Notes on operating safety

& WARNING Risk of distraction from infor‐
mation systems and communications
equipment
If you operate information and communica‐
tion equipment integrated in the vehicle
when driving, you will be distracted from the
traffic situation. This could also cause you to
lose control of the vehicle.
Only operate this equipment when the
#
traffic situation permits.
If you cannot be sure of this, stop the
#
vehicle whilst paying attention to road
and traffic conditions and operate the
equipment with the vehicle stationary.
For your own safety, always observe the follow‐
ing points when operating mobile communica‐
tions equipment and especially your voice con‐
trol system:
Observe the legal requirements for the coun‐
R
try in which you are driving.
If you use the voice control system in an
R
emergency your voice can change and your
telephone call, e.g. an emergency call, can
thereby be unnecessarily delayed.
Familiarise yourself with the voice control
R
system functions before starting the journey.
