Safety notes
G
Risk of accident
Observe the legal requirements of the country
in which you are currently driving regarding
operating mobile communications equipment
in a vehicle.
If it is permitted by law to operate communi-
cations equipment while the vehicle is in
motion, you may only do so when the traffic
situation allows. Otherwise, you could be dis-
tracted from the traffic conditions, cause an
accident and injure yourself and others.
Two-way radios and fax equipment used with-
out low-reflection exterior aerials can inter-
fere with the vehicle's electronics and,
thereby, jeopardise the operating safety of
the vehicle and your safety. Therefore, you
must only use this equipment if it is correctly
connected to a separate, reflection-free, exte-
rior aerial. G
Risk of accident
For reasons of safety, only use hands-free
mode if you use the telephone when driving.
If you use hands-free mode to make a call, you
must continue to drive carefully, close all the
windows and prevent any disruptive noises. General notes
Bluetooth ®

face telephony when used with a Bluetooth ®
-
capable mobile phone. With suitable mobile
