Overview
Before using the radio navigation system Street and location names can be changed. It is therefore possible under excep-
tional circumstances that the names stored in the navigation data might not cor-
respond to the changed names.
In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and which are therefore not inclu-
ded in the navigation data, the radio navigation system will try to continue provid-
ing guidance to the destination. Please note that under these circumstances the
guidance to the destination may not be completely correct if, for example, one-
way streets and road categories (motorway, country road etc.) are not at all or on-
ly partially included in the navigation data used.
The route calculated by the radio navigation system is a recommendation for
reaching the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets, lane changes, bodies of water and fer-
ries, railways etc. Ð
Safety instructions for the operation of the navigation system WARNING
● Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving! Inattention by the
driver can lead to accidents and injuries. As the driver you are fully responsible
for road safety.
● The following must always have priority over the driving recommenda-
tions:
–the road traffic legislation, even if the driving recommendations contra-
dict the StVO,
– the actual acknowledgement of traffic signs, light signals or signs
placed by the police at the relevant location,
– the facts and circumstances prevailing at the relevant location.
● Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving. WARNING (Continued)
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations always have priority over the driving
recommendations provided by the navigation system.
● Route guidance is subject to constant changes, particularly to information
relating to one-way streets, pedestrian zones etc. stored in the navigation da-
ta. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stop-
ping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not in-
cluded in the radio navigation system.
● Adjust your speed to suit weather, road and traffic conditions. Do not al-
low, for example, the radio navigation system to make you drive faster in fog -
risk of accident!
● Only if the traffic situation allows it should you operate the radio naviga-
tion system with its wide range of possibilities.
● The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situations,
e.g. due to road works or out of date navigation data. In such a case, always
observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommendations. Ð
General The route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or
change the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommenda-
tions can only then be re-transmitted.
When entering an address (city, street), only those letters or symbols which make
up a logical entry will be presented. A list of possible names will be shown. Do not
forget to enter the blank space in names made up of more than one word, such as
High Wycombe ⇒
page 6, Input screen with keypad
The last voice response can be repeated by pressing the button 15 . The volume of
a navigation recommendation can be changed whilst it is being made.
The GPS satellites will not be able to reach the aerial once you are in a tunnel or
underground garage. The unit will orientate itself via the wheel sensors. 18

Dynamic route guidance with TMC use The prerequisite for dynamic route guidance is being able to receive a TMC traffic
radio station for the navigation area. Received TMC traffic reports are shown in a
list
⇒ page 25, Displaying TMC traffic reports
.
When the dynamic route guidance is activated, the route calculation includes pos-
sible TMC traffic notifications.
Traffic problems received via TMC which affect the route are displayed in the map
by means of a coloured symbol. Traffic problems, which do not affect the route,
are displayed in the map by means of a grey symbol. The positioning of the TMC
symbol shows the beginning of a traffic disruption and the direction, when the
TMC traffic report is able to clearly define both.
When the function Dynamic Route ⇒ page 20, Settings in the (NAV) Navigation
mode is activated and the radio navigation system calculates a time advantage for
driving around the traffic disruption along the route, an alternative route is calcu-
lated automatically.
When recalculating the route, a corresponding navigation announcement is out-
put. The same announcement is made when there was a traffic disruption in the
original route calculation which has since been removed. Note
● Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not al-
ways offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested.
● If a traffic disruption was not yet entered via the TMC traffic reports, route dis-
ruptions can also be entered manually ⇒ page 23,
