G
Please do not forget that your primary
responsibility is to drive the vehicle. A
driver’s attention to the road must always be
his/her primary focus when driving. For
your safety and the safety of others, we
recommend that you pull over to a safe loca-
tion and stop before placing or taking a tele-
phone call.
If you choose to use the telephone 1 while
driving, please use the hands-free device
and only use the telephone when road,
weather and traffic conditions permit. Some
jurisdictions prohibit the driver from using a
cellular telephone while driving a vehicle.
Only operate the COMAND* (Cockpit Man-
agement and Data System) and audio sys-
tem if road, weather and traffic conditions
permit.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km /h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximate-
ly 14 m) every second.
1 Observe all legal requirements.
