Navigation data
First and foremost, pay attention to the safety instructions
tant notes.
The unit uses the GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite system for naviga-
tion. The satellite signal allows you to determine your current vehicle position.
If the unit is outside the range of the GPS satellite signal (e.g. in dense vegeta-
tion, in tunnels, parking garages, etc.), the unit navigates only with restrictions
using on-vehicle sensors.
Navigation is done:
›
by graphical instructions in device display screen and in the display of the in-
strument cluster;
›
by announcements.
The navigation unit can be operated:
›
using the buttons on the unit » page
›
using the function keys in the unit screen
›
using voice control » page 16.
›
via the display of the instrument cluster
WARNING
E.g. information about traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking
■
and stopping restrictions as well as lane constrictions or speed restrictions
is not detected for navigation by the device.
Always adjust the driving speed to the road, traffic and weather condi-
■
tions.

WARNING (Continued)
The nav. announcements provided may vary from the actual situations,
■
e.g. due to road works or out-of-date navigation data.
The volume should be adjusted to ensure that acoustic signals from out-
■
side, e.g. sirens from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police,
ambulance and fire brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.
CAUTION
In some countries, some unit features can no longer be selected when the ve-
hicle is running faster than a certain speed. These limitations comply with na-

tional legal requirements.
