GENERAL INFORMATION

Explanation of symbols

The following symbols are used in this manual:

This symbol is used to indicate safety instructions and warnings.

!

These contain important information for the safe use of the unit.
Failure to observe this information may result in a risk of damage
or injury. Therefore, please observe this information with
particular care.

Identifies an action to be performed.

u

Identifies useful tips and information for the operation of the

t

system.

•

Text in quotation marks identifies a screen menu option.

“

For your safety!

The use of the navigation system by no means relieves the driver of

!

his/her responsibilities. Always observe the applicable traffic regulations

and take the current traffic conditions into consideration. You always

have priority over the information provided by the navigation system if

the actual traffic situation and the information from the navigation

system conflict.

!

The system does not take the relative safety of the suggested routes

into consideration. Road blocks, building sites, height or weight

restrictions, traffic or weather conditions or other influences which

affect the route safety or travel time are not taken into consideration

for the suggested routes. Use your own discretion in order to decide on

the suitability of the suggested routes. Use the “Alternative Route”

function to receive better routing suggestions, or simply follow your

preferred route and the automatic routing recalculation will plan the

route for the remainder of your journey.

!

In the interests of road safety, only perform inputs to the navigation

system and the phone prior to commencing your journey or when the

vehicle is stationary.

4

GENERAL INFORMATION

The current statutory speed limit on the road always takes priority over

!

the values stored on the data CD/DVD. It is impossible to provide an

assurance that the speed values of the navigation system will always

match those of the current traffic regulations in every situation.

In certain areas one-way streets, turn off and entry restrictions (e.g. to

!

pedestrian zones) have not been surveyed. In areas such as these the

navigation system will issue a warning. Pay particular attention to

one-way streets, turn off and entry restrictions.

Please make certain that all persons using your multimedia system have

!

access to this manual, and that they read the instructions and suggestions

for the use of the system prior to using it.

If your screen is installed on a flexible support, adjust it so that you can

!

see the screen contents quickly and easily, and reflections and dazzle or

glare are avoided. Find a suitable spot to stop the vehicle prior to

performing adjustments.

If your monitor is installed on a fixed support, check that your dealer

!

has installed it in accordance with the above recommendations. The

screen must not be installed in a position where it obstructs the view of

any items necessary for the safe operation of the vehicle (e.g. road,

mirrors, instruments, surroundings). In addition, the monitor may not

be installed within deployment range of the airbag.

!

Only look at the monitor if it is safe to do so. Find a suitable place to

stop should you need to look at the screen for a longer period of time.

!

Always store the remote control in a safe place.

!

The values displayed on the system’s “Trip computer” giving the current

speed, driving time and the elapsed distance, are calculated values.

Accuracy cannot always be guaranteed. In the case of speed, the vehicle

speedometer must always be given priority.

!

Do not rely exclusively on the navigation system when attempting to

locate an emergency service (police, fire service, etc.). It cannot be

guaranteed that all available emergency services in your vicinity are

stored in the database. Use your own discretion and abilities to secure

help in such situations.

!

Making a phone call while driving can greatly reduce your level of

awareness and distract you from the traffic situation. In order to avoid

endangering the occupants and other road users, the driver should not

make phone calls while driving. Observe the local regulations relating

to making phone calls in the vehicle.

5

GENERAL INFORMATION

Switch off the telephone at petrol stations, chemical plants, fuel depots

!

or similar facilities, or leave it switched off.

Operation of the telephone can cause malfunction of medical

!

equipment in the vicinity of the GSM antenna, such as pacemakers or

hearing aids.

Do not touch the GSM antenna during a call.

!

Important – the correct system software!

As of spring 2004 software version MO 5595 will be available for your
navigation system. This version must be loaded onto your system if you
wish to use the map CD/DVD 2004/2. If your system does not show the
correct version, please contact your dealer or the C-IQ Service Centre
(00800 99 33 33 33). To find out which version of the software is installed
on your system proceed as follows:

Select “System config.” under “Settings”, and press the OK key.

u

Now select “Configuration”, and press the OK key. Now select the

u

“SW Number:” option. It must be 0950 or higher.

Maintenance and care

Do not use cleaning fluid, alcohol or other solvents. A damp cloth is best
suited.

Functions of your navigation system

By buying this Multimedia System you have purchased a
high-performance instrument which has been designed to assist drivers in
daily traffic. Simply enter the destination prior to setting off, activate
“Guidance” and you are ready to go. The navigation system will provide
driving instructions in audible and visual form. With the mobile phone
connected, you increase the safety and ease with which calls can be made
from within the vehicle. The system is simple to use, because of the small
number of operating elements and its clear menu structure.

Range of functions

Some of the functions described in this manual are only to be used in
conjunction with optional accessories. It may also be that use cannot be
made of certain functions in some countries because the data has not
been surveyed. Due to the large range of functions a conscious decision
was taken not to allow all the settings to be used in any combination in
the interests of ensuring ease of use and functionality.

6

GENERAL INFORMATION

System expansion

In conjunction with a TMC expansion, the system will show the current
traffic situation along your route, and will guide you around road
obstructions if desired. Numerous system expansions are available to
upgrade to an information and entertainment system.

Distance indications

On main roads, the distances to exits indicated by the system deviate from
those on road signs. The road signs on main roads refer to the start of the
exit, while the navigation system always indicates the distance to the end
of the slip road. This is the point where the driving lanes fork (separate).

Operating restrictions (country-specific)

If a symbol depicting a crossed out hand appears in the bottom status line
it means that only limited operating options are available whilst driving.
Whether or not this function is activated will depend upon the prevailing
national regulations.

GPS reception

The system has been designed to remain operational even when there is
poor GPS reception. However, positional accuracy may be impaired.

Start-up characteristics

If the vehicle has been parked for some time, the satellites will have
continued on their orbits. As a result, once the ignition has been switched
on, it may take several minutes before a sufficient number of satellites
are being received and the system can start analysing their signals.
Adequate reception (three-dimensional position) is indicated by the black
satellite symbol on the display. The satellite symbol remains red if GPS
reception is inadequate.

During the start-up process, the navigation system may report the
message: “Please proceed to the planned route”. The system assumes that
the vehicle is located off a stored road. If other roads exist in this area,
the navigation system may issue incorrect messages. The system assumes
that the vehicle is located on a different road.

Automatic route re-calculation

If you do not follow the instructions of the system, the system will
automatically plan a new route.

7

GENERAL INFORMATION

Areas with limited road information

In some areas, not all road information may be available on the map
DVD/CD. Thus, for example, turn-off prohibitions, information on the
direction of travel in a one-way street or prohibited entry into a
pedestrian zone may be missing. The navigation system will display a
warning if you drive into such an area.

Information concerning the functions of the navigation system can be

t

found on the internet at www.vdodayton.de.

Switching on / off

The multimedia system is switched on and off along with the ignition. If
the system was not switched to stand-by prior to switching off, a title
screen will be displayed. This is followed by information on how to
operate the system. Confirm this by pressing the OK key. After a few
seconds, the system will be functional.

Remote control

If you wish to use the remote control outside the cradle, batteries will be
required and these will have to be replaced if the system no longer
responds when the buttons are pressed or if the battery symbol appears
in the status line. Please remember that the remote control must not be
exposed to direct sunlight if batteries have been inserted. The system can
always be used whenever the remote control is inside its wired cradle; for
this no batteries are required.

Some buttons and keys have two functions, which are activated
respectively either by pressing them briefly for less than a second or by
pressing and holding them down for more than a second.

Depending on the scope of supply, various remote controls might be
used. Full functionality can only be ensured if the correct remote control
is activated. To do this, select “Remote control” under “Settings” and
activate the desired remote control by pressing the OK key.

Prepaid C-IQ

You can purchase country maps for navigation and/or travel info products
(e.g. hotel and restaurant guides) at a flat rate and in advance for use on
a daily basis, but without having to specify the actual days concerned.
This means that you can always have the correct data at your fingertips
for making short trips abroad or taking a weekend trip. With the
“prepaid” service the information must be activated on the calendar day
on which it is to be used. Once you have purchased your prepaid days
from the C-IQ Service (www.C-IQ.net or 00800 99 33 33 33) they can be
activated in the navigation system in the normal manner by means of an

The route criteria can also be changed in the “Navigation” menu under

t

“Route criteria”.

Dynamic route

With the integration of the TMC traffic information (see also chapter TMC

system which influence the automatic detour of road obstructions.
Settings in the “Dynamic route” menu can only be made if the “Traffic
Info” option under “Route criteria” has been activated.

•

Re-routing level defines whether or not the system will plan a detour.

Numerous factors are integrated into the decision process. These

include, for example, the conditions on the alternate route, such as the

road category or the number of townships to be driven through. The

probability of high traffic density on the alternate route also plays a

part. Five levels are available. The lowest level means that, depending

on the conditions, the original route with the stationary traffic can

often be given preference. If the highest level is selected, an alternate

route is always planned.

•

Traffic horizon: the maximum distance that will be considered for a

detour suggestion around road obstructions.

•

Entire delay: takes into account the maximum delay the driver will

accept before he is willing to receive a detour suggestion.

•

bars (see under Screen configuration in this chapter).

The current status can be seen from the colour of the symbol for the
speed limit depending on the values set.

•

Guidance in non-digitised areas

If the specified destination is not located on a digitised road, the
directions will take you to the position (linear distance) closest to the
destination. The display shows the note “The destination is outside the
digitised map area”. In all display modes, rather than being provided as
directions, guidance takes the form of an arrow which points to the
destination.

Guidance in partly digitised areas

In rural areas and in small townships not all the streets may be stored on
the map DVD/CD. Whenever you leave a digitised road, the guidance
screen changes. The system automatically switches from the guidance or
the split screen display to the map display.

Instead of the usual guidance information, an arrow which points in the
direction of the destination is now shown at the top right. The distance
(linear distance) to the destination is shown underneath. This can also
occur in areas with complete digitisation, as not all parking areas are
digitised, for example.

Audible messages

As soon as guidance is activated, acoustic routing information is provided
in addition to the symbols on the guidance screens. You didn’t hear the
information?

u Press the { or VOICE button on the remote control. The last

direction is repeated and/or updated driving directions are
provided.

If the symbol l is shown in the status line, the audible information is

switched off. It can be switched on again using the “Settings” menu or
also by pressing button + or - on the remote control.

Plan Alternative Route

During guidance it is possible for the navigation system to plan an
alternative route to cover a distance which you can select. Use this
function, e.g. if you wish to avoid stationary traffic, or if you do not agree
with the current routing. The alternative route will be calculated for the
specified distance from the vehicle’s current location.

u

Press the ALT-R button. The system now displays the ”Distance”
for which the alternative route is to be planned. This can be set
from 1 to 50 km.

TMC traffic information

Your Navigation System processes TMC traffic information, provided a
TMC expansion, e.g. the MT 5010, is connected, and the TMC data is
supported in this region by the map DVD/CD. This is generally the case if
TMC traffic information is broadcast in a country (meaning that it can
therefore also be received) and you have a current map DVD/CD.

You have the option of adapting the TMC service to your own
requirements. Details can be found in the chapter Settings under dynamic
route, route criteria and traffic inform. Urgent traffic reports, however,
cannot be switched off. If an expansion is connected, and TMC can be
received, the TMC status is shown in the status line of the screen.

“TMC” = green TMC information is available. Alternatively

the name of the provider may be displayed.

“TMC” = black No TMC database on the CD/DVD for the region

or data not active for navigation (see C-IQ).

”T” = red Traffic information for the planned route is

available.

“T” = green Less than 50km to the road obstruction

on the planned route. Deviation is possible.

“T“ = orange Accepted or bypassed traffic jams on the

original route.

“TMC” = red TMC reception distorted/no TMC transmitter

selected.

41

NAVIGATION

Pay TMC

In some countries or regions extended TMC information might be
available for an additional charge. These Pay TMC services are supported
by your navigation system and are activated via the C-IQ service
(www.C-IQ.net or 00800 99 33 33 33). You can see from the station list in
the Info menu whether a Pay TMC station is available in your current
region. Pay TMC stations are generally identified by a coin. If you have
activated a Pay TMC service and this station is temporarily unavailable, in
the case of the TMC receiver MT 5010 the system automatically switches
to an available free station until reception is restored.

In the map display

If traffic information is available, the system will show the positions of
accidents or stationary traffic on the map. If the obstruction is relevant, it
is displayed with a red border. Otherwise it has a grey or orange border,
and may show an arrow in the direction of the obstruction.

J

For small map scales, the traffic information is displayed in summary. For
larger scales, they are displayed in detail. Road obstructions of a certain
length are displayed on smaller scales along with an indication of their
direction and length. Traffic density (slow and queuing traffic, or
stationary traffic) and the length of the obstruction are displayed by
means of arrows.

CI 3000

If a Communication Interface Module (e.g. CI 3000) is connected to the
navigation system as an extension, you can use different standard
hands-free units and current mobile phones with the system. Selected
functions of your mobile phone are then available to you in a well
laid-out and convenient manner via the monitor of your navigation
system.

If a compatible hands-free unit is connected to the Communication
Interface Module and if the cradle contains a suitable mobile phone with
SIM card and the PIN code has been entered, the Telephone option will
appear in the Start menu. The main functions of your phone are available
in this menu.

CIX 3000 Blue

Alternatively you can add the CIX 3000 Blue extension module to the CIX

3000. The CIX 3000 Blue is a Bluetooth hands-free unit. It replaces the
commercial hands-free unit and mobile phone unit cradle and allows you
to communicate while driving without the need for cables thanks to the
Bluetooth data transmission standard. You will require a compatible
Bluetooth mobile phone for this application.

At www.vdodayton.com or www.C-IQ.net and by dialling the C-IQ Service
Centre on 00800 99 33 33 33 you will find current compatibility lists for all
supported mobile phones and hands-free units.

The Bluetooth connection requires pairing or linking of your mobile
phone with the CIX 3000 Blue. You can also carry out the “pairing
process” without the navigation system. For further information please
see the CIX 3000 Blue operating instructions.

The mobile phone can only be operated directly from the phone once the
ignition has been switched off. To operate it via the monitor and remote
control, the ignition must be switched on.
