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.

Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models as
well as standard and optional equipment of your
vehicle that were available at the time of going
to print. Country-specific variations are possi-
ble. Note that your vehicle may not be equipped
with all of the described functions. This also
applies to systems and functions relevant to
safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (
Ypage 31).
Stowage spaces and stowage com-
partments
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you transport objects in the vehicle interior
and these are not adequately secured, they
could slip or be flung around and thereby
strike vehicle occupants. In addition, cup
holders, open stowage spaces and mobile
phone brackets may not always be able to
hold the objects placed in them in the event of
an accident. There is a risk of injury, particu-
larly in the event of sharp braking or sudden
changes of direction.
RAlways stow objects in such a way that they cannot be tossed about in these or similar
situations.
RAlways make sure that objects do not pro-
trude out of the stowage spaces, luggage
nets or stowage nets.
REnsure that closable stowage spaces are
shut before beginning your journey.
RAlways stow and secure heavy, hard, poin-
ted, sharp-edged, fragile or large objects in
the cargo compartment.
