Displaying route list
You can access a listing of streets and
towns on your route whenever the guid-
ance system is active. This list is based on
the navigation system's suggested travel
route.
The distances remaining to be traveled on
each individual road are also displayed.
1.Select "View" and confirm your selec-
tion. All the menu items will disappear
after a few moments if no further entries
are made
2.Select "Route" and confirm.
If the system has not yet completely
defined the travel route, "..." will appear
in the list.

route list.
The route list is displayed again after
a short time if no other menu item has
been selected.<

you want to travel before returning to the
original route.

The route list appears in the Control
Display. Select one or several con-
nected sections of the route that you

again selecting and confirming the
stretch of the travel route to cancel its
avoid status. You can also replace the
avoid section by marking another
stretch.

desired detour mileage, then confirm
your selection. To exit the "Avoid route"
mode without modifying your route,
enter 0 miles (0 km) and confirm your
entry.

jected travel route, the navigation system
will issue a "Last exit" warning just before
you reach the back-up.

The GPS navigation system determines a
new route and then returns to the destina-
tion guidance system.
The traffic information service might
not be available in some regions,
which means that a traffic jam cannot be
displayed.<

interrupting other audio sources, such as a
news program or traffic bulletin, you can
deactivate the voice guidance system.

tions, the system lets you store addresses
for frequent destinations.You have the possibility to store the
addresses in two separate address books:
>the address book of the navigation
system
>the address book of the voice com-
mand system.
Navigation system address book
Storing addresses
In this address book, you can store
approx. 50 addresses.
Addresses can be entered from different
menus.
The system stores the current address in
the address book as "AS ADDRESS".
You can also enter your current posi-
tion in the address book after leaving
the sector covered by the map CD. In this
case, you must enter a name.<
Selecting an address
Select "Address book" and confirm.
A list of the stored addresses appears on
the right side of the Control Display.
To select an address as destination:

Location
Display of current location
1.Select "Location" and confirm.
You can request the current location of
your BMW or view a display showing your
map location. If the navigation system is
unable to identify a town or city, your cur-
rent map coordinates will appear.
If the navigation system recognizes the
city, but not the street and intersection, you
can enter these manually, refer to "ABC..."
for operating instructions. The entry is
adopted as the current location with
"ACCEPT".
"AS ADDRESS" can be used to import your
current location into the address book; you
can also enter a name as desired. Entry of a
name is mandatory for locations identified
only by their map coordinates.
Entering the location
We recommend that you avoid entering
subsequent corrections of your position
unless absolutely necessary. After trans-
port by truck or rail, etc., the GPS receiver
may require several minutes to determine
your current location. You can reduce the
amount of time the system requires to
determine your location by entering it man-
ually.
To enter your current location:
1.Select "Location" and confirm
2.Enter the address of the current loca-
tion in the same way as for destination
input, refer to page 132.Once effective GPS reception has
been established, it will no longer be
possible to revise your position manually.<
Wordmatch principle
The system relies on a wordmatch principle
to make it easier for you to enter the names
of towns or streets. The system runs
ongoing checks, comparing your destina-
tion entries with the data stored on the map
CD as the basis for instant response. The
user benefits include:
>When you make an entry that consists
of more than one word, the system can
identify the name regardless of the
sequence in which you enter the indi-
vidual words.
Example:
Official version:
J.F. Kennedy Square
Possible entries:
Kennedy Square J.F.
or:
Square J.F. Kennedy
>Names of specific locations can also
vary from the official versions provided
that the spelling of the entry corre-
sponds to a standard form used in
another country
>When you are entering the names of
cities and streets the system will com-
plete them automatically as soon as
enough letters are available to ensure
unambiguous identification.
Example:
If you want to drive to Iowa Ave NW in
Washington, the system has already identi-
fied the street name when "o" is entered
and displayed it in the lower half of the
Control Display.
>The system only accepts name entries
beginning with letters that are stored on
the map CD. The system will not accept
non-existent names and addresses.

What to do if É
What to do if É
>you request the current location of your
vehicle, but do not receive a precise
display?
The system is unable to receive enough
GPS signals at your current location
owing to obstructions, your location is
not yet available on your CD, or the
system is in the process of calculating
your location. Please wait and then try
again later on
>the GPS logo disappears from the Con-
trol Display screen?
Reception is interrupted; a building or
similar obstruction may be the cause
>the guidance system refuses to import
an address from the destination direc-
tory as its destination?
The address is in the list, but not on the
map CD currently in use. Choose an
address as close as possible to the
original one, using the destination entry
map as required
>the guidance system does not adopt an
address without the street?
No specified center is defined for the
selected locality on your CD. Enter any
street, or a destination such as the
railway station, etc., then start the guid-
ance system
>you want to enter an address for the
guidance system, but it is not possible
to select the letters for your desired
entry?
The address is in the list, but not on the
map CD currently in use. In this case,
the system will not offer you any letters
to choose from. Choose an address as
close as possible to the original one,
using the destination entry map as
required
>the system stops furnishing directions
on which way to turn as you approach
intersections?
You are driving in an area that has not
yet been completely recorded on the
map CD. Instead of an arrow indicating a turn, you will see an arrow which indi-
cates the general direction of your
planned route;
or
you have left the recommended route
and the system requires a few seconds
to calculate a new recommended route
>while the destination route map has
automatically been adopted for dis-
play?
You are driving in an area that has not
yet been recorded on the map CD. The
guidance system cannot operate under
these conditions. However, you will see
the current position of your BMW in the
map display to help you orient yourself
>the battery has been disconnected?
It will take approx. 15 minutes for the
system to resume operation.
