Note•If you miss a turn during route guidance and are unable to turn back, keep 
on driving until the navigation system has calculated a new route for you 
 .•The quality of the indications emitted by the equipment depends on the 
available navigation data and, in case of traffic problems, traffic reports as 
well. The traffic stations are responsible for the content and the quality of the 
traffic reports.Stopping and resuming route guidance
Active route guidance can be stopped and later resumed at 
any time.
Select a destination and start route guidance. During route guid-

Dynamic route guidance with TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
During dynamic navigation, traffic information from the TMC 
station is taken into consideration when planning the route.In the route options, you can determine whether TMC traffic reports 
should be taken into account in the route calculation. Route options 
can be altered even during a route guidance.

The current TMC traffic reports can be displayed in a listpage 84, “TRAF 
function selection button”.
Representation of traffic congestion on the map
Traffic problems received via TMC that affect your route will be displayed on 
the map with a colour symbol. Traffic congestion that is not on the route is 
shown on the map by a grey symbol.
Generally understood symbols are used to indicate the type of traffic conges-
tion (e.g. an “overturned vehicle” for accident). The positioning of the TMC 
symbol indicates which direction is affected by the congestion.
If there is reported congestion on the route, the affected route section is 
coloured red. If the reported congestion is not on the route, the affected 
section of road is coloured grey. If route guidance is not active, all traffic 
congestion will be coloured grey.
Dynamic navigation
When dynamic navigation is switched on, you will be automatically diverted 
during route guidance to avoid reported traffic congestion on your route if it 
is calculated that the diversion will save time  page 81, “Conditions for 
dynamic navigation”.
Once a traffic report that is relevant for your route has been received, a 
spoken announcement will be made to inform you that the route is being 
recalculated to take traffic reports into account.
A similar announcement is also given if any traffic congestion that was taken 
into account in the original route calculation has disappeared and it has now 
become possible to take a more favourable route.
Conditions for dynamic navigation
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data system for the  constant 
transmission of traffic reports.
The unit is constantly supplied with TMC traffic reports in the background, 
provided that a TMC station can be received at the current location. The quality of the traffic reports sent depends on the radio station broad-
casting them. The reception of TMC traffic reports cannot be switched on or 
off.
You do not have to listen to the TMC station.
The radio-navigation system can only process and store TMC traffic reports if 
the unit has access to navigation data for the area you are currently travelling 
through 
page 49.
The current TMC traffic reports can be viewed by pressing the   function 
selection button  page 84.
Note
•In some situations, you may find that a diversion based on the TMC infor-
mation does not save you time as the alternative route is also congested.•You can also exclude an upcoming section of the route manually if traffic 
congestion ahead has not  yet been recorded by TMC traffic reports

Starting a demonstration journey (Demo mode)
– To switch demo mode on or off, press the   function 
button to tick or untick the checkbox  page 83, “Demo mode”.
– If demo mode is enabled, you can select a fictitious location  when the vehicle is stationary by pressing the   function button.
– After pressing  , proceed as described 
for “normal” entry of a destination  page 58.
– If you have not selected a fictitious location, virtual route guid- ance will be started from the vehicle's last determined position.
– Once route guidance is activated, you must select   by  pressing it to start virtual route guidance.
Deleting the destination memory
– Press the   function button and then 
select whether to delete the entire destination memory or just 
the last destinations list  page 70. Setting the database for navigation
– Press the 
 function button to view informa-
tion on the data medium being used for navigation or to copy 
data from a navigation CD onto a memory card  page 49.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location  by GPS 
positioning, any manually entered location will be overwritten with the 
current vehicle location.
Demo mode
In demo mode you may begin a virtual route guidance. The virtual route guid-
ance will be repeated upon reaching the fictitious destination. You can stop 
virtual route guidance in the same way as “normal” route guidance. To start 
a “real” route guidance, deactivate the demo mode or select   when 
starting route guidance.
If you selected a fictitious starting point for the virtual route guidance, it may 
take a while for the unit to determine your real location again, depending on 
the number of satellites currently available. The unit first has to reorient itself.
