warning SKODA OCTAVIA 2009 2.G / (1Z) Columbus Navigation System Manual

General information
4Information on how to operate the navigation systemThe requirements of today's road traffic demand the driver’s full concentration at all times. Apart from the availability entertainmen
t, the extensive and demanding equipment
details of this system also offer a wide range of information, which will help you to reach your destination quickly and safely. But you should only operate the navigation system with its wide range of possi- bilities when the traf
fic situatio
n allows.
The volume settings must be selected in
such a way that audible signals from the
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility
vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire
brigade), can be heard at all times.
WARNING
Please concentrate fully at all times on yo
ur driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Only use the functions in such a way that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all traffic situations!Before using the navigation system•
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•
Street and location names can be changed.
It is therefore possible that, in excep-
tional cases, the names stored on the na
vigation DVDs do not correspond to the
changed names.•
The route calculated by the navigation
system is a recommendation for reaching
the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to traffic lights, one-way streets, lane change restrictions, canals and ferries.
WARNING
Road traffic legislation (StVO) applies at
all times, even if a driving recommen-
dation contradicts the StVO.
Caution
•
Inserting a second CD/DVD while a CD/D
VD is being ejected can destroy the
CD/DVD drive in the unit. Please note that
the CD/DVD ejection lasts a few seconds
after pressing the
Eject key
. During this time the lock
in front of the CD/DVD case
is open. It is essential that
you wait until the CD/DVD has
been fully ejected before you
try to insert a new CD/DVD.•
Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging them.
Gentle pressure on the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit. Please note that the control buttons have predetermined breaking points, in order to reduce the risk of injury.•
Do not use any pointed or sharp-edged objects to operate the touch-screen. Slight
finger pressure sufficient to operate the equipment. A display on the screen, which cannot be called up by pressing the button,
is therefore not available at that time.
•
Please note that a dirty or scratched na
vigation DVD can cons
iderably impair the
speed and the functions of
the navigation system.
Note
•
Your navigation system is a high-powered
computer. Just as your computer at
home, this unit needs a few seconds for proc
essing complicated control sequences. In
such a case it is possible that the unit wi
ll no longer react when operated from the
outside until the triggered processes have
been dealt with processed in the back-
ground. Please be patient, as it is quite po
ssible that the unit “stores” the carried-out
operating steps even if it does not appear to react to the operation from the outside. These operating steps are processed one after the other by the unit once the processes in the background have been completed, which can be confusing.•
The DVD drive installed into this unit uses a Dolby Digital
® Audio coding system
and MLP Lossless
® for highest reproduction quality even with standard Audio DVDs.

Range selector key NAV (Navigation)
34Range selector key NAV (Navigation)OverviewSafety information regarding the use of the navigation systemThe route is recalculated each time if yo
u ignore driving recommendations or change
the route. This process takes only a few
seconds. Driving recommendations can only
then be re-transmitted. Incomplete navigation data The navigation system cannot receive any data from GPS satellites if you drive for longer periods under thick forest canopy or
when your vehicle is
in a garage, under-
pass or tunnel. In this case, the navigation system orientates itself solely with the help of the vehicle sensors. In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and stored as such on the navigation DVD, the navigation system will try to provide guidance to the destination. Please note that under these circumstances the guidance
to the destination may not be completely
correct if, for example, one-way streets and
road categories (motorway, country road
etc.) are not at all or only partially
included in the navi
gation data used.
WARNING
Always concentrate fully on your driving. Inattention by the driver can lead to accidents and injuries.•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted or loose your concentration, pay
attention to the traffic situation and do not carry out settings or use the radio navigation system.•
Only use the radio navigation system if road, weather and traffic situations
permit this and you are not distracted.•
The various volume settings must be selected in such a way that audible
signals from the outside, such as e.g. a
Martins horn from police cars and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.
WARNING
Please observe the legal requirements for road traffic when following the driving recommendations provided by your radio navigation system.•
The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situations,
e.g. due to road works or out of date
navigation data. In such a case, always
observe the traffic regulations and
ignore the driving recommendations.
•
Traffic signs and traffice regulations always have priority over the driving
recommendations provided by the navigation system.•
Route guidance is subject to constant
changes, particularly to information
relating to one-way streets, pedestrian
zones etc. stored on the navigation
DVD. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stopping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not included in the radi
o navigation system.
•
Adjust your speed to suit weather, road and traffic conditions. Do not allow,
for example, the radio navigation system
to make you drive faster in fog - risk
of accident!Navigation data and the navigation DVDStore navigation data in the unit– Push the navigation DVD with
the written side facing up as far as possible into the
CD/DVD case until it is automatically dr
awn in. The unit will compare the data on
the navigation DVD with the data in th
e navigation system memory. No message
will appear if the data in the navigation
system memory of the unit is identical to
the data on the navigation DVD.
– Press the function key , to find ou
t that the storing process has been
completed.
– If the corresponding messag
e appears, press the button or press on the func-
