2.4 Map screen
2.4.1 Navigating on the map
The data fields are different when you are navigating an active route and when you
have no specified destination (the burgundy line is not displayed).
FieldDescription
Shows the speed limit of the current road if the map
contains it.
Shows the distance you need to travel on the route before
reaching your final destination.
Shows the estimated arrival time at the final destination of
the route.
If the navigation system is capable of receiving live traffic
information, the calculation takes into account traffic
delays affecting your route.
This estimation can be inaccurate at times.
Some functions are not available depending on some countries and regions.

2.4.2 Position markers
2.4.2.1 Selected map location (Cursor) and selected map object
You can mark a map location in the following ways:
•
Select the map during route guidance.
•
Select the map when asked so that the destination can be confirmed after the
search is completed.
•
Select the destination from the map. (page 54)
When a map location is selected, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the
map. A symbol
with a combined crosshair and red circle is displayed for easy
visibility of any map scale size.
The location of the Cursor can be used as the destination of the route.
You can search for a POI (point of interest), or you can save it as one of your
Favorites destinations.
You can also select some of the objects on the map. If you select the map at the icon
of a POI (point of interest) or a traffic event, the object will be selected. You can
then get information about this object or use it as a route point.
Some functions are not available depending on some countries and regions.
2.4.3 Objects
on the map
2.4.3.1 Streets and roads
The navigation system shows the roads in different widths and colors so that they
can be easily identified. A
highway/freeway will be thicker and a different color than
a small street.

the next maneuver, street or city.
There is an area at the top left part of screen which indicates the next operation.

the distance from the current position.
When the next event approaches, the second event is displayed using a small icon. If
there is no second event, only the next event is displayed.
Most of these icons are very intuitive. The same symbols are used in both fields:

2.4.3.3 Lane
information and Signposts
When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane
in order to follow the recommended route. If lane information is available in
the map data, the navigation system displays the lanes and their directions using
small arrows at the bottom of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the lanes and
direction you need to take.
Lane guidance is provided constantly if there is map information. Signposts are
displayed at the top of the map. The color and style of the signposts are similar
to the real ones you see above road or by the roadside. They show the available
destinations and the number of the road the lane leads to.
When navigating a route, only the signpost that points to the lane(s) to be taken is
displayed in bright colors; all others are darker
. All signposts and lane guidance
arrows are displayed in vivid colors while driving (when there is no recommended
route).
If you want to hide the currently displayed signposts, touch anywhere and the
normal Map screen returns until new signpost information is received.
