NEW OPERATING SOFTWARE MO 4254
Safety instructions
The use of the navigation radio by no means relieves the driver of his/her
A
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
A
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
A
journey or when the vehicle is stationary.
In certain areas, one-way streets, turn off and entry prohibitions (e.g. pedestrian zones)
A
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
A
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
A
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.
A
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 4254
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.
Expanded Route & Sound function
■
What is meant here is destination input without a map CD. If the new destination is
within the range of the map section (corridor) stored in the main memory, it is
possible to enter a new destination without the map CD.
What is meant by “corridor” ?
The navigation system plans a route and then loads a “belt” of some kilometres
around the planned route (the corridor) as map data from the map CD into the main
memory.
Functional restrictions in corridor mode
Please note that some navigation system functions are not or only partially available
when the map CD (corridor mode) is not inserted.
In this event, the menu options appear grey (e.g. Alternative route, Route selection,
Traffic info away from the planned route).
It is only possible to load stored addresses if they are located within the corridor.
Route planning is only possible with roads located within the corridor. Even if a
destination address is located within the corridor and can be entered as a destination,
it may not be possible to plan a route to that destination. In this case, please insert the
map CD.
TMC traffic information is only available for the stored map section and with the “On
the route” option available.
Travel info and POIs can only be called up using the map CD.
Some C-IQ functions (in particular code entry) are only possible when the map CD is
inserted.
As soon as you insert the map CD, these functions are available again.
✎
Leaving the corridor
If you drive out of the corridor, e.g. do not follow the planned route, the navigation
system will attempt to guide you back into the corridor. The directional arrow and the
distance to the planned route will be displayed.
If you continue travelling away from the corridor (more than approx. 3 km), the
navigation system will display only the directional arrow and the distance to the
destination.
In this case, please insert the map CD so that the navigation system can plan a new
route to your destination.
■
Convenient resumption of guidance
Following a short stopover (ignition off) the navigation radio can continue the
previous guidance upon request.
4
NEW OPERATING SOFTWARE MO 4254
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 you noticing.
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.
✎
■ TMC traffic information independent of radio station
(with optional MT 5011 TMC receiver)
With the optionally available MT 5011 dynamic TMC receiver, you are always informed
of the current traffic situation. The MT 5011 receives the current local TMC traffic
information regardless of the radio station being listing to.
Activate the “Ext. TMC Receiver“ in the “Settings –> TMC source” menu, in
☞
order to use the TMC receiver as the source for traffic announcements.
The new setting is only active after re-starting the system.
✎
The TMC traffic announcements received by the TMC receiver are then used
✎
exclusively for navigation, regardless of the radio and Info menu settings.
Reception of a RDS-TMC station is indicated by the filled TMC symbol in the
✎
“GPS / Compass” information screen.
Selecting a TMC station:
In the navigation main menu, select “Traffic info”.
☞
Select “TMC Provider” in the “Traffic info” menu.
☞
Select the L symbol.
☞
The list of available TMC stations is displayed.
☞
Select the desired station from the list.
☞
If the selected TMC station can no longer be received, the TMC receiver switches to
✎
“Automatic” and searches for the TMC station with the strongest signal.
Select “Automatic” for the station with the best reception to be automatically
✎
selected for evaluation of the TMC data.
Every time the ignition is switched off, “Automatic” mode is activated
✎
automatically.

✎
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
A
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

have been classified by the authorities as particularly relevant to safety. Although
every care has been taken, comprehensive coverage cannot be guaranteed.
What else has changed in MO 4254?
■ MUTE
(See page 24)
No traffic announcements or navigation messages are made when muting is activated.
Should you nevertheless wish to hear traffic announcements (with TA Scan activated)
and navigation information without the radio or CD playing, simply turn the volume
to zero on the unit. The announcements and information are then output at the
preset volume (“TA volume” or “NAV volume” in the “INFORMATION” menu).
■ Entering letters / Different input methods
(See page 26)
The database allows you to enter the different parts of compound city or road names
in varying sequence.
The input methods depend on the map CD inserted. Not all map CDs support this
✎
function.
■

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.

With the new generation of our navigation radio units, you may insert
a map CD, plan your route, then insert an audio CD and the system will
still guide you to your intended destination. The navigation computer
(corridor) in its main memory. Within this corridor, the map CD does not have to be
inserted in order for the navigation to function. As soon as you leave this corridor, a
message will appear automatically, prompting you to insert the map CD so that the
navigation computer can reload the data required for a new route.
saves the road system in a defined area around the planned route
17
GENERAL INFORMATION
How does the navigation system work?
The position and movements of the 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.
Important notes on the function of your navigation radio
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
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.
18
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 Digital line model
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.
19
SAFETY
The system has the following safety functions to prevent theft:
Removable operating panel
Take the removable operating panel with you, whenever you leave the vehicle. Keep
the panel in its protective case. Always replace the operating panel before driving off.
When the front is opened, acoustic signals will sound (independent of the presence of
the removable operating panel).
Removing the operating panel
1. Open the front by pressing the release button.
2. Pull the operating panel from its metal bracket.
3. Push the metal bracket back up.
Re-inserting control panel
1. Insert the operating panel with the right or the left side first.
2. Push the operating panel until it snaps into place.
To ensure a good connection between the device and the operating panel we
recommend that you clean the contacts occasionally with a cotton swab.
Security code
The navigation radio can be protected against theft with a security code. The unit is
disabled as soon as it is disconnected from the voltage supply (e.g. if it is stolen). It can
only be reactivated by entering the correct code.
The security code can be activated/deactivated and changed. For further information
see “INITIALISATION”, option “Security Code” ➽ page 40.
Anti-theft protection LED
When the navigation radio is switched off and the ignition key removed, a red
anti-theft LED will flash on the front of the unit if the operating panel is removed.
The anti-theft LED is linked to the security code. It will not flash if the security code
has been deactivated.
Safety sticker
Affix the safety stickers provided to the vehicle windows so that they are clearly
☞
visible.
CAUTION:
A
