SMS (Short Message Service)
When connected to the mobile phone, short text messages (text SMS, up to 160 charac-
ters in length) can also be received and sent via the navigation system. The availability
of this function depends on the network operator; enabling may be necessary. Please
observe the manufacturer’s specifications.
Images, sounds, data or multi-media messages as well as excessively long SMS texts are
not supported. The phone number for the SMS service centre must be entered via the
mobile phone settings.
Receiving SMS messages
When new SMS messages are received, the message “New SMS! … Read now?”
appears on the screen.
☞
Select “Yes” if you would like to read the message immediately.
☞
Select “No” if you would like to read the message later (see below).
✎
Incoming SMS messages are stored either on the SIM card or in the internal memory
of the mobile phone (depending on the device). They thus remain stored after the
system has been switched off and can e.g. be read later from the mobile phone.
Reading SMS messages
SMS messages are automatically loaded into the navigation system if the mobile phone
is being reconnected to the system or if the system is restarted. The number of SMS
messages is limited to 50. Please also note that it can take some time for all SMS texts
to be loaded.
