Route calculation
After the guidance was activated, the system begins to calculate the route.
This procedure can take some seconds. During this period the display of
the direction of travel in the direction of the destination indicates the infor-
mation “ Calc. route ” and the voice response answers “ The route is
being calculated ”. In addition the distance of the air traffic line to the
destination is shown.
•If the vehicle is located on a digitalized street, the guidance is
performed via acoustic and optical driving recommendations after ending
the route calculation.
•If the vehicle is not located on a digitalized street (e.g. car park,
garage, multi-storey car park), the information “ Off road” is shown on the
left of the screen.
•If you are located outside the ares stored on the navigation CD (e.g.
abroad) the information “ Off map” is shown on the left of the screen.
•If the system cannot calculate a route for the selected destination, the
information “ No route” is shown on the left of the screen. In this case follow the display of the direction of travel which points in the
direction of the destination. You will obtain acoustic and optical driving
recommendations as soon as you are driving on a digitalized street.
WARNING
For the guidance these are only driving recommendations. The
road traffic legislation (StVO) is always applicable, also if a driving
recommendation does not comply with the StVO.
Note
•The navigation system gives the driving recommendations as spoken
driving instructions and through guiding symbols in the symbol display on
the screen.
•The recommendations are carried out in good time so that there is
always enough time to prepare a turn process.
