Navigation system
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the veh i-
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 traff icconditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle isstationary.
Observe the legal requirements for the country
you are in.
The multimedia system calculates the route to
the destination without taking account of the
following, for example:
Rtraff iclights
Rstop and giveway signs
Rparking or stopping restrictions
Rroad narrowing
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
The multimedia system may provide incorrect
navigation announcements if the surroundings
do not correspond to the data on the digital
map. For example, a route may have been diver-
ted 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
jo urney. Road and traffic rules and regulations
always have priority over the system's driving
recommendations.

GPS reception
Correct functioning of the navigation system
depends, amongst other aspects, 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
parking garages.
Preparing navigation
Inserting the navigation module
iSwitch off the ignition before removing or
inserting the navigation module.
XOpen the glove box.
XInsert the navigation module into the device
holder.
The battery built into the navigation module
starts charging when the vehicle ignition is
switched on.
XRemove the catch on the front side of the
device holder.
This way, the navigation module is secured, as
well as protected against theft.
XClose the glove box.
Switching on the navigation system
XPress the ßbutton.
or
XPress the 9button repeatedly until the
main menu bar is selected.
XSelect Navi.
The display shows the main menu of the nav- igation system.
iIf the battery was completely discharged, it
takes up to 1 minute before the navigation
system is ready.

!Vehicles with a gasoline engine:avoid
repeated and lengthy starting attempts. Oth-
erwise, the catalytic converter could be dam-
aged by non-combusted fuel.
If the indicator and warning lamps in the instru-
ment cluster do not light up at low tempera-
tures, the discharged battery may have frozen.
In this case you may neither charge the battery
nor jump-start the vehicle. The service life of a
thawed battery may be shorter. Start-up behav-
ior may deteriorate, in particular at low temper-
atures. Have the thawed battery checked at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Do not use a rapid charging device to start the
vehicle. If your vehicle's battery is discharged,
the engine can be jump-started from another
vehicle or from a donor battery using jumper
cables. For this purpose, the vehicle has a jump-
starting connection point in the engine com-
partment.
When jump-starting, observe the following
points:
RThe battery is not accessible in all vehicles. If
the other vehicle's battery is not accessible,
jump-start the vehicle using a donor battery
or a jump-starting device.
RYou may only jump-start the vehicle when the
engine and exhaust system are cold.
Rdo not start the engine if the battery is frozen.
Let the battery thaw first.
Rjump-starting may only be performed from
batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
Ronly use jumper cables that have a sufficient
cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
Rif the battery is fully discharged, attach the
battery of another vehicle for a few minutes
before attempting to start. This charges the
empty battery a little.
Rmake sure that the two vehicles do not touch.
Make sure that:
Rthe jumper cables are not damaged.
Rbare parts of the terminal clamps do not come into contact with other metal parts while the
jumper cables are connected to the battery.
Rthe jumper cables cannot come into contact
with parts such as the V-belt pulley or the fan.
These parts move when the engine is started
and while it is running.
Jumper cables and further information regarding
jump starting can be obtained at any qualified
specialist workshop.
Before connecting the jumper cables
XApply the parking brake.
XShift the transmission to position P.
XSwitch off all electrical consumers, e.g. audio
equipment, blower.
XTurn the key to position 0in the ignition lock
and remove it.
XOpen the hood (Ypage 253).
Connecting the jumper cable
XPush contact protection cover :of the jump-
starting connection point backwards against
the spring force as far as it will go.
The jump-starting connection point is visible.
Terminal connecting planXRemove the cover from positive terminal =
of the donor vehicle's battery.
XConnect the positive terminal clamp of the
jumper cable to positive terminal =of the
donor vehicle's battery, and then to positive
terminal Aof the jump-starting connection
point.
XRun the donor vehicle's engine at idling
speed.
