This manual uses the word “unit button” and a symbol
...
to refer to but-
tons on the unit, e.g. the RADIO unit button.
There are two unlabelled unit buttons below the screen ⇒ Fig. 1 11

ton displayed on the screen above it ⇒ Fig. 2 A
and C.
Unit buttons are operated either by pressing them or pressing and holding.
Function buttons on the screen.
Active areas of the screen that call up a certain function are called “function
buttons”. These buttons are operated by briefly pressing the screen or by
pressing and holding. Function buttons are referred to in this manual with
the button symbol ...
and the word “function button”.
If a function button on the screen has a grey background, it is disabled,
e.g. C
.
Pop-up window
A “pop-up window” is a small window B
that is temporarily displayed on
top of the current menu and contains additional function buttons.
Function buttons in pop-up windows can be selected by pressing them. This
closes the pop-up window.
Press the
⇒ Fig. 1
8 unit button to close the pop-up window without
making any changes.
Starting functions or enabling functions using “checkboxes”
Some functions are started and stopped by pressing a button, for example
the scan function ⇒ page 14.
Other functions and displays are permanently activated or deactivated and
are controlled via checkboxes.
A tick in the checkbox indicates that the function is enabled, and an emp-
ty checkbox means that it is disabled.

input is activated, the
AUX2 audio source is dis-
played on the Media se-

shown as active.
If the vehicle does not have a MEDIA-IN or MDI multimedia interface, an ad-
ditional audio source called AUX2 is made available to the user. This source
can be used to play audio from an external player connected to a Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) device through the vehicle sound system 1)
.
The audio from the external player connected to the RSE is played through
the vehicle loudspeakers but cannot be controlled with the radio and navi-
gation system controls.
An external audio source connected to the socket is indicated by AUX2 on
the screen.

operation of all functions described here.
Note
External audio sources connected to the AUX socket of the MEDIA-IN inter-
face can be played through the radio and navigation system, but cannot be
controlled from there. To control the external audio source, please see the
manufacturer's instructions. As long as the external audio source is not
switched off, it will continue operating even if another source starts to play
in the radio and navigation system.
Note
The MDI symbol remains visible and on (highlighted in red), and therefore
accessible, as long as the “Activate AUX2 input” check box (Media setup
menu) is ticked. The option should be deactivated when playback has fin-
ished.

Telephone control (Phone)
Introduction
Introduction
The telephone functions described below may be controlled using the radio
and navigation system, and by voice control, provided that there is a mobile
phone switched on and with the BT function on. In addition, the mobile
must be connected and paired via Bluetooth to the radio and navigation
system.
For the connection between the mobile phone and the radio and navigation
system, the mobile phone must have Bluetooth®
and it must be activated.
If no mobile phone is connected to the radio and navigation system, tele-
phone control from the navigator and voice control will not be available.
● Pair and connect the mobile phone to the radio and navigation system
⇒ page 77.
When the mobile phone has been paired with the navigation system, the
phone can be controlled via the navigation system and the multifunction
controls on the steering wheel using the vehicle instrument panel. Func-
tions available include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the mo-
bile phone book, access to the list of calls received, missed and recently di-
alled, and control of these functions using the voice recognition system.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Please observe instructions concerning the use of mobile phones in vehi-
cles without an external aerial ⇒ page 76.
WARNING
Telephone calls and the use of the mobile phone pre-installation while
driving may distract the driver from the road and result in accident.
● Always stay alert and drive responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times, e.g. emergency service sirens.
● Your call may be cut off or you may be unable to make calls if you are
in an area with no mobile phone network coverage, an area where the
network is very weak or, in some cases, in a tunnel, garage or underpass.
This also means that no emergency calls can be made.
WARNING
If the mobile phone is not securely fastened in position, it could be sent
flying around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking, sudden manoeu-
vres or accident, causing injury.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always secure the mobile phone prop-
erly outside the airbag deployment zone.
WARNING
Mobile phones may affect the operation of pacemakers. Always maintain
a suitable distance between the phone and the pacemaker.
● Maintain a gap of roughly 20 centimetres between the aerials of the
mobile phone and the pacemaker, as mobile phones may affect the func-
tioning of pacemakers.
