The performance of the system may slow down tempor arily if a CD/DVD is being copied onto the Jukebox at the same time as a route is being calculated.
Wait until the CD/DVD has been copied or stop the copying before starting the guidance function.
The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to receive more than 4 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely. Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least 4 satellites (long press on the MENU button, then select AUDIO/TELEPHONE DIAGNOSTICS, then GPS COVERAGE).
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel, ...) or the weather, the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the conditions of reception of the GPS signal.
The route calculation is not successful. T h e e x c l u s i o n c r i t e r i a m a y c o n fl i c t w i t h t h e c u r r e n t l o c a t i o n ( e x c l u s i o n o f toll roads on a toll motorway). Check the exclusion criteria.
There is a long waiting time after inserting a CD or SD card.
When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take a few seconds. This phenomenon is normal.
