precondition that the housing has not be en damaged and no unauthorised attempts 
have been made to carry out repairs.
Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty  must not be the result of improper 
handling of the system or from  unprofessional repair attempts. It is also essential that 
there is no external damage.Information on how to operate the radio navigation systemThe requirements of today's road traffic demand the driver’s full concentration at all 
times.
Apart from the availability entertainmen t, the extensive and demanding equipment 
details of this radio navigation system also offer a wide range of information, which will 
help you to reach your destination quickly and safely.
Only if the traffic situation allows it, should you operate the radio navigation 
system with its wide range of possibilites.
The volume settings must be selected in  such a way that audible signals from the 
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility  vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire 
brigade), can be heard at all times.
WARNING
•
Please concentrate fully at all times on  your driving! As the driver you are 
fully responsible for road safety. Only use the functions of the radio navigation 
system in such a way that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all 
traffic situations!
•
The following must always have priority over the driving recommendations:
•
the road traffic legi slation, even if the drivin g recommendations contradict 
the StVO,
•
the actual acknowledgement of traffic si gns, light signals or signs placed by 
the police at the relevant location,
•
the facts and circumstances prevai ling at the relevant location.
Before using the radio navigation system•
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•
Street and location names can be changed.  It is therefore possible that the names 
stored on the CD might not correspond to the changed names.
•
The route calculated by the radio navi gation system is a recommendation for 
reaching the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping 
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets,  lane changes, bodies of water and ferries, 
railways etc.Caution
•
Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging them. 
Gentle pressure on the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit. Please note that 
the control buttons have predetermined breaking points, in order to reduce the risk of 
injury.
•
Do not use any pointed or sharp-edged objects to operate the touch-screen. Slight 
finger pressure sufficient to operate the equipment. A display on the screen, which 
cannot be called up by pressing the button,  is therefore not available at that time.
•
Please note that a dirty or scratched navigation CD can considerably impair the 
speed and the functions of the radio navigation system.
Screen careTreat the screen with great care, because de nts and scratches can occur through finger 
pressure or contact with sharp objects.
The screen can be cleaned with a soft clot h and finger marks can be wiped away with 
pure alcohol. 
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will attack the screen surface.

Range selector key NAV (Navigation)23
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.
