on the map. If you tap the map at the icon

qObjects on the map
Streets and roads
MMES shows the streets in a way that is
similar to how the paper road maps show
them. Their width and colors correspond to
their importance: you can easily tell a freeway
from a small street.
Turn preview and Next street
When navigating a route, the top section of
the Map screen shows information about the
next route event (maneuver) and the next
street or the next city/town.
There is a field in the top left corner that
displays the next maneuver. Both the type of
the event (turn, traffic circle, exiting freeway,
etc.) and its distance from the current position
are displayed.A smaller icon shows the type of the
second next maneuver if it is near the first
one. Otherwise, only the next maneuver is
displayed.
Most of these icons are very intuitive. The
following table lists some of the frequently
shown route events. The same symbols are
used in both fields:
Icon Description
Turn left.
Turn right.
Turn back.
Bear right.
Turn sharp left.
Keep left.
Continue straight in the
intersection.
Icon Description
Go left on the traffic circle, 3rd exit
(next maneuver).
Enter traffic circle (second next
maneuver).
Enter freeway.
Exit freeway.
Board ferry.
Leave ferry.
(yellow)
Approaching a waypoint.
Approaching the destination.
Lane information and Signposts
When navigating on multilane roads, it is
important to take the appropriate lane in
order to follow the recommended route. If
lane information is available in the map data,
MMES displays the lanes and their directions
using small arrows at the bottom of the map.
Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you
need to take.

Driving
3. ON-ROAD
NAVIGATION
When first started, MMES calculates routes
using the road network of the high quality
vector maps provided with the product.
You can set up your route in different ways:
If you need a route for immediate
navigation, you can select the destination
and start navigating to it right away (normal
navigation).
You can also plan a route independently of
your current position.
You can plan routes with multiple destinations.
Select the first destination. Then select a
second destination and add it to your route
to create a multi-point route. You can add as
many destinations to your route as you like.
You can also use MMES for off-road
navigation. For details, see page 59.
Selecting the destination
of a route
MMES offers you several ways of choosing
your destination:
Enter a full address or a part of an
address, for example a street name
without a house number or the names of
two intersecting streets (page 29). Enter an address with ZIP code (page 37).
This way you do not need to select the
name of the city/town and the search for
street names might be faster as well.
Use a built-in Place of Interest as your
destination (page 39).
Select a location on the map with the Find
on Map feature (page 47).
Use a previously saved Favorite
destination (page 47).
Select a location from the History of
previously used destinations (page 49).
Enter the coordinate of the destination
(page 49).
qEntering an address or a
part of the address
If you know at least a part of the address, it is
the quickest way to select the destination of
the route.
Using the same screen, you can find an
address by entering:
the exact address, including house number
the center of a city/town
the midpoint of a street
any of the above, starting the search with
the ZIP code (page 37)
