Operating safety
Introduction
Operating safety
Warning G
Any alterations made to electronic compo­nents and the software can cause malfunc­tions.
The radio, amplifier, CD changer*, satellite radio*, telephone* and navigation module are interconnected. When one of the com­ponents is not operational or has not been removed/replaced properly, the function of other components may be impaired.
This condition might seriously impair the operating safety of your vehicle.
We recommend that you have any service work on electronic components carried out only by qualified personnel.
Warning G
In order to avoid distraction which could lead to an accident, the driver should enter system settings with the vehicle at a stand­still and operate the system only when road, weather and traffic conditions permit.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mp/h (approximately 50 km/h), your car is covering a distance of 44 feet (approxima­tely 14 m) every second.
COMAND supplies you with information to help you select your route more easily and guide you conveniently and safely to your destination. For safety reasons, we encoura­ge the driver to stop the vehicle in a safe place before answering or placing a call, or consulting the COMAND screen to read na­vigational maps, instructions, or downloa­ded information.
While the navigation system provides direc­tional assistance, the driver must remain fo­cused on safe driving behavior, including attention to traffic and street signs, and should utilize the system’s audio cues while driving.
The navigation system does not supply any information on stop signs, yield signs, traffic regulations or traffic safety rules. This al­ways remains your personal responsibility when you drive. DVD maps do not cover all areas nor all routes within an area.
