Your multimediasystem equipment
These operating instructions describe all the
standard and optional equipment of your multi-
media system, as available at the time of going
to press. Country-specifi cdifferences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may not
feature all functions described here. This also
applies to safety-relevant systems andfunc-
tions.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshop s in the vehicle Operator's Manual.
Introduction
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi-
cl e while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control
of th e 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 condition s and operatethe equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating the multimedia system.
The multimedia system calculates the routeto
th edestination without taking accoun tof th e
following, for example:
Rtraffic lights
Rstop and yield signs
Rmerging lanes
Rparking or stopping in a no parking/no stop-
ping zone
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
Rnarrow bridges
The multimedia system can give incorrect navi-
gation commands if the actual street/traffic sit-
uation does notcorrespon d withthe digital
map's data. Digital maps do not cover all areas
no r all routes in an area. For example, a
route
may have been diverted or the direction of a one-
way street may have changed. Fo
rthis reason , you must always observe road
and traffic rules and regulations during your
journey. Road and traffic rules and regulations
always have priority over the system's driving
recommendations.
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your
attention from th e road anddriving.
Please always use this feature instead of con-
sulting the map display for directions. Looking
at the icons or map display can distract you from
traffic conditions and driving, and increase the
risk of an accident.
General notes
Operational readiness of the navigation syste m
The navigation system must determine the posi-
tion of the vehicle before first use or whenever
operational status is restored. Therefore, you
may have to drive fo rawhile before precise
rout e guidance is possible.
GPS reception
Amon g other things, correct functioning of the
navigation system depends on GPS reception. In
certain situations, GPS reception may be
impaired, there may be interference or there
may be no reception at all, e.g. in tunnels or
parking garages.
Using roof carriers may impair th ecorrect func-
tioning of a roof antenna (phone, satellite radio,
GPS).
Entry restriction
In certain countries, dat a entry is restricted if
th e vehicle is traveling at more than approx-
imately 3 mph (5 km/h). The restriction is deac- tivated as soo n as the vehicle speed drops
below about 2 mph (3 km/h).
When the restriction is active, certain entries
canno t be made. This will be indicated by the
fact that certain menu items are grayed out and
canno t be selected.
The following entries are not possible, for exam-
ple:
