NAV (navigation system) function selection button IntroductionGeneral points
Using sensors, the data received from the satellites and traffic
information, the best route is planned and the driver is
guided to the destination.How the system works
The current vehicle position is determined by means of the GPS satellite
system (Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure
distances that have been driven. The values are compared to the detailed
map information contained in your navigation data and are corrected as
necessary with the support of TMC traffic reports ( TMC = Traffic Message
C hannel) page 80. With all of this data, an optimal route to the destination
is determined.
The audible navigation indications, the maps that appear on the navigation
equipment's screen and the arrows on the instrument panel screen will help
you arrive at your destination in the easiest, safest way- as if you were accom-
panied by an invisible guide.
This enables you to drive to an address in an unfamiliar town, find the nearest
petrol station or be guided to a hotel, for example.
Operation
All of the unit's audio sources are fully available while you are navigating to a
destination
14). Navigation announcements are made at the preset volume
and interrupt the active audio mode. The volume of the current audio source will then be lowered so that you do not "miss" the navigation announcement
page 12, “Changing volume settings”.
Pressing the function selection button always switches straight to the
Navigation main menu. To display the vehicle position in the map view, press
the function button.
When entering an address (town, street), only those letters or symbols which
make up a logical entry will be presented. A list of possible names will be
shown. Do not forget to enter the blank space in names made up of more than
one word, such as “St. Helens”.
The route will be recalculated if you leave or disregard the route that was orig-
inally calculated. This process takes only a few seconds.
The last announcement made can be repeated during route guidance by
pressing the setting knob page 3, fig. 1 . To also display the destina-
tion press the button. During a navigation indication, you can change the
volume by turning the volume knob .
Safety information on use of the navigation systemThe navigation system determines the position of the vehicle and its
heading, plus the distance and route to a selected destination. It takes into
account the traffic rules and regulations stored on the navigation data
medium . The system guides you using audible indications. Direction
arrows are also shown on the screen.
The destination is entered when the vehicle is stationary. The route guidance
function is designed for cars and is thus unsuitable for larger commercial
vehicles.
14)Exception: when the internal CD drive is being used to navigate directly from a navi-
gation CD.
