unit button in one of the navigation menus.
● In the Navigation setup menu, press the Route options function button
⇒ Fig. 64.

box ⇒ Fig. 65.
Defining route criteria
● In the Route options setup menu, press the Route criteria
function button.
● Press the desired settings to select them in the pop-up window.
Route criteriaMeaningFastFastest route to the destination, even if it means driv-
ing further.
EconomicalThis function aims to find an equilibrium between the
shortest time and the shortest route.
ShortShortest route to the destination, even if it results in a
longer travelling time. The navigation route may in-
clude unusual route sections, e.g. dirt roads.
Dynamic route
If dynamic route guidance is activated, TMC traffic reports will be taken into
account in the route calculation ⇒ page 71.
Excluding types of route in the calculation
The function buttons Avoid motorways
, etc. define whether or not these
types of road may be included in the route calculation.
Even when excluded, these types of route will still be included in the route
calculation if no practical alternative route exists. For example, if it is impos-
sible to reach an island without using the ferry. For the calculation of very
long routes, it is not possible to avoid motorways. Navigation announcements
When the route has been calculated, the first announcement is given. Up to
three navigation announcements are given before a turn, e.g. within a town
“Prepare to turn left”, “Turn left after 300 metres” and “Now turn left”.
●
Press the setting knob ⇒ Fig. 1 10
to hear the last navigation announce-
ment again.
The distances that are announced depend on the type of road and the
speed at which you are driving. On motorways, the first announcement is
given roughly 2,000 m before an exit.
For example, the following announcements may be heard on multi-lane
highways or roads that divide, and at roundabouts: “Take the second exit at
the roundabout!”. More than one instruction may be necessary when navi-
gating very large roundabouts. In any case, the exit to be taken is always
displayed in relation to the position of the vehicle at the time the instruction
is given.
When you arrive at your destination, the following announcement is heard:
“You have reached the destination”.
During dynamic route guidance, you receive information about reported
traffic congestion on the route. If the route is recalculated due to traffic con-
gestion, you will be advised accordingly ⇒ page 71.
Announcement settings.
Navigation announcements are played at the preset volume.
The volume of an announcement can be changed with the volume control
. All following announcements will then be made at this volume.
The volume of navigation announcements can be preset or switched off in
the Navigation setup menu ⇒ page 74 or in the volume settings
⇒ page 100.

When route guidance starts, the system automatically switches to the map
view ⇒ Fig. 66. The red symbol indicates the vehicle's position and heading ⇒ Fig. 66. If
the vehicle position symbol remains in the same position and the map view freezes, it is currently not possible to determine the vehicle's position,
e.g. in a multi-storey car park.
During route guidance the navigation route is shown as a blue line. Sec-
tions closed to traffic either manually or due to TMC messages advising of
traffic congestion
⇒ page 71 are shown in colour on the calculated route.

the volume of the radio and navigation system is lowered to make manoeu-
vring easier and so that acoustic warnings are audible. If the maximum start-up volume is set very low, the navigation system an-
nouncements will also be lowered to this level. This may mean that the vol-
ume of the navigation system requires turning up each time the unit is
switched on.
Functional description of speed-dependent volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed dependent volume adjustment automatically increases the vol-
ume as the vehicle speed increases.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed is adjusted on a scale
between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume rises only slightly as the speed of the vehi-
cle increases. At a high setting the volume is increased more. At
0 speed-
dependent volume control is switched off (display: Off).
