Navigation
14Navigation OverviewHow does the navigation system work, and how is it operated?
An optimal route is defined using sensors, satellites and
traffic reports and the driver is then guided to his or her
destination.The current vehicle position is determined using a system of satellites
(GPS - Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure
distances that have been driven. Measured values are compared using
the detailed map material on the navigation CD and corrected with the
assistance of TMC traffic announcements as necessary. An optimal route
to the destination is determined in this way.
Navigation announcements and direction arrows shown on the screen
and in the combi-instrument guide you safely and conveniently to your
destination. You can drive to a given address in towns you are unfamiliar
with, or drive to the nearest garage or be guided to a hotel.
In this chapter, answers can be found to the following questions:x
What rules do I have to keep to when using the navigation system?
Ÿ page 14, “Safety”
x
How do I use the navigation CD? Ÿpage 15, “The navigation CD”

x
What happens if I leave the recommended route? Ÿpage 15,

x
Can a navigation announcement be repeated? Ÿpage 39,

x
How does the radio navigation system respond when driving in an
underground car park or a tunnel? Ÿpage 15, “General notes”
x
How do I enter destinations? Ÿpage 17, “Destination entry”
x
How can I enter garages, restaurants or hotels as destinations?
Ÿ page 21, “Special destinations close to the address”
x
Can I store destinations in a memory? Ÿpage 23, “Destination
memory”
x
What parameters can I set for route calculation? Ÿpage 27, “Param-
eters for route calculation”
x
What can I see on the screen? Ÿ page 32, “Map and symbol displays”
x
Can I stop the route guidance function before I reach my destination?
Ÿ page 38, “Route guidance”
SafetyThe navigation system determines the position of the vehicle, the direction
and distance and the route to a selected destination without taking traffic
regulations into account. Navigation recommendations are given as
announcements by the system. Direction arrows are also shown on the
screen. The destination is entered when the vehicle is stationary. The
route guidance function is designed for cars and is thus unsuitable for
larger commercial vehicles.

WARNING
x
Please observe the laws of road traffic legislation when
following the recommendations made by your navigation system.
x
Route guidance is subject to constant changes despite the
information about one-way streets, pedestrian zones etc. stored on
the navigation CD. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of
way signs, parking and stopping restrictions as well as lane
constrictions is not included in the navigation system. Traffic signs
and legislation always have priority over the recommendations
made by the system.
x
Adjust your speed to suit road traffic conditions and also
weather and visibility conditions. Do not drive faster in fog, for
example, if the navigation system tells you to do so.
The navigation CDInserting the navigation CD
– Press the button Ÿpage 2, fig. 1 to eject any CD in the
CD slot.
– Remove the CD and insert the navigation CD with the written side facing up.
– Push the CD into the slot until the radio navigation system pulls it in. The program stored on the navigation CD is loaded.
Do not remove the navigation CD before the loading process
is finished.
The navigation CD contains a digitalised road map. The extent to which
small villages, streets and house numbers are contained on the CD
depends on the CD version.
The content of the CD is constantly being updated. You will receive infor-
mation on new updates at your next Škoda Service. You will need a new
navigation CD for every country that you travel to.
Note
If the text CD ? is displayed in the small marking above the button,
the CD inserted in the CD drive can not be read.General notesYou can continue to listen to the radio or CD (via the CD changer) whilst
you are being guided to your destination.
When entering an address (town, street), only those letters or symbols
which make up a logical entry will be presented. A list of possible names
will be shown. Do not forget to enter the blank space in names made up
of more than one word, such as High Wycombe.
The route will be recalculated if you leave or disregard the route that was
originally calculated. This process takes only a few seconds.
The last announcement made can be repeated. The volume of a naviga-
tion recommendation can be changed whilst it is being made.
A variety of different information on the route can be called up during
active route guidance. The scroll function can be used to page through
lists shown on the screen, either line by line or page by page.
If the display Off Road appears on the screen, it means you are located
on a non-digitalised street, e.g. on a farm track. The GPS satellites will not
be able to reach your antenna when you are in a tunnel or underground

NoteThe next section of the map will be shown after a few seconds when the
crosshair is moved to the side of the screen.Position destination
A destination can be entered using the exact coordinates
for longitude and latitude.–Press Ÿpage 17, fig. 14 if you want to enter
your destination using coordinates.
– Turn the menu button to set the figure.
– Press the menu knob. The orange square will disappear and a orange frame appears. – Move the orange frame to the arc minutes and then to the
hundredth of an arc minute.
– Press the menu knob again and enter the required figure.
Great Britain, for example, lies between 50° and 59° northern latitude and
2° and 8° eastern longitude. The route guidance function cannot be
started if the figures entered are not within this area and the navigation CD
for Great Britain has been entered. Use the following data to estimate the
position of your location:
for latitude, 1° corresponds to approximately 111 km, 1 arc minute approx-
imately 1.85 km and 1 hundredth of an arc minute approximately 18.5 m
for longitude, 1° corresponds to approximately 69 km, 1 arc minute
approximately 1.15 km and 1 hundredth of an arc minute approximately
11.5 m
Note
If you set the longitude higher than 180° or lower than 0°, the E will be
replaced by a W (western longitude). Latitudes can be set from 90°N via
0° to 90°S and back only.

Parameters for route calculationRoute options
– Press in the Navigation main menu Ÿpage 16,
fig. 13 .A short route might be quicker for your purpose in larger towns or cities
where there are a lot of traffic jams. Route options can be altered whilst
the route guidance function is active. The changed parameters will be
used as a basis for the calculation of the remaining journey.
Function keys in the route option menux
fast or short : Determines whether a fast or short route should be
calculated.
x
dynam. : Dynamic route guidance responds to traffic reports broadcast
by TMC stations. This function will automatically guide you round traffic
jams or blocked roads.
, or – Determines whether motorways, ferries or toll
roads should be used. These options will, however, be used for calculation
if there is no other logical route to the destination (e.g. an island is to be
used without using a ferry).
– Stores the selected settings for future route guidance usage.
Dynamic route guidance
An announcement that there are traffic jams on your route will be made if
a traffic jam is registered. You will also be warned directly before the traffic
jam itself.
Once the dynamic route guidance function has been activated you will be
informed that the route is being recalculated due to traffic problems if any
have been registered.
Traffic problems are indicated by a symbol on the map:

The navigation system will calculate the quickest possible route when the

through a traffic jam if the diversion would be longer. Note
x
The dynamic route guidance option will only function if you are
receiving at least one TMC radio station.
x
The radio navigation system will automatically look for a new TMC
station if you leave the reception area of the one you are using. The station
you are listening to, however, does not have to be a TMC station.
x
The dynamic route guidance option will always use motorways, ferries
and toll roads.

The quality of the dynamic route guidance depends on the information
contained in the traffic announcements. The radio stations broadcasting
this information are responsible for the content.
