Safety notes
WARNING
Using the radio system while the vehicle is in motion can distract you
from the road and lead to accidents.
● Observe legal requirements.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
WARNING
External devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly se-
cured could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or brak-
ing manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always secure external devices proper-
ly outside the airbag deployment zones.
WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may obstruct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they do not obstruct the driver.
WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when you switch audio source or
connect a new audio source.
● Reduce the base volume before switching audio source or connecting
a new audio source ⇒ page 11.

● 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.
