microphone, which is fitted in the vicinity of the front interior lights.•The system should only be operated by the driver, since the hands-free 
microphone is directed towards the driver.WARNING
•Please direct your full attention to the road at all times! As the driver, 
you bear the responsibility for road safety. Therefore, you should only use 
the functions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the vehicle 
in all situations.•The speech control system must not be used in cases of emergency, 
since the voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed 
or delayed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers 
manually.
Phone book for the speech control system
Name tags are stored in the phone book for the speech 
control system.General notes
The phone book for the speech control system has 50 memory positions. You 
can use it independently of the mobile phone. The name tags are stored in 
the phone book for the speech control system.
Functions
The phone book for the speech control system gives you various options:•Dialling phone numbers stored previously  ⇒page 81•Recording a name in the speech control phone book for a phone book 
entry in the on-board phone system ⇒ page 80
•Storing name tags (consisting of a name and number) in the phone book 
for the speech control system  ⇒page 81•Playing the phone book through the speech control system  ⇒page 82
Once you have saved name tags in the phone book for the speech control 
system, you can select them via the speech control system.
Entering data
You should choose spoken names that can be identified clearly by the speech 
control system.
Numbers from  ZERO to NINE are recognised when you enter a telephone 
number. The telephone number can be specified all at once, in blocks of 
digits (separated by a brief pause), or as single digits. After each block of 
digits specified (separated by a brief pause) the system will repeat the digits. 
The system does not recognise number combinations (e.g. "twenty-three") 
but separate figures ( TWO, THREE ). Say the numbers clearly so that the 
system can recognise them easily.

The number is too long . A Plus (+) can also be placed ahead of the number.
If the system does not recognise a phone book entry, you can play back the 
name tags (voice entries) on the speech control system by saying the 
command  PLAY PHONE BOOK  ⇒ page 82. Press the talk button as a name is 
being read to select the entry.

Should the system say  The function is not possible , please check the status 
of the speech control system:•Is the ignition switched on?•Is the mobile phone connected to the mobile phone interface via Blue-
tooth?•Is the mobile phone inserted in the mobile phone adapter?•Is the mobile phone switched on and the PIN entered?

WARNING
•Today's driving conditions require the full attention of drivers. Please 
see  ⇒page 6, “Notes on road safety”.•Observe traffic regulations when driving. The route calculated by the 
navigation system is a recommendation of how best to reach a destination. 
If driving instructions run contrary to traffic laws, the traffic laws always 
take precedence. Pay attention to traffic lights, no-stopping signs, lane 
change restrictions, one-way streets, etc.Caution
The volume of the sound system should be set at a level that enables you to 
hear acoustic signals from outside, such as police and fire brigade sirens. 
Failure to do so may cause an accident.
IntroductionIntroductionThe navigation system makes time-consuming map reading superfluous.
During route guidance you receive information on the dash panel display 
⇒ page 86, fig. 93  regarding vehicle position, turn-off information (direction 
and distance to turn-off) and estimated arrival time. Additionally, you receive 
spoken navigation information  ⇒page 87.
There are two possibilities for route guidance:•Route without stopover (single destination mode)•Route with stopovers (route plan)
Route without stopover (single destination mode)
In the single destination mode you can drive directly to a destination 
⇒ page 91.
Route with stopovers (route plan)
In the route with stopover mode ( ⇒page 92) you can enter up to six stopo-
vers and a final destination.
For example, when travelling you can save time by finding the nearest filling 
station in unfamiliar towns. You can also make a stopover to eat in a restau-
rant or visit a tourist attraction.

NoteYou do not receive any information about the meaning of road signs!How does the navigation system work?
The navigation system works with the help of satellites (GPS).Route information and satellite signals are used to pinpoint the current 
vehicle position. GPS satellites send the necessary signals required by the 
system (GPS stands for “Global Positioning System”).
The information is transmitted to the navigation system and compared with 
the information stored in the navigation CD map database. This way, the 
route guidance can be accurately calculated.
The navigation CD must be in the CD drive to calculate the route  ⇒page 24. 
Once the calculation is complete, you can remove the navigation CD and play 
audio or MP3 CDs in the internal drive unit. The data required for navigation 
is stored in the navigation system. Where the navigation system requires 
more data (e.g. if the route is modified), the system will ask you to insert the 
navigation CD.
Navigation operations are limited if the navigation CD is not inserted. Some 
functions, such as route modification, are “greyed out” and cannot be 
selected.
The navigation system improves the route during the trip. The route initially 
calculated may differ to the route actually taken.
The navigation instructions can be given in 9 languages (English, German, 
Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish and Czech). The 
language can be selected using the  menu language function in the setup 
menu  ⇒page 116.
Note
•Snow or other obstructions on the GPS aerial or interference caused by 
trees or large buildings could affect the reception of the satellite signals and 
make positioning difficult. GPS reception can also be adversely affected by 
the deactivation or malfunction of several satellites.•Street and town names can change, therefore the names stored on the CD 
can in some cases be different from the names that have since been changed.•You can obtain navigation CDs from your dealer. Your dealer will also be 
able to provide information on updates which are available for the CDs.Navigation route guidanceRoute guidance assistance is given both visually and acoustically:•by voice guidance•by the display in the dash panel  ⇒fig. 93
