Infotainment system

Navigation

Introduction

Fig. 144

Schematic representation: Navigation

view

A global satellite system determines the cur-
rent position of the vehicle and the sensors
mounted on the vehicle analyse the routes
taken. All measured values and possible traf-
fic events are compared with the available
maps to allow optimal navigation to the des-
tination.

Navigation announcements and graphic rep-
resentations will guide you to your destina-
tion.

Navigation management is carried out on the
screen.

Depending on the country, some functions of
the infotainment system will not be available

on the screen when travelling above a certain
speed. It is not a malfunction, but is due to
compliance with legislation.

Navigation announcements

Navigation announcements are acoustic indi-
cations for driving referred to the current
route.

The type and frequency of navigation an-
nouncements depend on the driving situation,
for example, starting the guide to the destina-
tion, driving on the motorway or on a round-
about and the settings.

If the exact destination cannot be reached
because, for example, it is in a non-digitised
area, indications relating to the address and
the distance to the destination are displayed
on the screen.

During dynamic route guidance, you will re-
ceive information about reported traffic con-
gestion on the route. An additional navigation
announcement is provided if the route is re-
calculated due to traffic congestion.

While a navigation announcement is playing,
its volume can be adjusted. The following
navigation announcements provided will be
played with the newly adjusted volume.

194

Infotainment operation

Limitations during navigation

If the infotainment system cannot receive da-
ta from GPS satellites, for example, in a tunnel
or in an underground garage, navigation con-
tinues using the vehicle's sensors.

In areas that are not digitised or are only par-
tially digitised on the infotainment memory,
the infotainment system will still attempt to
provide route guidance.

In the case of missing or incomplete naviga-
tion data, it may not be possible to determine
the exact position of the vehicle. This may
mean that navigation is not as precise as usu-
al.

Roads and streets are subject to constant
change (e.g. new roads, road works, roads
closed to traffic, changes to street names
and building numbers). If the navigation data
is obsolete, this may lead to errors or inaccur-
acies during the route guidance.

To allow an optimal view, you can also man-
age the navigation map with additional finger
movements.

Learn usage pattern

When the vehicle is in motion, navigation
saves routes and destinations used to auto-
matically generate destination proposals.
Destinations are learned based on the time of
day and the day of the week.

Navigation can propose up to 5 routes at the
same time. The proposed routes may be dif-
ferent from the routes of the normal route
guidance.

If one of the proposed destinations is selec-
ted, the guide to that destination is started.

The route guidance follows the selected route
until the vehicle deviates from it. In that case,
the route is recalculated and takes you back
along the most direct path to the initially se-
lected destination.

Important traffic jams are taken into account
in the route guidance, and are avoided if al-
ternative routes are available, provided navi-
gation has such data.

You can activate and deactivate the function
whenever you want.

Infotainment operation

Telephone interface

Introduction

Fig. 145

Schematic representation: Phone view

You can use the telephone interface to con-
nect your mobile to the infotainment system
and operate phone functions through it. The
sound is played through the vehicle's speak-
ers.

You can connect up to two mobile phone de-
vices simultaneously to the infotainment sys-
tem.

High speeds, poor weather or road conditions
and a noisy ambience (even outside of the
vehicle), as well as the quality of reception
can all affect the quality of a telephone con-
versation in the vehicle.

Note

●

As a general rule, pairing a device (for ex-

ample, a mobile phone device) is only nec-
essary once. You can restore the device
connection via Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi with the
infotainment system whenever you want
without having to pair the device again.

●

The availability of some telephone func-

tions will depend on the mobile phone con-
nected to the infotainment system.

Places with special regulations

Switch off the mobile telephone and the tele-
phone interface in places with a risk of explo-
sion. These places are not always clearly
marked. They include, for example:

●

The vicinity of chemical pipelines and

tanks.

●

The lower decks of boats and ferries.

●

In the proximity of vehicles that run on liq-

uefied gas (such as propane or butane).

●

Places where the air is laden with chemi-

cals or particles such as flour, dust or metal
powder.

●

All other places where the vehicle engine or

telephone must be switched off.

WARNING

Switch off the mobile phone in areas with a
risk of explosion!

Note

In areas where special regulations apply or
the use of mobile phones is forbidden, it
must be switched off at all times. The radi-
ation produced by the mobile phone when
switched on may interfere with sensitive
technical and medical equipment, possibly
resulting in malfunction or damage to the
equipment.

face, there must be at least one mobile
phone device

connected

to the infotainment

system. If there are several mobile phone de-
vices connected to the infotainment system,
you can switch between active and passive
connections. To use the telephone interface
with the desired mobile phone device, estab-
lish the active connection with the infotain-
ment system.

Difference between connection types

Primary

The mobile phone device is paired and
connected. The functions of the tele-
phone interface are performed with the
data of said mobile phone device.

Secon-

dary

connected. Calls can be managed but

the phone book, messages or other

functions will not be active.

Paired mobile phone devices are stored in the
infotainment system, even if they are not cur-
rently connected.

For each of the paired mobile phone devices
an individual user profile is automatically cre-
ated. In the user profile, data from the mobile
phone device is stored, for example, contact
details or settings. A maximum of four user
profiles can be saved in the infotainment sys-
tem at the same time.

WARNING

If you perform the pairing while driving, it
could cause an accident or injury.

●

Perform pairing only with the vehicle at a

standstill.
