G WARNING
The engine is not being cooled sufficiently and may be damaged.
Never drive with an overheated engine. Driving when your engine has overheated
can cause any fluids that may have leaked into the engine compartment to catch fire.
In addition, steam from an overheated engine can cause serious burns, which can
occur just by opening the bonnet.
There is a risk of injury.

General notes
The section on the multimedia system in this
manual describes the basic principles for oper-
ation. More information can be found in the Dig-
ital Owner's Manual. Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you operate information and communica-
tion equipment integrated in the vehicle when driving, you could be distracted from the traf-
fic situation. This could also cause you to lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Only operate this equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you cannot be sure of this,
stop the vehicle paying attention to road and
traffic conditions and operate the equipment
with the vehicle stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when operating 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 give way signs
R parking or stopping restrictions
R road narrowing
R other road and traffic rules and regulations
The multimedia system may give incorrect driv-
ing recommendations if the actual road/traffic
situation does not correspond with the digital
map data.
For example:
R a diverted route
R the road layout or the direction of a one-way
street has been 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 multimedia system
driving recommendations. G
WARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their software as well as wiring could affect their
function and/or the operation of other net-
worked components. This could in particular
also be the case for systems relevant to
safety. They might not function properly any-
more and/or jeopardise the operational
safety of the vehicle. There is an increased
risk of an accident and injury.
Do not attempt to modify the wiring as well as
electronic components or their software.
Always have work on electrical and electronic components carried out at a qualified special-
ist workshop.
If you make any changes to the vehicle elec-
tronics, the general operating permit is ren-
dered invalid. Function restrictions
For safety reasons, some functions are restric-
ted or unavailable while the vehicle is in motion.
You will notice this, for example, because either you will not be able to select certain menu items
or a message will appear to this effect. Operating system
Overview
General notes !
Do not use the space in front of the display
for storage. Objects placed here could dam-
age the display or impair its function. Avoid
any direct contact with the display surface.
Pressure on the display surface may result in
impairments to the display, which could be
irreversible.
Wearing polarised sunglasses may impair your
ability to read the display.
The display has an automatic temperature-con- trolled switch-off feature. The brightness is
automatically reduced if the temperature is too
high. If necessary, the display may temporarily
switch off completely. Operating system

Cleaning instructions
!
Do not touch the display. The display has a
very sensitive high-gloss surface; there is a
risk of scratching. If you have to clean the
screen, however, use a mild cleaning agent
and a soft, lint-free cloth.
The display must be switched off and have
cooled down before you start cleaning. Do not
apply pressure to the display surface when
cleaning it, as this could cause irreversible dam- age to the display.

General notes Correct functioning of the navigation system
depends, amongst other things, on GPS recep-
tion. 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
multi-storey car parks.
Audio 20 is equipped with Garmin ®
MAP PILOT

The Garmin ®
MAP PILOT operating instructions
are stored on the SD card as a PDF file. The SD card box contains a quick guide.
