INTRODUCTION
Always devote your attention primari-
ly to driving! As the driver of a motor
vehicle, you bear full responsibility for
your road safety. Never operate the
radio navigation system in a way that
could interfere with your ability to
maintain control of your vehicle in all
traffic situations!
Anti-theft coding
Anti-theft coding is an electronic system that
prevents unauthorised persons from being able
to use this equipment once it has been dis-
connected from its power source.
If “SAFE” appears in the display when the sys-
tem is switched on, it will be necessary to en-
ter the correct code before it is possible to op-
erate the system - see page 63.
Before you use the navigation
system and the map display
•Please always observe all traffic regulations
in effect while driving.
•The route calculated by the navigation sys-
tem is a recommendation on how best to reach
your selected destination. While driving, please
be sure to observe no-stopping zones, traffic
lights, one-way streets, carriageway-change
restrictions, canals and ferries.
The Road Traffic Act always takes
priority over any driving recommenda-
tion provided.
•Street and place names may change. In
rare cases, the names stored on the CD might
not be the same as those used now.
Changing the navigation CD-ROM
To change the CD-ROM, press the CD eject
button 44 44
4. The navigation CD will eject.
Carefully insert the new navigation CD, with
the label facing upwards, into the CD slot until
it is automatically drawn into the unit.
Note
To ensure that the navigation system functions
reliably, always use clean CD-ROMs free of
scratches and other damage.
Always keep the CD-ROMs in the original cas-
es provided.
Always protect the CD-ROMs from direct sun-
light!
Do not write on or put stickers on the CD-
ROMs!

INTRODUCTION
The screen provides you with important infor-
mation in different display modes (here: radio
display mode), menus or the map (navigation).
The radio display mode indicates the station
preset keys and the stations stored there. The
station you are currently listening to appears
at the top of the display.
The screen can be set to a horizontal or vertical
position to ensure optimum legibility.
Switching to night display
Switch the display either manually, by pressing
the display button 88 88
8 or automatically by
switching on the vehicle headlights. For more
information, turn to page 63.
Care of the screen
Please handle the screen carefully. Pressure
applied with your fingers may result in dents
and contact with pointed objects could leave
scratches.
Cleaning the screen
Fingerprints can be removed from the screen
by gently rubbing it with a soft cloth, moistened
with a little alcohol, if necessary.
Note
Please do not any solvents, such as petrol or
turpentine, as they will damage the material.
Menu structure
The menus that appear on the screen consist
of the following standard fields:
AA AA
A - Status line
When navigation is active, this line indicates
the status of the radio or CD functions. During
radio or CD operation, you can see which func-

traffic information stations) and the sound
source.

GPS (Global Positioning System) is a naviga-
tion system that was developed by the
Pentagon. It currently consists of 25 satellites
that orbit the Earth at an altitude of 21,000 km.
If the system is able to pick up signals from at
least 3 of the satellites, it will be able to
determine the vehicle’s current location.
•Mark and confirm the “GPS viewer” menu
field in the “Settings” menu.
The information display that appears will indi-
cate:
– the number of satellites available
– the number of satellites whose signals are
within reception range
– the current geographical location of the ve-
hicle.
Note
If the system is not able to pick up signals from
at least 3 satellites, the following message will
appear: “Geographic location cannot current-
ly be determined”. Anti-theft coding is an electronic system that
prevents unauthorised persons from using the
equipment after it has been disconnected from
its power source.
Each time that
–
the system is disconnected from the vehi-
cle power supply
– the battery is disconnected
– the electric fuse for the radio blows
the following message will appear in the dis-
play: “SAFE”. You will not be able to switch on
the system until you have entered the correct
code.
This code number can be found along with
the series number in the back of the operat-
ing instructions on the “Equipment card”.
Make sure that you remove the “Equipment
card” and keep it in a safe place. Never leave
the card inside the vehicle. This makes the
equipment useless to thieves!
