138 As a result, the routes recommended by
the navigation system may not always be
the same ones that you would choose
based on personal experience.<
Using the voice command system:
Wordmatch principle
The system relies on a wordmatch principle
to make it easier for you to enter the names
or towns or streets. The system runs ongo-
ing checks, comparing your destination
entries with the data stored on the naviga-
tion CD/DVD as the basis for instant
response. The user benefits include:
>When you make an entry that consists
of more than one word, the system can
identify the name regardless of the
sequence in which you enter the indi-
vidual words.
Example:
Official version:
J.F. Kennedy Square
Possible entries:
Kennedy Square J.F.
or:
Square J.F. Kennedy
>Names of specific locations can also
vary from the official versions provided
that the spelling of the entry corre-
sponds to a standard form used in
another country
>When you are entering the names of cit-
ies and streets the system will complete
them automatically as soon as enough
letters are available to ensure unambig-
uous identification.
Example:
If you want to drive to Iowa Ave NW in
Washington, the system has already
identified the street name when "o" is
entered and displayed it in the lower
half of the Control Display
>The system only accepts name entries
beginning with letters that are stored on
the navigation CD/DVD. The system will
not accept nonexistent names and
addresses. 1.{Navigation}
