WARNING

Driving on today's roads demands the full attention of the driver at all times. Driver distrac-
tion causes accidents, collisions and serious personal injury!

Never let yourself be distracted when setting, adjusting, or using the Infotainment System,

when using your mobile phone, or when operating the mobile phone controls.

Always drive attentively and responsibly. Use the Infotainment system, your mobile

phone, and the mobile phone controls only if road, traffic, and weather conditions permit and
you will not be distracted from your driving.

If you cannot use the Infotainment System, your mobile phone, or the mobile phone con-

trols safely while driving, wait until later or find a safe spot where you can pull off the road
and park the vehicle.

Always set sound volume levels so that you can clearly hear horns, sirens, and other

warning sounds outside the vehicle.

the WARNINGS

A user profile is automatically created when a mobile phone is paired with the Infotainment System for
the first time or a SIM card is inserted. Telephone directory entries are loaded and displayed in the

Directory menu. The mobile phone or the SIM card is linked uniquely to the stored user profile.

Navigation destinations and directory entries, which are created manually while a user profile is active,
are only assigned to that user profile and are only displayed when the corresponding mobile phone or
SIM card is connected.

When the mobile phone or SIM card are connected to the unit again, the user profile is reloaded and
the directory entries are displayed in the Directory menu.

Depending on the settings, only the directory entries for the loaded user profile are displayed in the

Directory menu.

The directory is updated from the connected mobile phone on a regular basis. The update can also be
started manually ( Import phone book ).

If you want a directory entry to also be displayed in the directory without a user profile being loaded,
open the directory entry for editing and clear the check box in the

Private contact function key

User profiles can be deleted and renamed

Directory entries with stored address data (postal address) can be converted into navigation

destinations for route guidance

There is no management and usage of user profiles in units without mobile phone package. All

entries in the directory are currently accessible to all users if they are not deleted manually. Directory
entries can be deleted individually from the directory or together using the factory settings
