BLUETOOTH® WARNINGS:

Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Speaking on or using a phone while driving can distract the driver from traffic.

• Use of Bluetooth technology requires a compatible phone.

• Select the volume settings so that the acoustic signals from the outside are still audible (for example, the sirens

of emergency rescue vehicles). Observe legal regulations.

• In areas with no or poor mobile network coverage and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways, phone

conversations may be interrupted, and it may be impossible to make phone calls—even emergency calls!

• In some countries, emergency calls may only be supported when the mobile phone is connected to a mobile phone package which has a SIM card that is “not blocked” and/or has sufficient credit on it.

• Unmounted or improperly mounted mobile phones can fly around in the event of a sudden driving or braking

maneuver or an accident. This may cause injuries.

• Never place or mount a mobile phone on doors, on the windshield or on or near the area on the steering wheel marked “AIRBAG,” the instrument panel, the seat backrests or the areas between these points and the driver/passengers. Mobile phones can lead to serious injuries in cases of accidents, especially when the airbags are inflated.

• Always switch off your mobile telephone at gas stations or wherever there is a fire or explosion hazard.

Electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks which can start fires.

• The mobile phone will automatically connect to the mobile network when the Bluetooth connection to the mobile phone package is disconnected. Using a radio device in the vehicle without a connection to an external antenna might exceed electromagnetic radiation thresholds. This also applies if the external antenna is not installed properly.

• Keep a distance of at least 8 inches between the antennas of the mobile phone and a pacemaker, since mobile

phones can affect the functionality of a pacemaker.

• Do not carry a mobile phone on standby mode in the breast pocket directly on top of a pacemaker.

• If interference is suspected, immediately switch off the mobile phone.

• The center armrest can interfere with the driver’s elbow movement and thus cause accidents and severe injuries.

Always keep the armrest closed while driving.

PREMIUM 8 RADIO WARNINGS:

Distracting the driver from traffic can lead to accidents and injuries. Using the radio system while driving can

distract from traffic.

• Observe legal regulations.

• Always drive attentively and responsibly.

• Setting the volume too high can damage the hearing. This applies especially to volumes above approximately

85 decibels.

• Select volume settings so that acoustic signals from the outside are al ways audible (for example, the sirens of emergency rescue vehicles).

• Please lower the volume before changing or connecting to an audio source.

• Unmounted or improperly mounted external devices can be thrown through the passenger compartment in the

event of a sudden driving or braking maneuver or a collision, causing injury.

• Never leave external devices in the doors, on the front windshield, on or near the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering wheel, instrument panel, seat backs or between these areas and the occupants. External devices can

cause serious injury in the event of a collision, especially if the airbags inflate.

• Connecting cables of external devices may obstruct the driver. Route cables so as not to interfere with the driver.

• The armrest can affect the elbow room of the driver and thus cause collisions and severe injuries. Always keep

the armrest closed while driving.

• Injuries can be caused by invisible laser beams if the housing of the CD player is opened.

• Have the CD player repaired only by a specialist.

CLIMATRONIC SYSTEM WARNINGS:

Poor visibility increases the risk of collisions and other accidents that cause serious personal injuries.

• Always make sure all windows are clear of ice, snow, and condensation for good visibility to the front, sides, and rear.

• Maximum heating output and defrosting performance are not possible until the engine has reached opera ting

temperature. Wait until you have good visibility before driving off.

• Always make sure you know how to properly use the heating and ventilation systems as well as the rear windo w

defogger that you will need for good visibility.

• Never use air recirculation for long periods of time. When the air conditioner is off and recirculation mode is on, condensation can quickly form on the windows and greatly reduce visibility.

• Always switch off recirculation mode when it is not needed. Stale air causes driver fatigue and reduces driver

alertness, which can cause accidents, collisions and serious personal injury.

• Never switch off the fan for a long period of time and never use air recircula tion for a long period of time because no fresh air will enter the passenger compartment.

CRUISE CONTROL WARNINGS:

Using the cruise control when it is not possible to drive safely at a constant speed can be dangerous and can lead to an accident, with serious personal injury to you and your passengers.

• Never use cruise control when driving in heavy or var ying traffic or when you cannot keep a safe distance between

you and the vehicles ahead of you.

• Never use cruise control on steep, winding, or slippery roads (such as gravel roads, wet roads, or snowy or icy roads) or on roads with standing water.

• Never use cruise control when driving offroad or on unpaved roads.

• Always adjust your speed and the distance you keep between you and the vehicles ahead of you to the road, traffic,

weather, and visibility conditions.

• To help prevent unintended operation of cruise control, switch the system off when it is not being used.

• It is dangerous to use the Resume feature when the previously set speed is too high for the existing road, traffic,

or weather conditions.

• When traveling downhill, the cruise control may not be able to maintain a constant speed. The vehicle will speed up because of its own weight. Downshift and/or use the foot brake to slow the vehicle.

KEY FOB WARNINGS:

Improper use of vehicle keys can result in serious personal injury.

• Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. It can be used to start the engine and operate vehicle systems such as the power windows, leading to serious personal injury. Children or other unauthorized persons

could also lock the doors and the luggage compartment.

• Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked with the remote control key. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. For example, depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.

• Heat build-up in the passenger and lugga ge compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher than outside temperatures, particularly in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach

levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small children.

• Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a stop. The steering wheel will lock and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.

MEMORY FUNCTION WARNINGS:

Improper use of electrical front seat controls can cause serious personal injuries.

• The front seats in your vehicle can be electrically adjusted even when the ignition key is removed. Never leave

children and persons who need help in the vehicle alone because the unsupervised use of the electric seat adjustments can result in serious personal injury.

• Always make sure tha t no one is in the way while the front seats are being adjusted, or while calling up the stored

memory settings for the front seats. In an emergency, stop automatic seat adjustment by pressing another seat adjustment switch.
