GWarning!
In order to avoid distraction which could
lead to an accident, the driver should enter
system settings with the vehicle at a
standstill and operate the system only when
road and traffic conditions permit. Always
pay full attention to traffic conditions
first before operating system controls
while driving.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet
(approximately 14 m) every second.
GWarning!
Always select a volume that allows you to
still hear ambient sound in your immediate
vicinity (e.g. horns, emergency rescue
vehicles, police vehicles, etc.). You could
otherwise cause an accident.
GWarning!
If you wish to have a radio other than an
original smart radio fitted in your
vehicle, please always have the necessary
work performed at an authorized smart
center.
This is particularly important if your
vehicle is fitted with a radio
preinstallation. Improper connection can
result in the failure of important vehicle
functions, thereby endangering the
operating safety of your vehicle and thus
your own safety and that of other people.
