Important! Safety instructions

Use of the navigation unit is only permitted if the traffic conditions are suitable and you are absolutely sure that no risk, obstruction or inconvenience will be incurred to you, your passengers or other road users.

The requirements of the Road Traffic Regulations apply at all times. The destination must only be entered when the vehicle is stationary.

The navigation system serves solely as an aid to navigation. It neither releases the driver from his duty to drive carefully in road traffic, nor does it take the place of his own ability to make judgement. It is possible that inaccurate or incorrect instructions are given due to changing traffic conditions or varying data. The actual road signs and traffic regulations must therefore always be observed. In particular, the navigation system cannot be used as an aid to orientation when visibility is poor.

The unit must only be used for its intended purpose. The volume of the car radio/navigation system must be adjusted so that external noise is still audible.

Switch off the unit immediately if a fault occurs (e.g. emission of smoke or odours).

In the interest of safety, the unit must only be opened by a specialist. Please refer to your dealer for repair.

Navigation operation

What is navigation?

The term "navigation" (lat. navigare = to travel by sea) is generally understood to mean the location of a vehicle, the determination of the direction and distance from the desired destination and the required route. Stars, prominent landmarks, compasses and satellites etc. are used as navigation tools.

With this unit, the location is determined via the GPS receiver (GPS = Global Positioning System). The direction and distance from the destination is determined using a digital street map, a navigation computer and sensors. A speedometer and reverse signal are additionally used to calculate the route. For safety reasons, route guidance follows predominantly in spoken form supported by a direction indicator on the display.

Safety instructions

• The requirements of the Road Traffic Regulations (RTR) apply.
- Observation of traffic signs and local traffic regulations always takes priority.
- Traffic guidance is restricted to passenger vehicles. Special driving recommendations and regulations for other vehicles (e.g. commercial vehicles) are not taken into account.
- The destination must only be entered when the vehicle is stationary.

Digitised area

The navigation CD provided contains a digitised street map. Motorways, federal and regional roads, as well as district roads are detailed in this street map. Larger cities and boroughs are completely covered. The regional and unclassified roads or access roads and the town centre for smaller towns and boroughs are included.

One way streets, pedestrian zones, turn bans and other traffic regulations are taken into account as far as possible. There may be discrepancies between the data on the navigation CD and the actual local situation, due to permanent changes to road systems and their traffic regulations.

To use dynamic navigation and the functions described below, TMC must be switched on, as described under "Switching TMC on/off" on page 122.

When any route recalculations are made with active dynamic route guidance, the navigation system may request the Navigation CD (if the Navigation CD is not already inserted).

What is dynamic route guidance?

Dynamic route guidance is used to calculate the route, taking current traffic announcements into account.

The traffic announcements are transmitted by a TMC radio station in addition to the radio programme and are received and analysed by the navigation system. There is no charge for receiving traffic announcements.

Note: Traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations, therefore we cannot accept any responsibility for the completeness and correctness of the announcements

Navigation operation

Dynamic route guidance

Dynamic route guidance can be started by selecting START-DYN. R. in the route menu.

If dynamic route guidance has been activated, a continuous check is made for the presence of relevant announcements for the selected route. The route is then calculated using the "fast route" option, while taking into account current traffic announcements. If the check determines that a traffic announcement is relevant for the route guidance, then a new route to the destination is calculated automatically by the unit. NEW ROUTE appears on the display. In addition, there is a voice announcement "The route is being recalculated due to current traffic announcements", it is displayed inversely.

Note: If no TMC station was found, then FOR THE TIME BEING TMC RECEPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE is displayed. After a short time, the unit switches back to the route guidance display. If a TMC station still cannot be found after 10 minutes, FOR THE TIME BEING TMC RECEPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE displayed, accompanied by a brief signal tone.

Your navigation system can receive TMC information, whether a TMC station is selected or not. However, in order to guarantee optimal reception of TMC information, we recommend the selection of a TMC station. During radio operation (FM), a selected TMC station can be recognised by the abbreviation TMC (see page 123).

Displaying traffic information

Current traffic announcements can be displayed in plain text. There are several options for requesting current traffic information.

Traffic information can be requested via the multifunction buttons and in the route guidance display and, in the case of inactive route guidance, via the multifunction button in the information menu.

Note: Since information transmitted via radio text display varies constantly, we recommend tuning in the radio text only when the vehicle is stationary to avoid unnecessary distraction for the driver. This is a necessary precaution for accident prevention.

Traffic Programme (TP)

If an RDS diversity transmitter transmits TP announcements, it is possible to interrupt CD, CDC/AUX, MW, LW or SW operation or the mute function and to switch through the transmitted TP announcement. Moreover, you can listen to one FM station while having TP announcements switched through that are transmitted by another FM station.

The functionality of the traffic programme functions depends on the status of the TMC setting - TMC switched on/off ("Switching TMC on/off" auf Seite 122)

When TMC is switched off:

- There are two ways to select a TP transmitter:

• automatic tracking
• direct programming

Automatic tracking always uses the FM station currently being received as the TP transmitter. If the selected FM station has poor reception quality or cannot function as a TP transmitter, the unit applies specified criteria to search for a new TP transmitter.

Direct programming enables a TP transmitter to be programmed that is not the FM station being received. For example, one FM station can be received while TP announcements transmitted by another FM station are switched through.

If the programmed TP transmitter reception is poor, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the programmed TP transmitter is receivable.

Radio mode When TMC is switched on: • With TMC, the unit is capable of selecting a suitable traffic programme transmitter automatically. If possible, a TMC station is selected as the traffic programme transmitter. The selected TMC station usually offers the best traffic information for the region in which you are travelling. If no TMC station is available, the traffic programme transmitter with the strongest signal is selected. If an RDS transmitter is equipped with a traffic programme, this is indicated on the display by TP. An inverse TP appears on the display to indicate that the traffic programme is active. Activating/quitting the TP menu Activating: Press TP (traffic announcements cannot be transmitted). Press the multifunction button. Quitting: Press TP or the TP menu will be automatically terminated after 8 seconds without actuation.

GAL (Gal) setting

The GAL is a car radio control circuit, which automatically adjusts the car radio volume according to vehicle speed. This results in compensation of the driving noise produced at higher speeds.

Request the user menu. Press the Multifunction button. Using the SELECT control select either 0 or +15.

With the GAL setting, the start of volume adjustment can be specified according to vehicle speed.

The setting is stored automatically.

Explanation:

- 0 - no volume increase

• +1 - volume is increased at low speed
• +15 - volume is increased at a higher speed

Telephone mute characteristics (Tel)

If a telephone system with handsfree unit is installed in the vehicle, the telephone conversation can be conducted via the car radio system. Thus, installation of the additional loudspeaker which is normally required is not necessary. However, the signal cables (AF - telephone input and earth - telephone input) must be connected to the car radio (see page 140).

For selection, request user menu. By pressing the multifunction button Select either audio signal or mute.

The setting is stored automatically.

Three different reception optimisation settings can be selected in order to suppress reception-dependent interference and reflections.

Request the user menu. By pressing the multifunction button M/S select either Stereo, Mono or Auto.

• Auto - Setting for normal operation - i.e., the system switches from stereo to mono and back depending upon reception location (provides the optimum setting for almost all reception areas).

• Mono - Setting for reception conditions in which reflections constantly occur - i.e., the unit is set constantly to mono.

The setting is effective immediately and is also retained on switching off.

Setting navigation announcements (Nav)

With this function you can select how you wish to hear navigation announcements.

• only - The audio source currently being listened to is switched off and only navigation announcements are heard.
• mixed - The volume level of the audio source currently being listened to is decreased. The navigation announcement is set to the same volume level as the previously heard audio source but still adjustable within a range of +/-6 dB. If the audio source volume is then changed, the navigation announcement volume is adjusted accordingly.
• independ - The audio source being listened to and the navigation announcement can be set to various levels.

For selection, request user menu. Using the multifunction button Select either only, mixed or independ.

The setting is stored automatically.

General instructions

RDS SYSTEM

This car radio is capable of receiving RDS signals (RDS = Radio Data System) in the VIIF range. RDS is a technique which enables the transmission of inaudible additional information in the VIIF broadcasting range. This means that the transmitter broadcasts information which can be evaluated by the car radio.

DAS Seek Qual. plane

In the DAS Seek Qual. plane, all receivable and identifiable RDS programmes are arranged in a list according to quality. The dynamic autostore, search and scan search functions fall back upon this list.

DAS Seek Name plane

In the DAS Seek Name plane, all receivable and identifiable RDS programmes are alphabetically arranged in a list according to name. The dynamic autostore, search and scan search functions fall back upon this list.

Stations RDS plane

In the Stations RDS plane, only identified RDS stations can be stored. The unit constantly switches to the best receivable transmission frequency for the station. During the search on Stations RDS the unit only stops at identifiable stations.

Stations Fix plane

In the Stations Fix plane, frequencies can be assigned to the station buttons. RDS evaluation does not take place. The search on Stations Fix is applicable to FM manual tuning (page 117).
