1 Warnings and Safety information
The navigation system guides you to your destination using the GPS receiver. The
navigation system does not transmit your GPS position and you cannot be tracked.
It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so.
If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate the
navigation system before you start your journey. Plan the route before
your departure and stop if you need to change the route.
Drive the vehicle according to the road signs and the road shape. If you deviate from
the recommended route, the navigation system changes the instructions accordingly .
For more information, consult the End-User Terms (page 88).

2.4.3.6 Elements of the active route
The navigation system shows the route in the following way:
Symbol NameDescription
Current car position
markerIf there is a road close by, a blue-colored
arrow symbol moves to the road which is the
closest.
The red mark present around a blue-colored
arrow symbol indicates the correct GPS
information. It may be indicated away from
the road because there is no existing road
information.
Waypoint
(intermediate
destination) An intermediate destination of the route
before reaching the final destination.
Destination (end
point)
The final destination of the route.
Route color The route always stands out with its color on the map, both in daytime and in nighttime
mode.
Streets and roads
that are excluded
from the navigation You can choose whether you want to use or
avoid certain road types (page 82). However,
when the navigation system cannot avoid
such roads, the route will include them and
it will show them in a color that is different
from the route color.
Streets and roads
that are affected by
traffic events Road segments may be affected by traffic
events received. These streets and roads are
displayed in an alternate color, and small
symbols displayed along the route show the
type of traffic event.
Some functions are not available depending on some countries and regions.

5 Glossary
Active route
The currently navigated route. Whenever a destination is set, the route is active until
you delete it or reach your destination. See also: Route.
City
Center
The city center is not the geometric center of the city but an arbitrary point the
map creators have chosen. In cities and villages, it is usually the most important
intersection; in larger cities, it is one of the important intersections.
Color
theme
The navigation system has different color themes for daytime and nighttime which
can be selected as desired.
One daytime scheme and one nighttime scheme is always selected for the map and
for the menus.
The navigation system uses them when it switches from day to night and back.
GPS
accuracy
Several factors have impact on the deviation between your real position and the one
given by the GPS device. For example, signal delay in the ionosphere or reflecting
objects near the GPS device have a different and varying impact on how accurately
the GPS device can calculate your position.

the GPS device can calculate your position.
Map
The navigation system works with digital maps which are not simply the
computerized versions of traditional paper maps. Similarly to paper road maps, the
2D mode of digital maps show you streets, roads, and elevation by colors.
In 3D mode, you can see the altitude differences, for example valleys and
mountains, elevated roads, and in selected cities 3D landmarks and 3D buildings are
also displayed.
You can use digital maps interactively: you can zoom in and out (increase or
decrease the scale), you can tilt them up and down, and rotate them left and right. In
GPS-supported navigation, digital maps facilitate route planning.
North-up
map orientation
In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This is the
orientation for example in Find on Map.
Road
Safety Camera
This function is not available in some countries and regions.
Special alert points for speed, red light or bus lane cameras. Dif ferent data sources
are available. You can configure the navigation system to warn you when you
approach one of these cameras.
Detecting the location of Road Safety Cameras is prohibited in certain countries.
It is the sole responsibility of the driver to check whether this feature can be used
during the trip.
The software is capable of showing and warning for more than just cameras. Various
other types of proximity alert points like school zones and railway crossings are also
available.
Route

A sequence of maneuvers (for example, turns and roundabouts) to reach the
destination. The route contains one start point and one or more destinations.
Track-up
map orientation
In Track-up mode the map is rotated so its top always points in the current driving
direction. This is the default orientation in 3D map view mode.
V

ehicle
marker
The current position is indicated by a blue arrow on the map. The direction the blue
arrow is pointed indicates the current heading.
