Contents of the map view
The
 symbol indicates the vehicle's position and heading ⇒ page 76,
fig. 67.
During route guidance the navigation rout e is shown as a blue line. The next
road to take is displayed in the top line of the screen.
While the function buttons are not displayed ⇒page 76, fig. 68 , the road you
are currently on appears in the bottom line.
The remaining distance to the final destination is displayed next to
 on the
left in the bottom line of the screen and, depending on the settings, either the
expected time of arri val or the remaining driving ti me is displayed on the right
next to
 ⇒ page 83, “Changing the time display”.
Shortly before you reach a turning point, a turning arrow appears on the left
of the screen indicating the direction to turn. The distance to the turning point
is displayed below it.
If the vehicle position symbol
 turns grey and the map view stops moving,
the unit is currently unable to determine the vehicle's exact position (for
example, in a car park).
Navigation announcements during the journey
You will hear the first announcement after the route has been calculated, for
example, “Follow the layout of the road”. Up to three announcements will be
made before a turn has to be made to ensure that you are informed in time,
for example, “Approaching left turn”, “Turn left in 1000 feet” and “Now turn
left”.
The distances indicated depend in large part on the type of road on which you
are driving. On motorways, the first announcement is given some 2,000
metres before an exit.
On multiple-lane roads that fork, the corresponding messages are emitted,
for example, “Approaching left turn” and then “Now turn left”.
Some 1000 feet before entering a roundabout, you will be told which exit to
use, for example, “Leave at the second exit”. In a roundabout, the indication may be “Turn at the second right”. In the case of a large roundabout, a third
announcement “Turn right now” will be
given while you are on the rounda-
bout.
When you reach your destination, you will hear the announcement: “You have
reached the destination”.
If the option “Dynamic route” is ticked in the route options, you will be
informed of any reported traffic congestion along your route ⇒page 74. You
will receive an additional announcement if the route is recalculated due to
traffic congestion ⇒ page 80.
A corresponding message will be given if you have manually excluded route
sections ⇒page 79.
Settings for audible navigation indications
During a navigation announcement, you can change the volume using the
volume control ⇒page 3, fig. 1 up to a defined minimum or maximum
volume. Subsequent audible indications will be emitted at that volume.
You can also adjust or switch off the preset navigation announcement volume
in the Navigation settings menu ⇒page 82 or in the menu for volume
settings ⇒page 12 or even suppress the sound.
WARNING
Please observe the laws of road traffic legislation when following the
recommendations made by your radio and navigation system.•
It is fundamental that you are sufficiently alert while driving. Any
distraction may lead to an accident, with the risk of injury.
•
Always observe the safety information on the use of the navigation
system ⇒page 47.

Note•
If you miss a turn during route guidance and are unable to turn back, keep
on driving until the navigation system has calculated a new route for you
⇒ .
•
The quality of the indications emitted by the equipment depends on the
available navigation data and, in case of traffic problems, traffic reports as
well. The traffic stations are responsible for the content and the quality of the
traffic reports.

Dynamic route guidance with TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
During dynamic navigation, traf fic information from the TMC
station is taken into consider ation when planning the route.In the route options, you can determine whether TMC traffic reports
should be taken into account in the route calculation. Route options
can be altered even during a route guidance.
Switching dynamic navigation on and off
– Press the function selection button in one of the naviga-
tion menus.
–In the Navigation settings menu, press the func-
tion button.

The current TMC traffic reports can be displayed in a list ⇒page 84, “TRAF
function selection button”.
Representation of traffic congestion on the map
Traffic problems received via TMC that affect your route will be displayed on
the map with a colour symbol. Traffic congestion that is not on the route is
shown on the map by a grey symbol.
Generally understood symbols are used to indicate the type of traffic conges-
tion (e.g. an “overturned vehicle” for accident). The positioning of the TMC
symbol indicates which direction is affected by the congestion.
If there is reported congestion on the route, the affected route section is
coloured red. If the reported congestion is not on the route, the affected
section of road is coloured grey. If r oute guidance is not active, all traffic
congestion will be coloured grey.
Dynamic navigation
When dynamic navigation is switched on, you will be automatically diverted
during route guidance to avoid reported traffic congestion on your route if it
is calculated that the diversion will save time ⇒page 81, “Conditions for
dynamic navigation”.
Once a traffic report that is relevant for your route has been received, a
spoken announcement will be made to inform you that the route is being
recalculated to take traffic reports into account.
A similar announcement is also given if any traffic congestion that was taken
into account in the original route calc ulation has disappeared and it has now
become possible to take a more favourable route.
Conditions for dynamic navigation
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data system for the constant
transmission of traffic reports.
The unit is constantly supplied with TMC traffic reports in the background,
provided that a TMC station can be received at the current location. The quality of the traffic reports sent depends on the radio station broad-
casting them. The reception of TMC traffic reports cannot be switched on or
off.
You do not have to listen to the TMC station.
The radio-navigation system can only process and store TMC traffic reports if
the unit has access to navigation data for the area you are currently travelling
through
⇒page 49.
The current TMC traffic reports can be viewed by pressing the function
selection button ⇒page 84.
Note
•
In some situations, you may find that a diversion based on the TMC infor-
mation does not save you time as th e alternative route is also congested.
•
You can also exclude an upcoming section of the route manually if traffic
congestion ahead has not yet been recorded by TMC traffic reports
⇒ page 79.

button to tick or untick the checkbox ⇒page 83, “Demo mode”.
– If demo mode is enabled, you can select a fictitious location when the vehicle is stationary by pressing the function button.
– After pressing , proceed as described
for “normal” entry of a destination ⇒page 58.
– If you have not selected a fictitious location, virtual route guid- ance will be started from the ve hicle's last determined position.
– Once route guidance is activated, you must select by pressing it to start virtual route guidance.
Deleting the destination memory
– Press the function button and then
select whether to delete the entire destination memory or just
the last destinations list ⇒page 70. Setting the database for navigation
– Press the
function button to view informa-
tion on the data medium being used for navigation or to copy
data from a navigation CD onto a memory card ⇒page 49.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by GPS
positioning, any manually entered location will be overwritten with the
current vehicle location.
Demo mode
In demo mode you may begin a virtual route guidance. The virtual route guid-
ance will be repeated upon reaching the fictitious destination. You can stop
virtual route guidance in the same wa y as “normal” route guidance. To start
a “real” route guidance, deactivate the demo mode or select when
starting route guidance.
If you selected a fictitious starting point for the virtual route guidance, it may
take a while for the unit to determine your real location again, depending on
the number of satellites currently available. The unit first has to reorient itself.
Drive a few yards.
