RNS MFD 2 and RNS MFD 2 DVD Radio Navigation Systems
RNS MFD 2 and RNS MFD 2 DVD Radio Navigation Systems
Radio Navigation System with Multi-Function Display 2 with DVD Drive
RNS2 is available in a version with CD drive and in a version with DVD drive for navigation.
You can recognize the RNS2 with MFD DVD by the following labeling on the lower row of buttons:
• middle button says MUTE.
• third button from left says DEST.
The RNS2 with MFD unifies the functions of a navigation system with those of a high-value RDS vehicle radio.
In double DIN housing of radio navigation system are
• a RDS radio receiver part
• a 6.5-inch color liquid crystal display
• a navigation system with GPS satellite receiver
• a CD drive for audio and navigation system or a DVD drive for navigation and
• a TMC tuner (traffic monitoring control module)
installed.
The RNS2 with MFD (multifunction display) is available as a version which operates the speakers via 4 unit-internal speaker outputs or as a version with an additional sound system amplifier. The speakers are then connected directly to the sound system amplifier and the radio navigation system speaker outputs are used for the amplifier input.
The CD drive can read the navigation CD-ROM or also play an audio CD. Navigation operation is only available on a limited basis when an audio CD is playing.
• Music CDs with 8 cm diameter (mini-discs) cannot be played back.
• Mix CDs (CDs that contain computer data and also music) cannot be played.
• RNS 2 units with a DVD drive from 11/05 can also play audio CDs. Units through 10.05 cannot.
For expanded functions, there are connection options for a CD changer, TV tuner, telephone systems and amplifier.
The antenna system with diversity function in connection with the antenna selection control module is used.
• Replacement part number for radio navigation system is located on a sticker on the radio navigation system housing.
• If radio navigation system is replaced, always activate antitheft coding. Refer to => [ Electronic Antitheft System ] Electronic Antitheft System. Give the new code number to the customer.
• If the antitheft code is not known, you can retrieve it via the known systems. You need the identification number of the radio navigation system for retrieval. It is on a sticker attached to the side of the radio unit. The identification number is also stamped in the material in the side of the radio navigation system.
• If a radio navigation system from one vehicle is to be installed in another vehicle, then always make sure that radio navigation systems of both vehicles have the same replacement part number. Otherwise navigation system will malfunction since the setting of the rotation angle sensor in radio navigation system does not match the vehicle.
• Before troubleshooting or servicing, the technicians must be familiar with the function and operation of the radio navigation system.
• Additional information, refer to => Owner's Manual and to 199Radio Navigation System.
• Anti-theft coding is equipped with protection code number, deactivating electronic antitheft system. Refer to => [ Electronic Antitheft System ] Electronic Antitheft System.
• When performing service work or fault finding, use => Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and Information System (VAS 5051 ) or Vehicle Diagnosis and Service System (VAS 5052) in the function "Guided Fault Finding".
• For wiring diagrams, refer to.
• For proper function of the navigation system, rotation angle sensor in unit must be set corresponding to installation position of unit in the vehicle. Therefore, always note the replacement part number when replacing the unit. An incorrect installation causes malfunctions in the navigation system.
• When the battery is reconnected, check any affected system or component (radio, clock, comfort electrical connection etc.) according to the repair information and/or the operating instructions.
• By the use of magnetically adhered antennae on vehicle roof, there is the hazard that the compass module will malfunction due to magnetic influence and remaining magnetization of the vehicle roof. For complaints of inaccurate or faulty direction displays on the compass module, ask the customer whether a magnetically adhered antenna is being used before starting repair work.
