Function restrictions
For safety reasons, some functions are restric-
ted or unav ailable while the vehicle is in motion.
You willnotice this, for example, because either
you willnotbe able to select certain menu items
or a message willappear to th iseffect.
Data stored in the vehicle
Data recording
A wide range of electronic components in your
vehicle contain data memories.
These data memories temporarily or perma-
nently store technical information about:
Rthe vehicle's operating state
Revents
Rmalfunctions
In general, this technical information docu-
ments the state of a component, a module, a
system or the surroundings.
These include, for example:
Roperating conditions of system components,
e.g. fluid leve ls
Rthe vehicle's status messages and those of its
individual components, e.g. number of wheel
revolutions/speed, decelerationinmove-
ment, lateral acceleration, accelerator pedal
position
Rmalfunctions and defects in important system
components, e.g. lights, brakes
Rvehicle reactions and operating conditions in
special driving situations, e.g. air bag deploy-
ment, intervention of stability control sys-
tems
Rambient conditions, e.g. outside temperature
This data isof an exclusively technical nature
and can beused to:
Rassist in detecting and rectifying faults and
defects
Ranalyze vehicle functions, e.g. after an acci-
dent
Roptimize vehicle function
The data cannot be used to trace the vehicle's
movements.
When your vehicle isserviced, technical infor-
mation can beread f
rom the event data memory
and fault data memory.
Services include, for example:
Rrepair services
Rservice processes
Rwarranty events
Rquality assurance
The vehicle is read out byemployees of the ser-
vice network (including the manufacturer) using
special diagnostic testers. You can obtain more
information there, if required.

Off-road
General notes
The multimedia system may guide you to off-
road routes that your vehicle cannot drive on
without causing damage to the tires and wheels,
or the vehicle itself. It is the driver’s sole respon-
sibility to determine the suitability of the route.
The state and navigability of off-road routes may
be influenced, for example, by factors such as
time of day, time of year and current weather
conditions. The multimedia system cannot
judge these factors or take them into account
for route guidance.
Route guidance to an off-road destina-
tion
The multimedia system can guide you to desti-
nations which are within the area of the digital
map, but which are not themselves on the map.
These destinations are known as off-road des-
tinations, which you can enter using the map, for
example. In these cases, the multimedia system
guides you for as long as possible with naviga-
tion announcements and displays on roads
known to the system.
If the vehicle reaches an area which is not part of the digital map, the display appears as a split-
screen view. On the right, an arrow appears that
points to the off-road destination. You hear the
announcement: "Please follow the arrow on the
display". As the vehicle approaches the desti-
nation, you will see a display to this effect.
Route guidance from an off-road loca-
tion to a destination
Off-road location: the vehicle's position is on the
digital map, but the map does not contain any
information about that location. The multimedia system is able to guide you to a destination even
from an off-road location.
At the start of route guidance, you will see the
Road Not Mapped
message, an arrow and the
distance to the destination. The arrow shows
the compass heading to the actual destination.
As soon as the vehicle is back on a road known
to the system, route guidance continues in the
usual way.
Off-road during route guidance
Due to road construction, for example, there
may be differences between the data on the
digital map and the actual course of the road.
In such cases, the system will temporarily be
unable to locate the vehicle position on the dig-
ital map. The vehicle is therefore in an off-road
position.
In the display, you will then see the Road Not
Mappedmessage, an arrow and the distance to
the destination. The direction arrow shows the
compass heading to the destination.
As soon as the system can assign the vehicle
position to the map again, route guidance con-
tinues in the usual way.
Real-time traffic reports
Requirements
In order to receive real-time traffic reports via
satellite radio, you need to subscribe to SIRIUS
XM Satellite Radio Traffic Message Service.
Further information on satellite radio
(
Ypage 138).
The multimedia system can receive traffic
reports via satellite radio and take account of
these for route guidance in the navigation sys-
tem. Received traffic reports are displayed on
the map either as text or as symbols.
