Notes on route guidance
& WARNING Risk of distraction from oper‐
ating integrated communication equip‐
ment while the vehicle is in motion
If you operate communication 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.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating the multimedia system.
Route guidance begins once a route has been cal‐
culated.
The road and traffic rules and regulations always
have priority over multimedia system driving
instructions.
Driving instructions are:
Navigation announcements
R
Route guidance displays
R
Lane recommendations

If you do not follow the driving instructions or if
you leave the calculated route, a new route is cal‐
culated automatically.
Driving instructions may differ from the actual
road and traffic conditions if:
The route is diverted
R
The direction of a one-way street has been
R
changed
For this reason, you must always observe road
and traffic rules and regulations during your jour‐
ney as well as the prevailing traffic conditions.
The route may differ from the ideal route due to
the following:
Roadworks
R
Incomplete digital map data

In certain situations GPS reception can be
impaired, defective or even not possible, e.g. in
tunnels or in multi-storey car parks.
