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.
