These operating instructions describe all the

to press. Country-specific differences are pos-

G
WARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the country in which you are currently driving whenoperating the multimedia system.
The multimedia system calculates the route to
the destination without taking the following into
account, for example:
R traffic lights
R stop and yield signs
R merging lanes
R parking or stopping in a no parking/no stop-
ping zone
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
R narrow bridges
The multimedia system may give incorrect nav-
igation commands if the actual street/traffic
situation does not correspond with the digital
map's data. For example, a route may have been
diverted or the direction of a one-way street may have changed. For this reason, you must always observe road
and traffic rules and regulations during your
journey. Road and traffic rules and regulations
always have priority over the system's driving
recommendations.
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your
attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of con-
sulting the map display for directions. Looking
at the icons or map display can distract you from traffic conditions and driving, and increase the
risk of an accident. General notes
Operational readiness of the navigation system The navigation system must determine the posi-
tion of the vehicle before first use or whenever
operational status is restored. Therefore, you
may have to drive for a while before precise
route guidance is possible.
GPS reception Among other things, correct functioning of the
navigation system depends on GPS reception. In
certain situations, GPS reception may be
impaired, there may be interference or there
may be no reception at all, e.g. in tunnels or
parking garages.
i Using roof carriers may impair the correct
functioning of a roof antenna (phone, satellite
radio, GPS).
Entry restriction For vehicles in certain countries, there is a data
entry restriction.
The restriction is active from a vehicle speed of
above approximately 3 mph (5 km/h).As soon
as the speed falls below approximately 2 mph
(3 km/h), the restriction becomes inactive.
When the restriction is active, certain entries
cannot be made. Menu items are shown in gray and cannot be selected.
For example:
R entering the destination city and street
R entering a destination via the map Introduction
