Introduction
General information
The Infotainment system DVD 800 provides you with state-of-the-art in-car infotainment.
For the FM and AM wavebands the radio is equipped with twelve automatically assignable channel presets. Furthermore, 36 channels can be allocated manually (waveband-independent).
Using RDS-TMC you also always have the latest information on the current traffic situation.
The integrated audio player will entertain you with audio CDs and MP3 CDs, as well as with MP3 DVDs.
Furthermore, you can connect external data storage devices (e.g. iPod, MP3 player or USB stick) or a portable player to the Infotainment system as further audio sources.
The digital sound processor provides you with several preset equalizer modes for sound optimisation.
The navigation system with dynamic route planning will guide you reliably to your destination, and if desired will automatically avoid traffic jams or other traffic problems.
Optionally, the Infotainment system can be operated using a steering wheel remote control and a multifunction unit between the front seats.
In addition the Infotainment system can be equipped with a mobile phone portal.
The well thought-out design of the control elements, the clear displays and a large multifunction knob enable you to control the system easily and intuitively.

Important information for operation and traffic safety
Theft protection
The Infotainment system is equipped with an electronic security system for the purpose of theft protection.
The Infotainment system therefore functions only in your vehicle and is worthless for a thief.
9 Warning
The usage of the navigation system does not release the driver from the responsibility for a correct, vigilant attitude in road traffic. The related traffic regulations must always be followed.
The Infotainment system has to be used so that the vehicle can be steered safely at all times. If in doubt stop your vehicle and operate the Infotainment system while the vehicle is stationary.
9 Warning
Only make entries (e.g. addresses) with the vehicle stationary.
If a navigation instruction should contradict traffic regulations, the traffic regulations always apply.
In some areas one-way streets and other roads and entrances (e.g. pedestrian zones) that you are not allowed to turn into are not marked on the map. In such areas the Infotainment system will issue a warning that must be accepted. Here you must pay particular attention to one-way streets, roads and entrances that you are not allowed to drive into.
