You can also select some of the objects
on the map. If you tap the map at the icon
of a Place of Interest or an alert point, the
object will be selected (you see a red circling
border around the object), and you can get
information about this object or use it as a
route point.
qObjects on the map
Streets and roads
MMES shows the streets in a way that is
similar to how the paper road maps show
them. Their width and colors correspond to
their importance: you can easily tell a freeway
from a small street.
Turn preview and Next street
When navigating a route, the top section of
the Map screen shows information about the
next route event (maneuver) and the next
street or the next city/town.
There is a field in the top left corner that
displays the next maneuver. Both the type of
the event (turn, traffic circle, exiting freeway,
etc.) and its distance from the current position
are displayed.A smaller icon shows the type of the
second next maneuver if it is near the first
one. Otherwise, only the next maneuver is
displayed.
Most of these icons are very intuitive. The
following table lists some of the frequently
shown route events. The same symbols are
used in both fields:
Icon Description
Turn left.
Turn right.
Turn back.
Bear right.
Turn sharp left.
Keep left.
Continue straight in the
intersection.
Icon Description
Go left on the traffic circle, 3rd exit
(next maneuver).
Enter traffic circle (second next
maneuver).
Enter freeway.
Exit freeway.
Board ferry.
Leave ferry.
(yellow)
Approaching a waypoint.
Approaching the destination.
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,
MMES displays the lanes and their directions
using small arrows at the bottom of the map.
Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you
need to take.

22
Where additional information is available,
signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are
displayed at the top of the map. The color
and style of the signposts are similar to
the real ones you can see above road or
by the roadside. They show the available
destinations and the number of the road the
lane leads to.
All signposts look similar when cruising (when
there is no recommended route). When
navigating a route, only the signpost that
points to the lane(s) to be taken is displayed
in vivid colors; all others are darker.
If you want to hide the currently displayed
signposts, tap any of them and the normal
Map screen returns until new signpost
information is received.Junction view
If you are approaching a freeway exit or
a complex intersection and the needed
information exists, the map is replaced with a
3D view of the junction. The lanes you need to
take are displayed with arrows. Signposts can
also be present if information is available.
If you want to hide the currently displayed
junction, tap the picture and the Map screen
returns.
Freeway exit services
You may need a gas station or a restaurant
during your journey. This feature displays a
new button on the map when you are driving
on freeways.
Tap this button to open a panel with the
details of the next few exits or service
stations.
Tap any of them to display the exit area on
the map. You can now easily add this exit as
a waypoint to your route if needed.
If you want to display other types of Places for
the exits, you can change the icons in Visual
Guidance settings (page 71).

3D object types
MMES supports the following 3D object types:
Type Description
3D terrain 3D terrain map data shows changes in terrain, elevations or depressions in the land when you view the map in 2D, and
use it to plot the route map in 3D when you navigate. Hills and mountains are shown in the background of the 3D map, and
illustrated by color and shading on the 2D map.
Elevated roads Complex intersections and vertically isolated roads (such as overpasses or bridges) are displayed in 3D.
3D landmarks Landmarks are 3D artistic or block representations of prominent or well-known objects.
Elements of the active route
MMES shows the route in the following way:
Symbol Name Description
Current position Your current position displayed on the map. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road.
(yellow)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 night color mode.
– Streets and roads that are
excluded from the navigationYou can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain road types. However, when MMES cannot
avoid such roads, the route will include them and it will show them in a color that is different from the
route color.

Tips on entering addresses quickly
When you are entering the name of a city/
town or a street:
Only those letters are offered on the
keyboard that appear in possible
search results. All other characters are
grayed out.
As you are typing, the most likely result
is always displayed in the input field. If
the guess is correct, tap
to select
it.
After entering a couple of letters, tap
to list the items that
contain the specified letters.
You can speed up finding an intersection:
Search first for the street with a less
common or less usual name; fewer
letters are enough to find it.
205-0010-00_QY-7375M-A_EN.indb 38205-0010-00_QY-7375M-A_EN.indb 383/12/2013 9:57:19 AM3/12/2013 9:57:19 AM

39
If one of the streets is shorter, search
for that one first. You can then find the
second one faster.
You can search for both the type and the
name of a road. If the same word appears
in several names, for example in the name
of streets, roads and avenues, you can
obtain the result faster if you enter the first
letter of the street type: For example, enter
‘PI A’ to obtain Pine Avenue and skip all
Pine Streets and Pickwick Roads.
You can also search in ZIP codes. As ZIP
codes consist of only a few characters, this
is usually faster than entering the name of
the city/town.
