Guidance in partly mapped areas
In rural areas and smaller cities, not
every road is mapped (stored on the
map CD). When the vehicle leaves
the mapped road, the system
automatically changes from the
guidance screen to map display at
the 1/2 mile scale.
²Drive in direction of a displayed (mapped) road, if route guidance is
desired.
²As soon as the mapped road is reached, the system switches back to
guidance and plans a new route.
Automatic re-routing
If the guidance advice is not followed, the advice is missed, or it is not
possible to follow the advice due to traffic demands, the system will
automatically plan a new route within a few seconds.
Adjustment of the average speed setting
The navigation system uses the average speed of the vehicle by default
for calculating the remaining travel time and the estimated time of
arrival. The average speed can be adjusted if the displayed times (time
of arrival or remaining travel time) are consistently different from what
you experience. Please refer to theSystem informationsection of
System settings.

²If the vehicle is involved in an accident, damage to equipment may
have occurred.
²If the vehicle battery is dead, discharged or disconnected, the system
will not operate.

However, as long as the global positioning system is operating properly,
your current longitude and latitude will be displayed.
