Your multimedia system equipment
These operating instructions describe all the
standard and optional equipment of your multi-
media system, as available at the time of going
to press. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may not
feature all functions described here. This also
applies to safety-relevant systems and func-
tions.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops in the vehicle Operator's Manual. Introduction
Important safety notes
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.

pool lanes option is activated.
Depending on local conditions, the multimedia

bled. The multimedia system will notify you of
this visually and through a navigation message. X

For further information on
ATTENTION ASSIST, see the
vehicle Operator's Manual. Using car pool lanes
You can include carpool lanes (HOV or car shar-
ing lanes) in the route calculation.
If you use HOV or carpool lanes, please observe the applicable laws as well as the local and time
limitation conditions.
Carpool lanes may only be used under certain
conditions. They can normally be used when
there are two people in the vehicle. However,
there are also carpool lanes which can only be
used when there are three or more people in the vehicle. If the vehicle's emission or consump-
tion values are below the prescribed levels, lone
drivers may also use the carpool lanes in Cali-
fornia.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific
times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are indicated by a diamond sym-
bol on specific road signs and on the road sur-
face. The road signs may also include the des-
ignation CARPOOL. The lanes are arranged as a separate lane next to the others or are built as a
physically separate lane.
Depending on the setting under Use Carpool Use Carpool
Lanes
Lanes, the multimedia system uses carpool
lanes when calculating the route. During route
guidance, visual and audible driving directions
provide guidance into and out of carpool lanes.
