Navigation data

First and foremost, pay attention to the safety instructions » page 4 , Impor-
tant notes .
The unit uses the GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite system for naviga-
tion. The satellite signal allows you to determine your current vehicle position.
If the unit is outside the range of the GPS satellite signal (e.g. in dense vegeta-
tion, in tunnels, parking garages, etc.), the unit navigates only with restrictions
using on-vehicle sensors.
Navigation is done:
› by graphical instructions in the device screen and Maxi DOT display;
› via voice guidance.
The navigation unit can be operated: › using the buttons on the unit
» page 43;
› using the function keys in the unit screen
» page 43;
› using voice control
» page 13.
› on the MAXI DOT display
» page 12 .
WARNING■
Information about traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and
stopping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is
not taken into account for navigation by the unit.■
Always adjust the driving speed to the road, traffic and weather condi-
tions.
■
The navigation announcement provided may vary from current situations,
e.g. due to road works or out-of-date navigation data.
■
The volume should be adjusted to ensure that acoustic signals from out-
side, e.g. sirens from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police,
ambulance and fire brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.
CAUTIONIn some countries, some unit features can no longer be selected when the ve-
hicle is running faster than a certain speed. This is not a malfunction, but com-
plies with the national legal regulations.
