For your safety!A The use of the navigation system by no means relieves the driver of his/herresponsibilities. Always observe the applicable traffic regulations and take the current trafficconditions into consideration. You always have priority over the information provided by thenavigation system if the actual traffic situation and the information from the navigationsystem conflict.A The system does not take the relative safety of the suggested routes into consideration.Road blocks, building sites, height or weight restrictions, traffic or weather conditions orother influences which affect the route safety or travel time are not taken into considerationfor the suggested routes. Use your own discretion in order to decide on the suitability of thesuggested routes. Use the “Alternative Route” function to receive better routing suggestions,or simply follow your preferred route and the automatic routing recalculation will plan theroute for the remainder of your journey.A For the sake of traffic safety, perform inputs to the navigation system only prior to thetrip or when the vehicle is stationary.A The current statutory speed limit on the road always takes priority over the values storedin the selected navigation database. It is impossible to provide an assurance that the speedvalues of the navigation system will always match those of the current traffic regulations inevery situation.A In certain areas one-way streets, turn-off and entry restrictions (e.g. to pedestrian zones)have not been surveyed. In areas such as these the navigation system will issue a warning. Payparticular attention to one-way streets, turn-off and entry restrictions.A Please make certain that all persons using your multimedia system have access to thismanual, and that they read the instructions and suggestions concerning system operationprior to use.A If your screen is installed on a flexible support, adjust it so that you can see the screencontents quickly and easily, and reflections and dazzle or glare are avoided. Find a suitablespot to stop the vehicle prior to performing adjustments.A If your monitor is installed on a fixed support, check that your dealer has installed it inaccordance with the above recommendations. The screen must not be installed in a positionwhere it obstructs the view of any items necessary for the safe operation of the vehicle (e.g.road, mirrors, instruments, surroundings). In addition, the monitor may not be installed withindeployment range of the airbag.A Only look at the monitor if it is safe to do so. Find a suitable place to stop should youneed to look at the screen for a longer period of time.A Always store the remote control in a safe place. Unsecured objects could be flung aroundin the event of emergency braking or an accident and cause injuries to occupants.A The values displayed on the system’s “Trip computer” giving the current speed, drivingtime and the elapsed distance are calculated values. Accuracy cannot always be guaranteed.In the case of speed, the vehicle speedometer must always be given priority.A Do not rely exclusively on the navigation system when attempting to locate anemergency service (police, fire service, etc.). It cannot be guaranteed that all availableemergency services in your vicinity are stored in the database. Use your own discretion andabilities to secure help in such situations.General information 3
