Does anyone with PIWIS knowledge know if a US PCM2 can be converted to ROW PCM2 (ie phonebook and user controls) ?

Thanks RFM, could you please be a little more specific, the techs at my dealer freely admit that they don't play with PIWIS much so mine will be the first one they try this on and I would like to give them some clues

If not thats OK, do you know if it will mess up anything, like maps etc

Mike

Yes, change the coding.

Go in the PIWIS menu PCM and change the coding to the country in Europe of your choice ( f.ex. Germany ) to receive the best European radio frequencies. Same for NAVI and you need European CD/DVD as well. I'm not sure if you can use the telephone, the frequency is different and the phone box under the passenger seat cant communicate in Europe, i think!! If it will work you need a SIM card, small problem, SIM cards sold in phone stores are pay & go and works mostly only in the country of purchase. In other words could be a problem to have a call to the US. It is recommended to do conversion as short in time as possible before you leave your country.

I forgot to mention, set the clock for West-Europe DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME and BERLIN + 1 ( not for UK )
