Multi-function steering wheelApplies to vehicles: with multi-function steering wheelGeneral
The multi-function steering wheel enables quick and
easy operation of selected systems on the Navigation
System.To minimize driver distraction when operating the Navigation
System and its components, buttons for controlling basic audio
functions are placed on the multi-function steering wheel. However,
this applies only if your vehicle equipment was installed at the
factory.
Depending on the multi-function steering wheel in your vehicle, you
can use audio functions.
You use the buttons to operate the function that is active at the time.
For example, if you are listening to the radio, you can select the
last/next station from the station list using the or button on
the multi-function steering wheel with audio controls*.
The volume can be adjusted in each active function.
Of course, you can continue to use the audio functions from the
Navigation System.

If systems have not been installed in the vehicle, the button on the
multi-function steering wheel* assigned to that system is
inoperative.

around it.I f t h e m e m o r y c a r d h a s b e e n l o a d e d c o r r e c t l y, t h e f o r m a t t e d s t o r a g e
capacity of the card is displayed in the open display. In addition, the
file format “MP3”, or possibly the date carrier name, is displayed if
MP3 audio files have been stored on the card and they can be read
by the MP3 player.
As long as the message “Reading card...Please do not remove”
appears in the display, the memory card must not be removed from
the drive. If the memory card is removed from the drive, there is a
possibility that the data will be destroyed. In this case, the memory
card can no longer be read and must be formatted.
If a memory card has been inserted and not played, the data from
the ID3 tag s are re ad in the b ackground. If you star t playback of the
memory card immediately, the ID3 tag data are displayed for the
track being played.
Note
Use only single-piece SD/MMC memory cards. If you use SD/MMC
adapter cards (multi-piece memory cards), the memory card can
become detached from the adapter as the result of vibration while
driving. There is a possibility that individual pieces may become
stuck in the drive.
