehi cle position/direction may
need to be calibrated. The map showing the heading adjustment
arrows is displayed. Adjust the heading by
touching and using th
e arrows until the
navigation symbol shows the correct
alignment. Touch OK to confirm the new
heading.
