route (an orange line), and the surrounding
map area.

Vehimarker is transparent.You see colored dots circling around a
satellite symbol in the top left corner. The
more green dots you see, the closer you are
to get the valid GPS position.
When GPS position is available, the
Vehimarker is displayed in full color, now
showing your current position.
There are screen buttons and data fields
on the screen to help you navigate.
During navigation, the screen shows route
information.
The
button gives quick access to
frequently used functions. You can change
the available functions in Settings.By default, only one data field is displayed in
the bottom right corner. Tap this field to see all

suppress others and display only the selected
one.

navigating an active route and when you have
no specified destination (the orange line is not
displayed).

Driving
3. ON-ROAD
NAVIGATION
When first started, MMES calculates routes
using the road network of the high quality
vector maps provided with the product.
You can set up your route in different ways:
If you need a route for immediate
navigation, you can select the destination
and start navigating to it right away (normal
navigation).
You can also plan a route independently of
your current position.
You can plan routes with multiple destinations.
Select the first destination. Then select a
second destination and add it to your route
to create a multi-point route. You can add as
many destinations to your route as you like.
You can also use MMES for off-road
navigation. For details, see page 59.
Selecting the destination
of a route
MMES offers you several ways of choosing
your destination:
Enter a full address or a part of an
address, for example a street name
without a house number or the names of
two intersecting streets (page 29). Enter an address with ZIP code (page 37).
This way you do not need to select the
name of the city/town and the search for
street names might be faster as well.
Use a built-in Place of Interest as your
destination (page 39).
Select a location on the map with the Find
on Map feature (page 47).
Use a previously saved Favorite
destination (page 47).
Select a location from the History of
previously used destinations (page 49).
Enter the coordinate of the destination
(page 49).
qEntering an address or a
part of the address
If you know at least a part of the address, it is
the quickest way to select the destination of
the route.
Using the same screen, you can find an
address by entering:
the exact address, including house number
the center of a city/town

the midpoint of a street
any of the above, starting the search with
the ZIP code (page 37)
