your limited, complimentary subscription. Call SiriusXM

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 varying 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.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM WARNINGS:
• Operating the radio navigation system while driving can distract from trafc and lead to accidents.
• Observe legal regulations.
• Always drive attentively and responsibly.
• Setting the volume too high can damage the hearing. This applies especially to volumes above around 85 decibels.
• Select volume settings so that acoustic signals from the outside are audible (for example, the sirens of emergency
rescue vehicles).
• Inserting data media while driving can distract from trafc and lead to accidents.
• Always keep the storage compartment closed while driving.
SUNROOF WARNINGS:
Careless or unsupervised use of the panoramic sunroof may result in accidents and severe injuries.
• Only open or close the panoramic sunroof if no one is in the way.
• Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle.
• Never leave children or disabled persons in the vehicle—particularly if they have access to the vehicle key.
Unsupervised use of the vehicle key makes it possible to lock the vehicle, start the engine, turn on the ignition and
operate the panoramic sunroof.
• You can still use the panoramic sunroof for a short time after the ignition is switched off as long as the driver or
passenger door has not been opened.
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 always 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.
