A WARNING
-The demands of traffic require your full at­
tention. Always read the chapter
r:::> page 147, Traffic safety information.
- Obey all traff ic laws when driving.
- The route calculated by the navigation sys-
tem is a recommendation for reaching your
destination. Obey traffic lights, stopp ing re­
strictions, one-way streets, lane change re­
strictions, etc.
(D Note
- If the driving directions conflict with traffic
laws, obey the traffic laws .
- To reduce the risk of an accident, adjust the
volume of the nav igation system so that sig­
nals from outs ide the veh icle, such as police

Ci) Tips
- Snow and obstruct ions on the GPS antenna
or interference caused by t rees and large
buildings can impair satell ite recept ion and
affect the system's ability to dete rm ine the
veh icle pos it ion. Several deactivated or mal­
functioning satell ites can also interrupt G PS
recept ion and affect the system's ability to
determine the vehicle position.
- Because street names sometimes change, the names stored in the MMI may in rare
cases d iffer from the actual street name.
