Range selector key NAV (Navigation)OverviewSafety information regarding the use of the navigation systemThe route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or change 
the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommendations can only 
then be re-transmitted.
Incomplete navigation data
The navigation system cannot receive any data from GPS satellites if you drive for 
longer periods under thick forest canopy or  when your vehicle is in a garage, under-
pass or tunnel. In this case, the navigation system orientates itself solely with the help 
of the vehicle sensors.
In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and stored as such on the navigation 
CD, the navigation system will try to provide guidance to the destination. Please note 
that under these circumstance s the guidance to the destination may not be completely 
correct if, for example, one-way streets and  road categories (motorway, country road 
etc.) are not at all or only partially  included in the navigation data used.
WARNING
•
Always concentrate fully on your drivin g. Inattention by the driver can lead 
to accidents and injuries.
•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted or loose your concentration, pay 
attention to the traffic situation and do not carry out settings or use the radio 
navigation system.
•
Only use the radio navigation system if road, weather and traffic situations 
permit this and you are not distracted.
•
The various volume settings must be  selected in such a way that audible 
signals from the outside, such as e.g. a  Martins horn from police cars and fire 
brigade, can be heard at all times.
WARNING
•
Please observe the legal requirements  for road traffic when following the 
driving recommendations provided by your radio navigation system.
•
The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situations, 
e.g. due to road works or out of date  navigation data. In such a case, always 
observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommendations.
•
Traffic signs and traffic regulations always have priority over the driving 
recommendations provided by the navigation system.
•
Route guidance is subject to consta nt changes despite the information 
about one-way streets, pedestrian zone s etc. stored on the navigation CD. 
Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stopping 
restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not included 
in the radio navigation system.
•
Adjust your speed to suit weather, road  and traffic conditions. Do not allow, 
for example, the radio navigation system  to make you drive faster in fog - risk 
of accident!
GeneralYou can continue to listen to the radio  or play CDs during the route guidance 
When entering an address (city, street), on ly those letters or symbols which make up a 
logical entry will be presented. A list of poss ible names will be shown. Do not forget to 
enter the blank space in names made up of more than one word, such as High 
Wycombe.
The route will be recalculated if you leave or disregard the route that was originally 
calculated. This process  takes only a few seconds.
The last voice response can be repeated by  pressing the button or the menu control 
button  . The volume of a navigation reco mmendation can be changed whilst it is 
being made.
The GPS satellites will not be able to reach  the aerial once you are in a tunnel or under-
ground garage. The unit will orientate itself via the wheel sensors.

case until it is automatically drawn in.
– If you wish to take out the navigation CD, press the button  .Update navigation data– If the data of the navigation CD is  not identical to the data  on the SD card, a corre-
sponding message will be displayed.
– Press on the function key   to overwrit e the data stored on the SD card with 
the data from the navigation CD.Store the navigation data from th e navigation CD onto the memory 
card– Push a navigation CD with the written side  facing up as far as possible into the CD 
case until it is automatically drawn in.
– Push the memory card into the card case  .
– Press the range selector key   and while in the main menu  Navigation, press 
the range selector key  .
– Select the function key   using the menu control button   and 
then press the function keys   and  .
The navigation data can be stored ei ther on the CD or on the SD card.
If a SD card with navigation data of the sa me country as on the CD is inserted in the 
unit (however the data on the CD correspo nd to a newer version), a question is 
displayed after inserting the CD asking if the data should be overwritten with the new 
version or if only the data of the CD should be used for navigating. If a SD card is inserted with the cards of 
other countries than the card contained on the 
CD, a question is displayed asking if the data on the CD should be added onto the SD 
card or if only the data of the CD should be used.
You can copy data from several navigation CD s onto a SD card. The navigation data on 
the SD card are automatically linked by  the navigation system. For this reason, we 
recommend to use a SD card with sufficient  memory capacity. A memory capacity of 
approx. 4°GB is necessary in order to copy  the navigation data of Western Europe. 
Using the data of a navigation CD for a short period of time
If you only drive for short pe riods through an area which is  not stored on the SD card, 
insert the navigation CD for the driven area.
Up to date navigation data and new navigation CD
Road guidance is subject to  constant changes (e.g. new streets, changes of street 
names and house numbers). A navigation CD  is a huge data store, which unfortunately 
will not be up to date after a certain time.  This can lead to complaints during route 
guidance.
It is for this reason that you must regularly update the navigation data on your unit with 
a current navigation CD.
Remaining function buttons
The following function buttons are only active if a navigation CD is inserted in the unit 
and the memory card cont ains navigation data.
•
 - displays information regarding the navigation CD (area 
and version number of the navigation CD);
•
 - displays information regarding the stored navigation 
data and their volume;
•
 - opens the menu with which you can delete the naviga-
tion data on the memory card;
•
 - activates the storage of the naviga tion data from the navigation CD 
onto the memory card.
