Checking the vehicle
functions
A
Check the safety-relevant vehicle functions
only when the vehicle is stationary, or moving
at low speed. Only perform the check in an
open area.
Brake system, lights, speedometer, trip com-
puter.
Restore perfect functioning of the electrical
system (clock, trip computer, alarm system,
airbag, immobiliser, radio coding etc.).
Checking the navigation functions
Check the following functions in the station-
ary vehicle:
■
Remote control (batteries inserted)
Press the buttons on the remote control and
watch for the reaction on the navigation sys-
tem.
■
Active remote control holder
Insert the remote control into the holder
(without batteries):
The navigation system must react to actua-
tion of the buttons.
■
Night/day colour display
Switch on the low beam:
The navigation system should switch from
day to night colours.
■
GPS reception
Call up the “Map” option in the main menu.
The map with the calculated vehicle position
is displayed. The GPS reception status is indi-
cated at the centre of the bottom status line.
As soon as adequate GPS reception is ensured,
the colour of the GPS logo changes from red
to black. There should be a minimum of 4
satellites received.
■
TMC reception
The reception status for the Traffic Message
Channel is indicated at the centre of the top
status line. TMC reception is not available
when “TMC” is written in red.
Calibration
As soon as adequate GPS reception is avail-
able (green GPS logo), perform a short test
drive (approx. 10 minutes) on digitised roads
in order to calibrate the system. Calibration
takes place fully automatically. Turn off sev-
eral times and drive through a number of
junctions.
You can then check whether the navigation
system indicates the correct vehicle position
in the map display.
■
Speedometer signal
The functioning of the speedometer signal
can be tested using the trip computer func-
tion of the navigation system. The trip com-
puter must show the current vehicle speed
during driving. The wrong speed may be in-
dicated prior to final calibration.
Hotline
Hotlines are available in many countries to
handle queries regarding the multimedia
