First and foremost, pay attention to the safety instructions » page 4 , Important
notes .
Some equipment functions can be operated using voice commands. This acceler- ates the use of the device and increases comfort while driving.
Voice control can be used in the Radio, Media , Phone and Navigation menus.
The voice control system can be operated either by the driver or by the front pas-
senger.
WARNING■ Please pay attention to the traffic first and foremost. As the driver you are
fully responsible for road safety. Only use the system in a way that leaves you in full control of your vehicle in every traffic situation – there is the risk of an
accident.■
Do not use the voice control system under stress or in an emergency. Your
voice commands may not be recognized in such situations. In such circum-
stances it may not be possible to establish a telephone connection or the con-
nection may take too much time to complete. The emergency number should
be dialled manually.

DAB programme tracking
If a DAB station is a member of several station groups, when the signal is poor,
the same station is searched in a different station group.
Auto-change DAB -FM
If the DAB signal is poor, the unit will try to find a corresponding FM station for
the DAB station you are currently listening to.
For auto-change to work, the DAB and FM stations must send a sender ID.
› While the station is received on the FM band, (
) is displayed after the station
name. When the relevant DAB station can be received again the marker disap- pears ( ).
› If a DAB station is also not available in the FM frequency band due to poor re-
ception, the device will be switched to mute.
› If you do not want automatic station change (e.g. when driving through tunnels,
when reception may be lost temporarily), you can deactivate this function .
L-band
Different frequency ranges are used for DAB radio reception in different coun-
tries. In some countries the DAB radio reception is only in the so-called L-band.
› If you have any problems with the DAB wireless reception check that DAB Auto-
matic search in L-band is on.
› If there is no DAB radio reception in that country in the L-band, then it is better
to leave it off this menu item. The channel scan is faster.

TMC traffic reports are used to optimise the route during route guidance when
there are traffic disruptions.
The device can obtain this information by using the following facilities:
› Traffic TP in the FM frequency range
» page 25 .
› TP in the DAB frequency range
› TMC traffic report with dynamic adjustment of the current route option
For the correct TMC function, the following conditions are required: The vehicle is within range of the FM RDS-TMC.Adequate and uninterrupted signal reception of a traffic report station 1)
.
Current navigation data in the device.
Operation
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital data service emitted by the radio sta-tion for continuous transmission of traffic information.
›
Press TRAFFIC to display a list of
traffic reports …/… .
Touch one of the traffic report entries to display traffic report details » page 64.
If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
ports are updated continuously in the background. The station you are listening
to does not have to be a TMC station.
The reception of TMC traffic reports is always switched on and cannot be turned off.
The accuracy of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traffic
reports. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for the
content.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation sys- tem when navigation data are available for the driven area.
Switch dynamic route on/off
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.›
In the Navigation main menu, press Route options → → Dynamic route .
Traffic reports influence dynamic route guidance by means of TMC reports when
the Dynamic route » page 47 function is switched on.
Dynamic route switched on
Information on traffic problems received via TMC which affect the route are dis-
played in the map by means of a coloured symbol (e.g., , , , etc.). Traffic
problems, which do not affect the route, are displayed in the map by means of a
grey symbol. The direction in which a traffic problem is found, is displayed by
means of an arrow in the symbol.
Dynamic route switched off
You are not alerted to received traffic disruptions along your route and are guided
through the traffic disruption by the radio navigation system. The traffic reports are updated automatically in the unit and displayed by pressing the button TRAFFIC
.
If one of the announced traffic disruptions lies along your route, you can also
switch on the dynamic route guidance during the current route guidance or block
the route manually » page 63.
Note
Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not always
offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested.
Detailed traffic reports
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.
After pressing the TRAFFIC button, a screen appears with the following informa-
tion:

Stopover
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 65.
It is possible to add a stopover to the route during route guidance. Route guid-
ance then occurs first to the stopover. After the stopover has been reached, route guidance is continued.
› In the Navigation main menu, press
→ New dest./stopover to open a menu
for entering a new destination » page 54.
If route guidance is available, after entering the stopover the system displays the
message Would you like to add a new stopover destination or start direct route
guidance? and the following items:
■ Cancel - Cancels the stopover destination input and the destination guidance to
the original destination is continued
■ Stopover - the destination entered is added to the route and guidance to this
destination is initially provided
■ Dir. r. guid. - The destination entered is added as the final destination and the
original final destination is replaced by this new destination
If destination guidance is already provided with the stopover, after a new desti- nation has been entered, the device displays the message Would you like to re-
place the current stopover destination or start direct route guidance? and the
following items:
■ Cancel - Cancels the stopover destination input and destination guidance to the
original destinations is continued
■ Replace - The original stopover is replaced with the destination entered and
destination guidance is initially undertaken to this destination while the final
destination remains unchanged
■ Dir. r. guid. - The destination entered is added as the final destination and the
original destinations are replaced by this new destination
If you would like to use the stopover as the final destination and the original final destination as a stopover, then select the Dir. r. guid. input and then input the
original final destination again as a stopover.
