lar telephone while the vehicle is in motion.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location before
placing or answering a call.
If you nonetheless choose to use the tele-
phone 1 while driving, please use the hands-
free device and be sure to pay attention to
the traffic situation at all times. Use the tele-
phone only when road, weather and traffic
conditions permit. Otherwise, you may not
be able to observe traffic conditions and
could endanger yourself and others.

with a built-in or attached antenna (i.e. with-
out being connected to an external antenna)

running. Doing so could lead to a malfunc-
tion of the vehicle’s electronic system, pos-
sibly resulting in an accident and/or
personal injury.
