precondition that the housing has not be en damaged and no unauthorised attempts 
have been made to carry out repairs.
Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty  must not be the result of improper 
handling of the system or from  unprofessional repair attempts. It is also essential that 
there is no external damage.Information on how to operate the radio navigation systemThe requirements of today's road traffic demand the driver’s full concentration at all 
times.
Apart from the availability entertainmen t, the extensive and demanding equipment 
details of this radio navigation system also offer a wide range of information, which will 
help you to reach your destination quickly and safely.
Only if the traffic situation allows it, should you operate the radio navigation 
system with its wide range of possibilites.
The volume settings must be selected in  such a way that audible signals from the 
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility  vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire 
brigade), can be heard at all times.
WARNING
•
Please concentrate fully at all times on  your driving! As the driver you are 
fully responsible for road safety. Only use the functions of the radio navigation 
system in such a way that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all 
traffic situations!
•
The following must always have priority over the driving recommendations:
•
the road traffic legi slation, even if the drivin g recommendations contradict 
the StVO,
•
the actual acknowledgement of traffic si gns, light signals or signs placed by 
the police at the relevant location,
•
the facts and circumstances prevai ling at the relevant location.
Before using the radio navigation system•
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•
Street and location names can be changed.  It is therefore possible that the names 
stored on the CD might not correspond to the changed names.
•
The route calculated by the radio navi gation system is a recommendation for 
reaching the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping 
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets,  lane changes, bodies of water and ferries, 
railways etc.Caution
•
Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging them. 
Gentle pressure on the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit. Please note that 
the control buttons have predetermined breaking points, in order to reduce the risk of 
injury.
•
Do not use any pointed or sharp-edged objects to operate the touch-screen. Slight 
finger pressure sufficient to operate the equipment. A display on the screen, which 
cannot be called up by pressing the button,  is therefore not available at that time.
•
Please note that a dirty or scratched navigation CD can considerably impair the 
speed and the functions of the radio navigation system.
Screen careTreat the screen with great care, because de nts and scratches can occur through finger 
pressure or contact with sharp objects.
The screen can be cleaned with a soft clot h and finger marks can be wiped away with 
pure alcohol. 
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will attack the screen surface.

Range selector key RADIO15
The display “TP” in combination with a station name (e.g. in the station or preset list), 
indicates a traffic programme station.
Irrespective of which radio st ation is heard, an additional receiver part in the unit 
ensures that a traffic programme station can always be received as long as the traffic 
programme function is switched on.
The functionality of the tr affic programme function “ TP” is displayed at the top right on 
the touch-screen.
If no traffic programme station can be rece ived because, for example, radio reception 
is interrupted in general, “ No TP” will be displayed instead of “ TP”. Remember that car 
parks, tunnels, high building s or mountains can interrupt  the radio signal up to the 
total loss of reception.

displayed in colour. A traffic problem which  is located on the route (in direction of 
travel) is marked in red, a traffic problem  in the opposite direction is marked in grey.
Note
•
The unit has a continuous background of TMC traffic reports providing a TMC 
station at the current location can be receiv ed. The station you are listening to does not 
have to be a TMC station.
•
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated  and stored by the unit if the nagivation 
data (SD card or CD) is available for the driven area.
•
The quality of the dynamic route guidan ce depends on the transmitted traffic 
announcements. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for 
the content.
•
TMC traffic reports are necessar y for the dynamic navigation.
•
There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the TMC 
traffic reports, the diversion is also heavily congested.
