munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
Observe the legal requirements of the coun-
try in which you are currently driving.

have not been modified could be affected
because the electronic systems are con-
nected. Electronic malfunctions can seri-
ously jeopardize the operational safety of
your vehicle.
Always have all work on or modifications to electronic components carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop. Proper use
Audio 15 can be used to receive radio sta-
tions, to play back SD memory cards and
other data carriers and to make calls via the

munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic

The navigation system calculates the route to
the destination without taking account of the following, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and give way signs
R parking or stopping restrictions
R road narrowing
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
The navigation system may provide incorrect
navigation announcements if the surround-
ings do not correspond to the data on the
digital map. For example, a route may have
been diverted or the direction of a one-way
street may have changed.
For this reason, you must always observe
road and traffic rules and regulations during
your journey. Road and traffic rules and reg-
ulations always have priority over the sys-
tem's driving recommendations. Becker
