Operation when driving The demands of today's road traffic require fu ll concentration from all road users at all 
times.
WARNING
•
Always concentrate fully on  your driving. Inattention by the driver can lead 
to accidents and injuries.
•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted by trying to use the unit, concentrate 
instead on the traffic situation.
•

signals from the outside, such as e.g. a  Martins horn from police cars and fire 
brigade, can be heard at all times.Note
Depending on the country, some functions  of the radio navigation system can no 
longer be selected on the screen at certai n speeds. This is not a malfunction, but corre-
sponds to the legal requirements of this particular country.Special functionsPar king aid*
If your vehicle is equi pped with “parking aid” and after it is activated, the distance to 
the obstacle is shown on the screen.
Climatronic*
If your vehicle is equipped with climatronic, a feedback is received on the screen when 
changing the settings.
Personalisation
Your vehicle can be equipped with up to fo ur keys. Individual settings of the unit are 
always assigned to the key, which is currentl y inserted in the ignition lock. In practice,  this means that each time you use another ve

switched off, the system switches off automa tically after approx. half an hour (vehicle 
battery protection against discharging). Th is process can be repeated as often as 
necessary.General - operationThe screen of the unit is a so-called touch screen (touch-screen). Fields circled in 
colour on the touch-screen are presently “a ctive” and are operated by touching the 
screen. Active fields, which call up a function or a menu, are called “ function buttons” 
 /  .

Fa st : calculates the fastest route to the dest ination, even if a detour is necessary.
Short : calculates the shortest route, even if a longer driving time is necessary. Please 
note that the setting “Short  route” during route guidance  can sometimes lead to unex-

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.
