Navigation OverviewHow does the navigation system work, and how is it operated?
An optimal route is defined us ing 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 sy stem of satellites (GPS -
Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle mea sure distances that 
have been driven. Thanks to the detailed informatio n on the navigation CD 
the measurements values are compared and if necessa ry they are updated 
using the traffic reports ( TMC = Traffic  Message  Channel). An optimal route to 
the destination is determined in this way.

regulations into account. Navigation recommendations  are given as 
announcements by the system. Direction arrows are al so shown on the 
screen. The destination is entered when the vehicle is  stationary. The desti-
nation guide function is designed for cars and is thus unsuit able for larger 
commercial vehicles.
