Operating safety
Important safety notes
GWARNING
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 when
operating the multimedia system.
The multimedia system calculates the route to
the destination without taking account of the
following, for example:
Rtraffic lights
Rstop and yield signs
Rmerging lanes
Rparking or stopping in a no parking/no stop-
ping zone
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
Rnarrow bridges
The multimedia system can give incorrect navi-
gation commands if the actual street/traffic sit-
uation does not correspond with the digital
map's data. Digital maps do not cover all areas
nor all routes in an area. 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. Bear in mind that at a speed of only 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/
h), your vehicle covers a
distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m) every
second.
This equipment complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled equip-
ment and meet s t
he FCC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
This equipment has very low levels of RF energy
that is deemed to comply without maximum
permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). How-
ever, it is recommended to install it at a distance
of at least 8 inches (approx. 20 cm) between the
radiation source and a person's body (not
including limbs such as hands, wrists, feet and
legs).
GWARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their software as well as wiring can impair their
function and/or the function of other net-
worked components. In particular, systems
relevant to safety could also be affected. As a
result, these may no longer function as inten-
ded and/or jeopardize the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is an increased risk of an
accident and injury.
Never tamper with the wiring as well as elec-
tronic components or their software. You
should have all work to electrical and elec-
tronic equipment carried out at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Declarations of conformity

and/or transmit radio waves
