dis
tinguish surrounding noise, for example,
horns and sirens, etc.
● Radio settings should be made when the
car i
s stopped or by a passenger. WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an ac c

Introduction
●
Lightly pr
essing the buttons or briefly
pressing the touchscreen is sufficient to op-
erate the unit.
● It is possible that not all the functions and
fu
nction buttons are available as the software
of the unit responds to the specific character-
istics of each market. A missing function but-
ton on the screen is not the result of an error
in the unit.
● Due to country-specific legislation, certain
fu
nctions cannot be selected on the screen
when the vehicle is travelling above a certain
speed.
● Using a mobile telephone inside the vehicle
can c
ause noise in the speakers.
● There may be restrictions on the use of
Bluetooth dev
ices in some countries. Infor-
mation is available from the local authorities.
● In some vehicles equipped with a parking
dis
tance warning system, the volume of the
audio source is automatically lowered when
the gear is engaged.
● If the steering wheel has a voice control
butt
on , it will not work in this radio mod-
el, so it has no function in relation to the ra-
dio. Rotary knobs and buttons
