for the current route when calculating the route
(
Ypage 53).

as the route type, the multimedia system guides
you to your destination along the updated route.
Storing destinations
General notes
If a route to a destination has been calculated,
the multimedia system saves the destination to
the last destinations memory. If the memory is
full, the multimedia system overwrites the old-
est destination. When you save the current vehi-
cle position or a crosshair position, this position
is stored in the "Last destinations" memory.
You can save destinations permanently in the
address book and on an SD card. For example,
you can save a destination as your home
address immediately after entering the address
(
Ypage 57).
