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)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.

The navigation data can be stored ei ther on the CD or on the SD card.
If a SD card with navigation data of the sa me country as on the CD is inserted in the
unit (however the data on the CD correspo nd to a newer version), a question is
displayed after inserting the CD asking if the data should be overwritten with the new
version or if only the data of the CD should be used for navigating. If a SD card is inserted with the cards of
other countries than the card contained on the
CD, a question is displayed asking if the data on the CD should be added onto the SD
card or if only the data of the CD should be used.
You can copy data from several navigation CD s onto a SD card. The navigation data on
the SD card are automatically linked by the navigation system. For this reason, we
recommend to use a SD card with sufficient memory capacity. A memory capacity of
approx. 4°GB is necessary in order to copy the navigation data of Western Europe.
Using the data of a navigation CD for a short period of time
If you only drive for short pe riods through an area which is not stored on the SD card,
insert the navigation CD for the driven area.
Up to date navigation data and new navigation CD
Road guidance is subject to constant changes (e.g. new streets, changes of street
names and house numbers). A navigation CD is a huge data store, which unfortunately
will not be up to date after a certain time. This can lead to complaints during route
guidance.
It is for this reason that you must regularly update the navigation data on your unit with
a current navigation CD.
Remaining function buttons
The following function buttons are only active if a navigation CD is inserted in the unit
and the memory card cont ains navigation data.
•
- displays information regarding the navigation CD (area

Requirements for a dynamic route guidance
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data service for continuous transmis-
sion of traffic information. The unit has a continuous background of
TMC traffic reports providing a TMC station
at the current locati on can be received.
The quality of the transmitted traffic report s depends on the broadcast editing carried
out by the radio station. The reception of the TMC traffic reports cannot be switched
on or off.
The station you are listening to does not have to be a TMC station.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated an d displayed by the unit if the navigation
data for the currently driven area is stored in the unit memory or can be called up via
an inserted navigation CD.
The current TMC traffic reports can be disp layed by pressing the range selector key
.
Note
•
There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the TMC
