and distance and the route to a selected destination w ithout taking traffic
regulations into account. Navigation recommendation s are given as
announcements by the system. Direction arrows ar e also shown on the
screen. The destination is entered when the veh icle is stationary. The route
guidance function is designed for cars and is thus un suitable for larger
commercial vehicles.

A variety of different information on th e route can be called up during active
route guidance. The scroll function can be used to page th rough lists shown
on the screen, either line by line or page by page.
If the display “ Off Road
” appears on the screen, it means you are locate d on
a non-digitalised street, (e.g. on a fa rm track). The GPS satellites will not be
able to reach your antenna when you are in a tunnel or underground garage,
meaning that the unit orientates itself via the wheel sensors. If you try to carry
out a route calculation in this situation you may hear the announcement:
“You are located on a non-digitalised street”. Drive on until the display “Off
