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.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating mobile phones.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is cov-
ering a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m)
every second.
You and others can suffer health-related dam-
age through electromagnetic radiation. By using
an exterior antenna, a possible health risk
caused by electromagnetic fields, as discussed
in scientific circles, is taken into account. Only
have the exterior antenna installed by a qualified
specialist workshop.
We recommend the use of an approved exterior
antenna for operating the mobile phone. Only in
this way can optimal mobile phone reception
quality in the vehicle be ensured and mutual
interference between the vehicle electronics
and mobile phones minimized.
Observe the legal requirements for each indi-
vidual country.
Mobile phone pre-installation
The mobile phone pre-installation includes a
hands-free system integrated into the vehicle.
The microphone for the hands-free system is
installed in the overhead control panel or in the
overhead stowage compartment together with
the front interior light.
In order to use the hands-free system, you will
need a special bracket. The Sprinter accesso-
ries include brackets for various mobile phone
models.
iMobile phone brackets which are available
from various manufacturers on the open mar- ket are not compatible with the Sprinter tele-
phone system. You can recognize suitable
holders for your mobile phone by the imprin-
ted star and the B6 spare part number on the back of the bracket.
Detailed instructions for use can be found in the
operating instructions for the mobile phone
