navigation system Seat Toledo 2012 MEDIA SYSTEM 2.2

48Navigation
If navigation data are unavailable or incomplete, the navigation system may
be unable to determine the exact vehicle position. As a result, the naviga-
tion may not be as exact as usual.
Navigation area and age of navigation data
The accuracy of the data (small villages, streets and house numbers) de-
pends on the respective version for the country.
Roads and streets are subject to constant change (e.g. new roads, changes
to street names and house numbers). After some time, navigation data will
no longer be up-to-date. This may lead to inaccurate or incorrect route guid-
ance.
In the case of small villages, they may have to be searched for as Points of
Interest (POI) rather than by their name.
Map updates and different map versions (East/West Europe) are available
through SD cards. Please consult a Technical Service. 
Updating the internal navigation data memory
Fig. 43 Navigation setup
menu. The navigation data for the vehicle sales zone are stored in the internal
memory of the navigation system. This data can be used directly for naviga-
tion.
It is also possible to navigate using navigation data stored in one of the
available SD cards (please consult a Technical Service), without needing to
download the data from the SD card to the internal memory of the navigator
(this option is recommended if temporarily using a navigation database:
e.g. different geographical areas).
The navigation data in the internal memory of the system can be updated
using the SD cards available (please consult a Technical Service). Please
note that if you upload data from the SD card to the internal memory of the
navigator, the data previously stored in this memory will be deleted and
cannot be recovered
(option recommended for updating cartography).
Updating navigation data
A memory card containing updated navigation data can be obtained from
an Technical Service.
● Cancel the mechanical protection against overwriting in the memory
card.
● Inserting the memory card ⇒ page 29.
If the inserted memory card contains valid navigation data, a window opens
asking whether you wish to permanently allocate the memory card to the ra-
dio navigation system.
Due to licensing legislation, when the copy has been completed, the memo-
ry card will be allocated to this radio and navigation system and can not be
used for other radio and navigation units.
● Press the Assign
function button to continue.
Information about the navigation data installed and available on the memo-
ry card is displayed.
● Press the function button Install
to start copying the information.


Navigation
No navigation functions are available during the copying process. The copy-
ing process lasts approximately 2 hours.
Do not remove the memory card while the navigation data is being copied.
This could damage the memory card!
If the unit is switched off during the copying process, the process stops and
will start automatically when the unit is switched back on.
Starting the copying process manually
If the copying process does not start automatically after the memory card
containing valid navigation data has been inserted, the updating process
can be started manually.
● Press the NAV
unit button.
● Press the SETUP unit button.
● Activate Navigation data base by turning and pressing the setting knob
⇒ Fig. 1 10 ⇒ 
Fig. 43.
● Press the Display navigation database info function button to view the area of
navigation and the version of the navigation data stored.
● Press the Install Nav data from SD
function button to start copying the infor-
mation.
CAUTION
Do not remove the memory card while the navigation data is being copied.
This could damage the memory card! 
Navigation from the SD card
If certain navigation data is to be used only temporarily, for example a
change of geographical zone, we recommend you use the option to navi-
gate with the SD card, rather than using the internal data stored in the navi-
gator. To switch on navigation from the SD card, insert the card in the radio and
navigation unit. Please note that any active route guidance will be cancelled
when the SD card is inserted. If the memory card inserted contains valid
navigation data, a new window will open and will ask whether you wish to
download the data from the SD card to the system, or whether you prefer to
use the SD card directly.
Press the function button
Use SD
to start the process. Next, the navigation
data stored on the SD card is verified. During this process, do NOT remove
the SD card. This could damage the card.
When the verification procedure has ended, the SD card symbol  is dis-
played in the upper left-hand corner of the navigator screen. It is now possi-
ble to use the data from the SD card to calculate navigation routes.
To stop using the data from the SD card, the card must be removed correctly
from the radio and navigation unit. Do not remove the card immediately,
this could result in damage. To remove the SD card correctly, proceed as fol-
lows:
Press the SETUP
key on the radio and navigation system.
Press the function button Navigation database
Press the function button Remove SD card.
Wait until the system indicates that the SD card can be removed and
then remove it. 

Route guidance
Introduction
Once route guidance has started, the route is calculated according to the
data selected in route options.
The unit switches to the map view. You are guided to your chosen destina-
tion by announcements and visual recommendations.
If dynamic route guidance is activated, TMC traffic reports will be taken into
account in the route calculation ⇒ page 71.
The route options can be changed manually while route guidance is in pro-
gress.
All of the unit's audio sources are available during route guidance.

WARNING
The recommendations and traffic signs shown by the navigation system
may differ from the true traffic conditions.
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations have priority over the recommen-
dations and instructions given by the navigation system.
● Adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, road, traffic and
weather conditions.
 Route options

It is possible to include TMC traffic reports, exclude certain types of route
and define route criteria for the calculation of the route. The route options
can be changed while route guidance is in progress. The route will then be
recalculated. 

played.
Fig. 67 Map view during
route guidance.
When route guidance starts, the system automatically switches to the map
view ⇒ Fig. 66. The red  symbol indicates the vehicle's position and heading ⇒ Fig. 66. If
the vehicle position symbol  remains in the same position and the map view freezes, it is currently not possible to determine the vehicle's position,
e.g. in a multi-storey car park.
During route guidance the navigation route is shown as a blue line. Sec-
tions closed to traffic either manually or due to TMC messages advising of
traffic congestion
⇒ page 71 are shown in colour on the calculated route.
The next road to take is displayed in the top line of the screen.
After a few seconds, the function buttons disappear from the bottom line of
the screen to display more information on the route ⇒ Fig. 67.
● Briefly press the bottom-right or bottom-left area of the screen to display
the function buttons again ⇒ Fig. 66.

which you are travelling, this will be displayed on the map. During route
guidance, the arrow indicating a change of direction takes precedence over
the speed limit display.
Please remember that the navigation data may not be up-to-date and that
the system has limitations ⇒ page 47! The speed limit display is activated in the navigation system settings
⇒ page 74.
Points of interest on map
Depending on the programmed settings, points of interest (petrol stations,
car parks, Technical Services) will be displayed as symbols on the map
⇒ page 74.
Note
If you miss a turning during route guidance and are currently unable to turn
back, keep on driving until the navigation system offers a new route.
Note
The quality of the instructions given by the unit will depend on the naviga-
tion data used.
Note
In addition, the route is optimised with the TMC traffic news received
⇒ page 71. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsi-
ble for the content and the quality of the TMC traffic reports. 

The route list contains the names or designations of roads to be driven on
before each turning point. These are referred to below as “route sections”.
All route sections to be passed up to the next destination are displayed.
The list also shows the distance to be travelled along each route section
and the expected time required to reach the next turning point.

pears and it is possible to select the Exclude to
function button. At the same
time, display partial sections of the route within a section of the route
⇒ page 70.
When an exclusion has been entered, the route list closes.
