is referred to as the volume con-
trol  or the on/off switch.
The central rotary/push knob ⇒ Fig. 1 10
is referred to as the setting knob. Unit buttons
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
. Each
has the same function and is operated in the same way as the function but-
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.

Fig. 29 Media setup
menu
Fig. 30 When the AUX2
input is activated, the
AUX2 audio source is dis-
played on the Media se-
lector and is always
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. 

displayed at the top selection level of the track view ⇒ Fig. 42. This iPod se-
lection menu always has the same structure and is operated in the familiar
way.

make sure the external data
medium is working correctly.
Due to the large number of different data media and various iPod ®
and
iPhone ®
generations available, it is not possible to guarantee fault-free
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.
Note
The USB connection takes precedence over the MEDIA-IN interface AUX in-
put. Both of these, or an iPod adapter where applicable, take precedence
over the additional input. Therefore, to play audio from a device connected
to the AUX RSE input, first make sure that there are no devices or cables
connected to the MEDIA-IN interface.
Note
For further information, please see the Rear Seat Entertainment system
handbook.
Note
If another audio source (CD, SD, etc.) is selected during playback, the exter-
nal player connected to the RSE continues playing. 

Telephone control (Phone)
Telephone control (Phone) Introduction
General information
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 74.
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
⇒  page 91. Functions available include making calls in hands-free mode,
access to the mobile phone book, access to the list of calls received, missed
and recently dialled, and control of these functions using the voice recogni-
tion system ⇒ page 93.
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 89.
WARNING
Read and observe the safety warnings ⇒ 
in General information on
page 87.

94Bluetooth System
You can use the HELP in any part of the menu. If you have any doubts or
cannot decide the Command to use, the system will provide you with the
available options.
You can CANCEL in any part of the menu. 
Basic functions when using voice control
Adjusting the volume
You can change the sound volume at any time with the radio button or with
the buttons on the multifunction control.
The volume transmitted by the speaker depends, among other aspects, on
the volume transmitted by the mobile. If the volume of the mobile is low, or
on silent, it is possible that no sound will be heard through the car speaker.
Adjust the volume of your Bluetooth device to the maximum.
Do not leave headphones connected to the Bluetooth device when you wish
to use the hands free system.
Complying with these requirements, if the speaker volume is very high, ad-
just it using the controls on the steering wheel or the volume control on the
radio.
Connecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to start the dialogue at any moment.
If the system does not recognise your command, there is a first help option
which allows a new input. After the second failed attempt, the system re-
peats the second part of the assistance cue. After a third failure the system
will answer with “Operation cancelled” and the dialogue will be ended. Disconnecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒  Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to end the dialogue at any moment. If the sys-
tem is waiting for a command, you can end the dialogue with the “CANCEL”
command.
Interrupting an on-going message
By pressing the “PTT button” ⇒  Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  during the mes-
sage, only the current message is ended and it is possible to give another
command. 
Proper use of the voice control
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● Avoid poor articulation of words.
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.
● Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).
● At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out back-
ground noises.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.
● The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend us-
ing the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers. 
