Attention!

Only use this system when it is safe to do so. It is more important to keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.

Due to constantly changing traffic conditions, we unfortunately cannot guarantee 100 % precision under all circumstances.

Attention !

N’utilisez le système que si vous ne mettez pas en danger votre vie ou celle des autres usagers de la route. Il est plus important de surveiller le trafic routier et d’avoir les mains sur le volant que de lire les informations apparaissant sur l’écran.

Étant donné que le sens de circulation a pu être changé entre temps, nous ne pouvons pas vous garantir une exactitude à 100 % des indications données.

Achtung!

Benutzen Sie das System nur, wenn die Sicherheit es zuläßt. Es ist wichtiger, auf den Verkehr zu achten und die Hände am Lenkrad zu lassen.

Aufgrund sich ständig ändernder Verkehrsführungen kann leider keine 100 %ige Genauigkeit unter allen Umständen gewährleistet werden.

Belangrijk!

Gebruik het systeem uitsluitend, als de veiligheid het toelaat. Het is belangrijker om op het verkeer te letten en de handen aan het stuur te houden.

Op grond van voortdurend veranderende verkeerssituaties kan helaas geen 100 % nauwkeurigheid onder alle omstandigheden worden gegarandeerd.

Attenzione!

Usare questo sistema solo se il traffico lo ammette. E´ importante tenere d´occhio la strada e le mani sul volante.

A causa dei cambiamenti continui della viabilità non si può garantire una precisione assoluta in tutte le circostanze.

¡Atención!

Utilice el sistema sólo si lo permite el nivel de seguridad. Es más importante atender al tráfico y mantener las manos en el volante.

Debido a que las rutas cambian constantemente, lamentamos no poder garantizar un 100 % de exactitud en cualquier ocasión.

Observera!

Använd systemet bara när säkerheten tillåter. Det är viktigare att iaktta vad som händer i trafiken och hålla händerna på ratten.

På grund av den ständigt förändrade trafiksituationen kan ingen garanti för 100%:ig noggrannhet under alla omständigheter lämnas.

Vigtigt!

Brug systemet kun, når De ikke bringer andre eller sig selv i fare. Vær opmærksom på trafikken, og hold hænderne på rattet.

Pga. løbende ændringer i vejnettet kan der ikke opnås 100% overensstemmelse mellem det digitale vejkort og den aktuelle trafiksituation.

Safety instructions

The use of the navigation system by no means relieves the driver of his/her

responsibilities. The highway code must always be observed. Always observe the current traffic situation.

The applicable traffic regulations and the prevailing traffic situation always take

precedence over the instructions issued by the navigation system if they contradict one another.

For traffic safety reasons, use the navigation system menus only before starting a

journey or when the vehicle is stationary.

In certain areas, one-way streets, turn off and entry prohibitions (e.g. pedestrian zones)

are not recorded. In areas such as these the navigation system will issue a warning. Pay particular attention to one-way streets, turn off and entry restrictions.

The navigation 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.

The current legal road traffic speed limit always takes priority over the values stored

on the data CD. 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. Always observe the relevant legal speed limits and traffic regulations. The vehicle speedometer must always be given priority for display of the vehicle speed.

Do not rely exclusively on the navigation system when attempting to locate an emergency service (hospital, 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.

NEW OPERATING SOFTWARE MO 3264

New functions

The new operating software for your navigation system provides a number of new or expanded functions:

Improved guidance

■

Improved visual and audible turn-off prompts thanks to additional symbols and optimised voice-output characteristics.

Improved “Alternative route”

■

The settings range for planning an alterative route has been improved from only 10 km to up to 50 km.

Convenient resumption of guidance

■

Following a short stopover (ignition off) the navigation system can continue the previous guidance upon request.

Additional route criteria “Avoid ferry” and “Avoid tunnel”

■

In addition to the previously available route criteria, “No toll road”, ferries and tunnels can be deliberately avoided during route planning.

Availability of this function depends on the map data used. If route planning is not

✎

possible without the selected exceptions, toll roads, ferries and tunnels are included in route planning.

■ Support of compressed map data

As of version 2004/02, the map and travel info content is compressed on the map CDs in order to make further useful C-IQ content available to you.

The new map CDs can then only be read using this operating software version or

✎

higher.

■ Automatic mode for dynamic route planning

Fully automatic dynamic route planning allows you to concentrate on what is important. The navigation system plans the route, taking into account the current traffic situation without further notice.

Activate the “Automatic” option in the “Settings –> Dyn. route sett.” menu.

☞

When Automatic mode is activated, no information is displayed regarding present

✎

traffic problems. The route is always calculated based on the current traffic situation received via TMC.

Automatic mode is switched off in the factory settings.

✎

✎

status field of the guidance screen.

If no speed limit value is included on the map CD for the current route section or if

✎

there is no speed limit, “--- km/h” is displayed in the guidance screen.

Availability of the legal speed limit depends on the map CD used and on the

✎

relevant country.

WARNING: No responsibility is accepted for the correctness of the speed limit

information provided by the navigation system; it may not always reflect the currently valid regulations. Always observe the applicable legal speed limits and traffic regulations. The vehicle speedometer must always be given priority for display of the vehicle speed.

■ Speed warnings

The navigation system offers two different options for speed warnings, provided the map CD inserted supports this function:

The previously available warning, which can be set manually to a fixed speed value.

–

A visual and audible warning when reaching or exceeding the legal speed limits for

–

the route section currently being travelled along.

The speed warnings can be activated and configured as follows:

New C-IQ functions

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 access code. Please ensure that the corresponding map CD has been inserted. For more detailed information concerning this option contact the C-IQ Service.

Enter the activation code (access code) which you obtained for your prepaid C-IQ

☞

product. For a description of code entry, refer to the operating, section “C-IQ - INTELLIGENT

✎

CONTENT ON DEMAND -> Activating content”, page 20. Select “Prepaid C-IQ” in the “C-IQ” menu.

☞

Select “Prepaid Navigation” or “Prepaid Travelinfo”, depending on the type of

☞

C-IQ content you wish to activate. The status of your prepaid content will be displayed. It indicates the number of

✎

remaining days of use. You can access a list of content for the selected category via the L symbol.

☞

The “Z” symbol will take you back to the previous menu and you can access help

✎

for the current C-IQ topic by pressing “?”. Select the product you require from the list in order to activate it for the current

☞

calendar day.

Tips for convenient operation

Cross-border guidance

■

Owing to the high data volume, the European navigation data is stored on several CD ROMs (map CDs). In order to nevertheless achieve cross-border guidance, the most important European cities and roads (Major Roads Europe) are additionally stored on the map CDs at present. In order to enable cross-border navigation, the C-IQ content must be activated for the destination and transit countries. Alternatively, route planning can be performed without activation of this feature if the route is covered by the connecting road network (Major Roads Europe). In this case, no visual and audible guidance is available after crossing the border into a deactivated country.

For continuous cross-border guidance, it is imperative that the relevant C-IQ content

✎

is activated.

The following alternative input methods requiring the map data from two or more map CDs are available for activating route planning:

Alternative 1:

Insert the map CD for the destination country. Start route planning and follow the directional arrow displayed to the next digitised road. As soon as you have reached the connecting road network, the directional arrow disappears and visual and audible guidance begins.

Alternative 2:

Insert the map CD for your current location. Start route planning. Owing to the data volume, you can only enter a destination which is covered by the connecting road network. When approaching the destination, insert the map CD for the destination country. Then enter details of the destination and start route planning again.

Please note that the connecting road network is used exclusively for route planning

✎

when the navigation CD of the actual location is not inserted.

Alternative 3:

Plan your travel route to a desired border crossing using the navigation CD ROM for your current location. After crossing the border, insert the map CD of your current location and start route planning to your destination or to the next border crossing.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Installing metal sleeve, ill 2 - 3

The computer can be mounted in a DIN radio opening of the vehicle with the supplied metal sleeve.

Please note before mounting, ill. 4:

■

To ensure access to the CD opening a free space of at least 130 mm has to be in

–

front of the navigation computer. For sufficient air circulation a free space of at least 50 mm has to be behind the

–

navigation computer. The computer must be installed horizontally. Deviations of - 10 to + 30 degrees can

–

be set in the “Mounting angle” menu (see “Initial operation”). Larger deviations may result in malfunctions.

A stable connection to the car body is necessary for the computer to function

–

correctly!

Insert metal sleeve into the DIN opening and press appropriate tags outwards with a screwdriver. Take care not to damage hidden parts in the dashboard.

Securing the computer using the mounting brackets

If installation of the navigation computer in a DIN slot is impossible or undesirable, it can be installed in alternative installation locations using the supplied mounting brackets (e.g., in the glove box, in the luggage compartment or under the seats).

For this purpose, both side-mounted catch springs must be removed from the navigation computer. The two Torx screws are required later for securing the mounting bracket.

■ Attaching mounting brackets, ill. 5

1. Position the brackets with the punched out tab at the right (or left) rear edge of the computer housing. It must be ensured that the tab fully engages with the sheet metal of the computer housing.

2. Swing the bracket forwards, applying pressure to the rear edge of the bracket so that it is flush with the computer housing.

3. Fasten the brackets to the computer housing using the existing Torx screws.

The computer can then be secured in the desired installation location using the screws supplied.

■

Suspended installation

If suspended installation is required for the computer (e.g., under the rear shelf), the mounting brackets can be attached to the computer in the reversed position.

Installing holder for the remote control

The remote control holder can either be screwed in place with the supplied angle bracket or glued onto the mounting surface with the supplied adhesive tape.

Note: Mounting temperature should be at least 15 degrees centigrade to ensure the full adhesive effect of the tape.

2. Restore perfect functioning of the electrical system (clock, onboard computer, alarm system, air bag, immobilizer, radio coding, etc.).

3. Switch on the ignition.

4. Insert map CD into the navigation computer. Please note the instructions regarding activation of C-IQ map, travel and/or traffic info, see the operating instructions, Section “C-IQ INTELLIGENT CONTENT ON DEMAND” on page 20.

5. Insert batteries (not supplied) in the battery compartment of the remote control (see user manual of the navigation system).

If an RCD 3200 active holder (accessory) is used for the remote control, the remote control also works without batteries when placed in the holder.

6. Park the car so that the GPS antenna has free “visual contact” to the sky.

7. Start the engine. The monitor display appears (user advice).

8. Confirm the user advice by pressing OK key on the remote control. The start menu appears, initialization of the navigation computer then begins (duration between 2 and 10 minutes).

Setting mounting angle

■

In order to ensure perfect functioning of the system, the computer must be adjusted to the actual installation angle (e.g., in the dashboard).

1. Select the “Mounting angle” option from the “System settings” menu.

2. Depending upon the installation, set the angle to between - 10 and + 30 degrees. The system does not differentiate between negative and positive angles. Thus, even

for a mounting angle of, e.g. - 10 degrees, set a value of “10” in the menu.

Checking the car functions

Only check safety functions when the car is standing still or driving at low speed!

Always carry out checks in open areas!

Check brake system, alarm system, lights, immobilizer, speedometer, trip computer, radio (coding) and hi-fi stereo, clock.

Checking the navigation functions

Check the following functions when the car is stationary:

Remote control (batteries inserted)

Press the keys on the remote control and check operation.

GPS reception

Enter a destination and select “Guidance”. Call up the “GPS/Compass” information menu via the guidance screen (see operating instructions) and check the number of satellites. For a sufficiently exact location determination the number should be between 4 and 8.

Page 20

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Calibrating the system

For automatic calibration, perform a short test drive (approx. 10 minutes) on digitised roads. Change direction several times.

Drive through several intersections and monitor the current vehicle position in the “Car position” information menu. Once the displayed position agrees with the actual car position, calibration is complete.

Note: The system can also be calibrated without C-IQ contents activated. However, no directional information will be provided. The current vehicle location can then be checked in the emergency menu (see operating instructions, page 48).

This is a security or warning advice. It contains important information on the safe use

of your navigation system. In case of disregard of this advice the danger of material damage, injury or even death may result. Please observe this advice carefully.

ATTENTION! Important notes for safe usage

The usage of the navigation system does not exempt the driver from his

responsibilities. Pay attention to the local traffic regulations. Watching the road is more important than watching the display!

If the current traffic situation and the advice of the navigation system are in

contradiction, traffic regulations always have priority over advice given by the system.

For driving safety data entries should only be made when the car is stationary.

In some areas it is possible that not all road information is covered. Restrictions regarding entry into pedestrian precincts, driving direction of a one way street and turning restrictions are not given. In these areas the navigation system gives a warning. Always obey road signs and traffic regulations.

Important notes on the function of your navigation system

In principle, the system is functional with poor GPS reception, although the accuracy of the positioning may be impaired by poor or interrupted GPS reception or errors can occur in the determination of the position, which result in incorrect position reporting.

Start-up characteristics

vehicle are recorded by the navigation system’s sensors. The distance travelled is determined by the vehicle speedometer signal, rotary motion in curves is detected by a gyro sensor (inertial compass). The position is determined via the GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites.

The position can be calculated within a range of approx. 10 m by comparing the sensor signals with the digital map on the navigation CD.

If the vehicle is parked for longer periods of time, the satellites continue their orbit. After the ignition is switched on, it may take several minutes until the navigation system receives signals from sufficient satellites for evaluation.

During the start-up sequence, it is possible that the navigation system will report: “You are leaving the digitised area”. The navigation system assumes that the vehicle is located outside a digitised area. If other roads exist in this area, the navigation system may issue incorrect messages. The navigation system assumes that the vehicle is located on another road.

Comments

After transport of the vehicle by train or ferry, the navigation system may require a few minutes for exact positioning.

After disconnecting the vehicle battery, up to 15 minutes may be required for exact positioning. For this, the vehicle must be outdoors and the system must be switched on in order to receive transmissions from the GPS satellites.

Page 24

GENERAL INFORMATION

The digital road map

To be able to plan a route to a destination address, the navigation system not only requires the current position of the vehicle but also a digital road map containing the destination address itself and the roads leading to the destination address. This digital road map is on the map CD which you insert into the navigation computer.

Real road network Line pattern of digitized map

The road system is stored on the map CD as a line model, i.e. even large junctions have only one focal point that is approached by all roads in point-to-point fashion. Thus the navigation system indicates the distance to the turn-off point as the distance to the centre of the junction. This is why the distances indicated on main road signs may not agree with those of the navigation system. The road signs indicate the distance to the beginning of the exit.

Areas with limited road information

In some areas, not all of the information on a road is available on the map 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. Local traffic laws always take precedence over navigation system instructions. Always observe the road signs and motor vehicle traffic regulations.

Topicality of the map CD

Roughly 10 - 15% of the road system characteristics change each year. Due to these constantly changing traffic conditions (construction of new roads, traffic calming, etc.) we cannot guarantee that the digital road map will be in 100 % agreement with existing traffic conditions. We recommend that you always use the most current version of the map CD for navigation.

Delete via points not reached

Via point which you have not reached or which are no longer desirable to you must be deleted from the via point list so that the navigation system may plan the route to the next via point or to the final destination. If a not reached via point is not deleted, the system will continue to try and guide you to this via point.

Via points can be deleted in the address manager or on the “Via points” information screen, see page 46 or page 40.

Notes:

The maximum number of stored via points is 25. The via points are targeted in the order in which they are entered. For guidance to the via points, the system automatically uses the route planning

criterion for the final destination. It is possible to enter new via points en route to the final destination at any time. Once a via point has been reached (“destination reached”), it is deleted from the list

of via points. If you enter a new destination you will be asked whether you also wish to delete the

via point list. If you answer “No,” the remaining via points will be retained for the new destination address.

Via points are not stored in the list of last destinations (destination input and via point input).

Via points cannot be stored with “Store address” in the address manager.

Dynamic route planning

Unlike dynamic guidance, which provides information about traffic conditions on your route and on request about local traffic conditions, dynamic route planning takes into account the whole of the current traffic situation in a configurable area (horizon) in the vicinity of the current position of the car. If a traffic obstruction (e.g. stationary traffic) is reported via TMC for the planned route, the navigation system will analyse the information and calculate the anticipated delay.

If there is a traffic problem on the planned route, you will be informed of this by the navigation system and may decide whether the system should take a detour by changing the route in order to avoid the segment concerned or whether it would be more sensible just to drive through the problem. You should base your decision on the anticipated delay calculated by the system.

The delay is calculated by the navigation system on the basis of the data

✎

transmitted by the TMC station, which may not actually reflect the current situation.

Dynamic route planning can be activated in the “Route selection” menu. See page 38. In addition, you may select criteria on which dynamic route planning should be based

in the “Settings – Dyn. route sett.” menu. See page 50.

Page 50

ALTERNATIVE ROUTE

During guidance, you can cause the navigation system to plan an alternative route. Use this function if, for example, you want to avoid stationary traffic not reported via TMC or if you wish to plan an alternative route.

The alternative route will be calculated for a selectable distance from the current position of the car.

MAP CDs

Notes on map CDs

The navigation system is based on a C-IQ database, which is stored on a CD in encrypted format. The CD contains map data for navigation as well as travel and traffic information (TMC) for dynamic route planning. You can customise your navigation package by activating specific components of the database.

For further information see “C-IQ - INTELLIGENT CONTENT ON DEMAND”, see page 20.

Changing the map CD

If the ignition is switched on and the red power LED lights up permanently:

Press the W key on the navigation computer.

☞

The CD is ejected.

✎

If the ignition is switched off and if the power LED flashes:

Press the W key.

☞

Wait for at least 10 seconds until the LED stops flashing.

☞

Press the W key again.

☞

The CD is ejected.

✎

Take out the CD and gently insert the new map CD with the printed side facing up

☞

until it is retracted. The system needs a few seconds for initialisation after changing the map CD.

✎

Notes:

Only use genuine VDO Dayton C-IQ map CDs. These map CDs are exclusively designed for use with the VDO Dayton Navigation System and they are only readable by a VDO Dayton Navigation System.

The CD player of the navigation system does not play any other CDs (i.e. Audio CDs). Always store map CDs in their protective cases. Always make sure that the CD you insert is clean and dry. If the last entered destination address is not (or only partly) on the map CD you

inserted, the whole address (or only the not existing part) is deleted.

MAINTENANCE & CARE

Replacing batteries of the remote control

You have to replace the batteries of the remote control, if you use the remote control outside of its holder and the navigation system does no longer respond to key presses.

Open the battery compartment on the back of the

☞

remote control. Remove the discharged batteries.

☞

Insert two new LR03 type (Size AAA) batteries. Pay

☞

attention to correct polarity (marked in the compartment).

Close the battery compartment.

☞

Notes:

In many countries exhausted batteries may not be disposed of with your household waste. Please determine how to dispose of exhausted batteries according to local regulations.

Only use leak-proof batteries. Battery leakage can cause damage to the remote control or to your car.

Never expose the remote control to direct sunlight or extreme heat. The batteries are discharged and the risk of leakage is increased.

If you permanently use your remote control in the active holder RCD 3200 (accessory), we recommend that you remove the batteries from the remote control.

Cleaning of the remote control and the monitor

Do not use lighter fluid, methyl alcohol or other solvents for cleaning. Only use a damp cloth.

Loading software updates

In order to extend the range of functions, you can load software updates from a system software CD, provided that these are available for your system:

Switch on the ignition and confirm the safety notification.

☞

Remove the map CD from the navigation computer and insert the software update

☞

CD. A security check appears. Confirm the inquiry with “Yes” if you wish to overwrite

☞

the software which is loaded on the system. The new operating software is now loaded automatically. Loading progress is

indicated by a bar.

On no account must the ignition be switched off during the loading procedure, even if

no displays appear on the monitor for a while.

After successful loading, you will be prompted to remove the software update CD

and to re-insert the map CD. Please confirm the completion of the loading procedure with “OK”.

☞

The system is subsequently re-started with the new operating software.

TROUBLESHOOTING

There may be times when you suspect that your navigation system is not functioning as you expect it to. Before calling for service please read the operating instructions and check the following list. You may find that an apparent malfunction can easily be rectified.

Symptoms Possible cause / Remedy

System does not start. Nothing on the display.

After some time of normal operation, the system switches off.

System does not react on key presses when the remote control is not in its holder.

System reacts very slowly to data entries or calculates very slowly.

The number of satellites in the “GPS/Compass” information menu is 0.

Guidance advice not audible. • Make sure that the volume is not set to minimum.

Display shows “Please insert CD” or “Please insert correct CD”

Map CD is ejected unintentionally without pressing the W key.

Not possible to store address in the address book.

• Operation of the system is resumed as soon as the temperature returns to a normal level.

Batteries are empty.

• Replace the batteries. With active Holder RCD 3200:

• Put the remote control into the holder. You are in a very densely digitized area. The navigation system has

to read a large amount of data from the CD-ROM.

• Make sure the GPS aerial is not covered by any objects.

• Drive outdoors, if you are in a garage, a car park or a tunnel.

• Make sure that the voice messages are activated in the “System

settings – Volume” menu (“¦: On” ).

• Make sure that an appropriate CD is inserted with the printed side facing up in the navigation computer.

The CD might be dirty.

• Try to clean the CD with a special CD cleaning fluid. Address book is full.

• Delete one or more entries no longer required.

• If you frequently discover greater inaccuracy, contact an

authorized service centre. The navigation system indicates the distance to the next turn as the

distance to the centre of the junction (especially for extensive junctions or crossroads).

Bad GPS reception for a longer period of time (for example caused by interference). When sufficient GPS reception is resumed the position is corrected automatically.

• If necessary wait a few minutes.
