Important information about this manual
This Owner's Manual is valid for the different versions of the Infotainment Co-
lumbus (hereinafter referred to only as device). The device may differ depend-
ing on the vehicle model, in which it is installed in both its appearance and in

ing them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent equip-
ment. Consequently, the device on this vehicle does not need to contain all of

system, the menu points CANTON Optimisation, CANTON Surround and CAN-
TON Equaliser are not shown.

The Images in these Operating Instructions are for illustrative purposes only.
The illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only in-
tended to provide general information.

with all vehicles. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time
with regard to design, equipment and technology. The information listed in
these Operating Instructions corresponds to the information available at the
