● Safety notes ⇒ page 6
● Unit overview ⇒ page 8
● Multi-function steering wheel for changing track or station ⇒ book-
let Operating instructions.
Additional display information
Depending on the vehicle specification, changes to air conditioning set-
tings or information on factory-fitted driver assistance systems may be tem-
porarily displayed on the screen. These displays disappear automatically
when they are no longer required.
All displays appear only after completely restarting the radio system.
CAUTION
Only a small amount of pressure is needed to operate the unit.
Note
● Never press a button down for longer than 10 minutes. Otherwise the
system will interpret this as a malfunction ( button jammed).
● Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected
on the screen when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.
● Using a mobile phone in the vehicle may cause noise from the vehicle
speakers.
● In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the
volume of the current audio source is automatically lowered when reverse
gear is engaged. This volume can be changed while reverse is engaged. If
the volume is not modified, when reverse is disengaged the previous vol-
ume setting is restored. If the volume is modified, when reverse gear is dis- engaged the audio source will stay at the set volume and, as long as the
maximum volume is not exceeded, it will be memorised for the next time re-
verse gear is engaged.

Energy management
If, when the ignition is switched off and the unit switched on, the battery
voltage falls below the minimum onboard power supply voltage, a signal
sounds and LOW BATTERY appears. You should switch the radio off.
If the battery voltage level continues to fall, LOW BATTERY and RADIO OFF are
briefly shown on the display. The unit will switch off automatically.
