5 Series E60 525d (M57TU) SAL
Once the navigation system has been switched on for the first time (terminal R ON) the GPS satellite
Almanac data is received and loaded. The loading time depends on the number of "visible" GPS satellites
and can take up to 20 minutes during the adaptation phase. Otherwise the almanac data is permanently
stored in the system.
Note: After longer periods of not being used (longer than 1 week) it is possible that navigation will be inaccurate at
first.
Almanac data must be reloaded if the vehicle is not used for a prolonged period of time or if it is transported
over a distance of more than 300 km from the starting point, e.g. after:
-
Transportation from the Dingolfing factory.
-
Return transport from abroad in the case of damage.
-
Transporting the vehicle on a train.
-
Shutdown of the micro power module if the idle current is violated
Navigation in the adaptation phase is possible when the vehicle is stationary or in motion. Navigation is
highly inaccurate at first. The end of the adaptation phase and thus the maximum precision of the navigation
system will be achieved after some time or a lengthy journey.
When the Almanac data is loaded, the navigation system is ready for operation 10 to 15 seconds after
starting each time.

Voice recognition system
A voice recognition system (SVS) is integrated in the CCC. The SVS can be used to operate all buttons that
are displayed in the CID by means of voice commands. The advantage of this is that the driver does not
have to take his/her hands off the steering wheel to change the settings during a journey. The SVS can be
used to control the following systems:
-
Entertainment
-
Communication
-
Navigation
-
Air conditioning (not R56)
-
Settings (R56: Setup)
There are specified voice commands that are used for the SVS. SVS engages in a dialogue with the user. If
a command is not understood, prompts will be issued.
The SVS software is loaded in the CCC. SVS uses the memories and processors in the CCC. The system
is activated/deactivated with the push-to-talk button on the multi-function steering wheel or with the
controller (not R56).
Voice commands are input through a separate microphone that is directly connected to the CCC. This
microphone is discontinued from 09/2006. Voice commands are input via the hands-free microphone.

TV function (not E87)
The TV function is available as special equipment (option 601 "TV function") for the Car Communication
Computer (CCC). The Central Information Display (CID) in the dashboard acts as a screen for the TV
function.
Important: For reasons of safety, TV reception is not permissible while the vehicle is being driven!
From a speed of 3 km/h upwards, the TV function is disabled. However, TV sound remains audible.
CCC gateway
The CCC Gateway control unit forms the interfaces for data exchange between the MOST bus and the K-CAN.
