window LINCOLN BLACKWOOD 2002 Navigation Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION
²After transport of the vehicle by a tow truck, car train or in a car
ferry, the navigation system may need a few minutes outdoors for
exact repositioning.
²After the vehicle battery has been disconnected, the system may need
up to 15 minutes for exact repositioning. The vehicle has to be
situated outdoors and the system has to be switched on to receive the
GPS satellites.
²The system is fully operational even without valid GPS data, but the
accuracy of positioning may decrease.
²As soon as sufficient GPS data is received, the color of the satellite
icon in the GPS window changes from red to green.
²On highways, the distance indications of the navigation system for
exits are different from those on the highway signs. The highway signs
refer to the distance to the beginning of the exit, whereas the
navigation system refers to the end of the exit. This is the point where
you must turn.
²When the vehicle is moving, only the five buttons on the console will
be active. The rotary button will be active only after selecting one of
the five buttons and only if applicable to the menu available.
