2009 Seat Leon 5D navigation system

Navigation
34Navigation OverviewHow does the navigation system work, and how is it operated?
An optimal route is defined using sensors, satellites and
traffic reports and the driver is then guided to his or her desti-
nation.The current vehicle position is determined using a system of satellites (GPS -
Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure distances that
have been driven. Thanks to the detailed information on the navigation CD
the measurements values are compared and if necessary they are updated
using the traffic reports ( TMC = Traffic Message Channel). An optimal route to
the destination is determined in this way.
Navigation announcements and direction arrows shown on the screen and on
the instrument panel
7) guide you safely and conveniently to your destina-
tion. You can drive to a given address in towns you are unfamiliar with, or
drive to the nearest garage or be guided to a hotel.

SafetyThe navigation system determines the po sition of the vehicle, the direction
and distance and the route to a selected destination without taking traffic
regulations into account. Navigation recommendations are given as
announcements by the system. Direction arrows are also shown on the
screen. The destination is entered when the vehicle is stationary. The desti-
nation guide function is designed for ca rs and is thus unsuitable for larger
commercial vehicles.

Dynamic destination guide preconditions
In order to use the dynamic destination guide, a TMC station must always be
available ( TMC indicator on the lower right hand side of the screen). If the
station received does not offer the TMC service, it is possible to search for a
TMC station after beginning the destination guide. A selection may be made
from the TMC stations framework ⇒ page 12. Once a TMC station has been
found or selected, the destination guide is started.
While the destination guide is operating, other sound sources may be used
(for example an audio CD), even though the TMC reception will remain active
while the reception is good (Note ⇒page 56, “The destination guide without
the navigation CD”). If you continue li stening to the radio, the tuned radio
station should offer the TMC service.
If the signal from the TMC station is lost, the radio and navigation system
searches for another similar type station.
If, however, “ maintain without TMC ” has been selected or no TMC station is
being received, the message “ No TMC station registered.” is displayed. It is

destination guide is limited or may not work.
Traffic problems during dynamic destination guide
If, while the destination guide is working, a traffic problem arises on the
route, an audio message will indicate the traffic problems or, just before the
problem, will indicate that there are traffic problems.
The navigation system will calculate the quickest possible route when the
dynamic destination guide option is active. The system might well guide you
through a traffic jam if the diversion would be longer.
To display the received traffic reports
Pressing the button displays a list of the latest traffic reports from
the received TMC station.
Rotating and pressing the menu button, additional information on the traffic
report is displayed. Thus, information may be obtained on route traffic and
the route may be altered before beginning the destination guide.
Note
•
The dynamic route guide option will only function if you are receiving at
least one TMC radio station. During the destination guide, the TMC station
must be listened to.
•
The quality of the dynamic destination guide depends on the information
contained in the traffic announcements. The stations and / or traffic informa-
tion providers are responsible for th e quality of the information given.
•
In some situations, the proposed deviat ion in function of some TMC traffic
report may possibly not represent any time saving if the alternative route is
also saturated.

.
More information can be found on the volume settings for the audio indica-
tions in the ⇒ page 9, “Sound, sound focus and volume” ( Navigation
volume )
Other audio indication settings ⇒page 48, “Navigation settings (SETUP)”.
Once the route is calculated, the first indication is heard, for example “Turn
right for the next exit”. The road current ly used is indicated on the lower part
of the screen in the symbol representation mode ⇒page 53, fig. 26 . Up to
three announcements will be made befo re a turn has to be made to ensure
that you are informed in time, for exampl e “Approaching left turn”, “Turn left
after 200 metres” and “Now turn left”. A proximity bar will be shown in the
display on the right-hand side of th e turn arrow shortly before the last
announcement is made. The proximity bar shows how far away the turning
point is. After turning, the distance to the next direction change is displayed
here (note the Tyre calibration in the ⇒ page 48, “Navigation settings
(SETUP)”)
You will receive a recommendation for a lane on roads with more than one
lane that then separate off in different directions, for example “Now, take the
left hand side lane.” and “Now, use the left hand side lane”.
You will also be told which exit to us e off a roundabout before entering it, e.g.
“Leave roundabout by the second exit.” In a roundabout this means “Turn at
the second exit to the right”. An announcement will be made when you reach your destination. If the navi-
gation CD contains the destination street, you will hear the following
message: “You have reached your destination”, otherwise “You have reached
the destination area”. The latter may occur if you have entered the destina-
tion using coordinates and the destination is not included on in the CD infor-
mation.
If an intermediate destination is reac
hed, the indication “You have reached
and intermediate destination” is given th en “Calculating route” or “The route
to intermediate destinatio n is being calculated” if there is an intermediate
destination on the route. The route calculation to the following destination
begins automatically ( ⇒page 50, “Begin/cancel destination guide”).
WARNING
•
As all drivers, you must concentrate on traffic. The indications made on
the basis of the information on the CD may differ from what you actually see
due to incomplete data or a different road layout (e.g. due to road works).
Please keep to traffic regulations and ignore the navigation recommenda-
tions if necessary.
•
Traffic signs and legislation always have priority over the recommenda-
tions made by the system.
•
Please observe the important safety warnings ⇒page 34, “Safety”.Note
Note that the proximity bars and the audio navigation indications only reflect
“real” measurements if the tyre di ameter has been correctly set (Tyre
calibration in ⇒page 48, “Navigation settings (SETUP)”).
