not link or connect the telephone, do not work with the contact list, do not
enter any destinations, do not connect WLAN or SmartLink etc.)- Other-
wise there is a risk of an accident!

does not restrict you when driving.

cle, e.g. sirens from emergency vehicles, can be heard at all times.
v
High volumes can cause hearing damage!
CAUTION
In some countries, some Infotainment functions can no longer be selected
when the vehicle is running faster than a certain speed. This is not a malfunc- tion, but complies with the national legal regulations.
