x Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
x Whenever stalled or stopped for repair, move the vehicle a safe distance off the road, stop
the engine, turn on the emergency flashers, and use other warning devices to warn
approaching traffic.
x Never park the vehicle in areas where the hot catalytic converter and exhaust system can
come into contact with dry grass, brush, spilled fuel, oil, or other material that can catch fire.
x A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself and others. Switch on
emergency flashers and set up a warning triangle to warn oncoming traffic.

“Leaving home” functions can be enabled and disabled in the Infotainment System.

given about 55 yards (50 meters) before reaching a turning point. You should therefore drive slowly
and follow recommendations for turning as far as possible!

from the starting point if it is interrupted.
When real route guidance is started following route guidance in demo mode, the unit first has to
reorient itself. Depending on the number of currently received satellites, this orientation may take
some time. Vehicle movement can reduce the re-orientation time
.If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by GPS, any manually
entered location will be overwritten with the current vehicle location.
.Disable demo mode after use, otherwise you will be prompted to choose between virtual and
normal route guidance each time you start route guidance.
