MMI on board Handbook
 
Does anybody have the electronic handbook installed on their MMI? What does it contain and is it worth getting a disc?

I assume it just stays in the disc drive all the time and can be accessed at any point (by pressing the top right button near the MMI wheel if I remember)

You leave it in slot 1 and it comes up when you choose Handbook on the main CAR screen. It is OK, based on HTML, but very slow to load and navigate. If you want a copy, I can make an ISO for you to burn and put it on Dropbox or something.

Seriously, Don't bother. It's incredibly, infuriatingly sloooow :mad:
I have mine loaded in the now pretty much redundant CD player and unless I'm feeling particularly masochistic (like when waiting endlessly outside of Monsoon for instance) it's quicker to get the handbook.... from home

Had the disk with my PF D3 and never ever used it...

When I put it for the first time it took me only few minutes to decide about not touching it again, absolutely useless unless you like reading stuff written in manual language and as tonupkid said its really really slow
You will need a pillow, blanket, portable cooker and kettle powered by cigaret lighter coz you will stay in your car for days to get somewhere.

As it's based on HTML, maybe someone could figure out how to put other stuff on there and fool it into thinking it's the handbook?

I am after a copy of the handbook, whether via to download and burn myself on to a dvd disc or a an actual disc itself, if anyone can help with this I would be extremely grateful and should it need to be bought, cost dependant I can do that also. +++

Regards, Mark.

its a CDRom as opposed to DVD, sadly I have no computers with an optical drive to rip you a copy.
