Operating safety
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
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 for the coun-
try you are in.
Bear in mind that at a speed of only 50 km/h
the vehicle covers about 14 m every second.
When using the device please follow:
Rthe safety information in these instructions
Rtraffic rules and regulations
Rmotor vehicle laws and safety standards
iTampering with electronic components
and their software could cause these to
stop working. Even systems that have not
been modified could be affected because
the electronic systems are connected.
Electronic malfunctions can seriously jeop-
ardize the operational safety of your vehi-
cle.
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
Bluetooth
®function. Audio 15 can also be

®MAP PILOT
(optional).
Observe the specified requirements for data
carriers and permissible formats.
