navigation system SKODA OCTAVIA 2011 2.G / (1Z) Amundsen Infotainment Navigation System Manual

NAV mode (Navigation)
Overview
Before using the radio navigation system Street and location names can be changed. It is therefore possible under excep-
tional circumstances that the names stored in the navigation data might not cor-
respond to the changed names.
In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and which are therefore not inclu-
ded in the navigation data, the radio navigation system will try to continue provid-
ing guidance to the destination. Please note that under these circumstances the
guidance to the destination may not be completely correct if, for example, one-
way streets and road categories (motorway, country road etc.) are not at all or on-
ly partially included in the navigation data used.
The route calculated by the radio navigation system is a recommendation for
reaching the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets, lane changes, bodies of water and fer-
ries, railways etc. Ð
Safety instructions for the operation of the navigation system WARNING
● Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving! Inattention by the
driver can lead to accidents and injuries. As the driver you are fully responsible
for road safety.
● The following must always have priority over the driving recommenda-
tions:
–the road traffic legislation, even if the driving recommendations contra-
dict the StVO,
– the actual acknowledgement of traffic signs, light signals or signs
placed by the police at the relevant location,
– the facts and circumstances prevailing at the relevant location.
● Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving. WARNING (Continued)
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations always have priority over the driving
recommendations provided by the navigation system.
● Route guidance is subject to constant changes, particularly to information
relating to one-way streets, pedestrian zones etc. stored in the navigation da-
ta. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stop-
ping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not in-
cluded in the radio navigation system.
● Adjust your speed to suit weather, road and traffic conditions. Do not al-
low, for example, the radio navigation system to make you drive faster in fog -
risk of accident!
● Only if the traffic situation allows it should you operate the radio naviga-
tion system with its wide range of possibilities.
● The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situations,
e.g. due to road works or out of date navigation data. In such a case, always
observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommendations. Ð
General The route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or
change the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommenda-
tions can only then be re-transmitted.
When entering an address (city, 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 last voice response can be repeated by pressing the button 15 . The volume of
a navigation recommendation can be changed whilst it is being made.
The GPS satellites will not be able to reach the aerial once you are in a tunnel or
underground garage. The unit will orientate itself via the wheel sensors. 18

Note
● All dtns. (country-, village-, road-, point of interest names) must be entered in-
cluding all country specific (or language-specific for points of interest) special
characters.
● Depending on the country, some functions of the radio navigation system can
no longer be selected on the screen at certain speeds. This is not a malfunction,
but corresponds to the legal requirements of this particular country. Ð
Navigation data and the memory card The navigation data are already available after the memory of the navigation sys-
tem is switched on first and can be used directly for navigation.
Update navigation data
– Remove the mechanical copy protection from the memory card.
– Insert a memory card ⇒  page 12, Inserting and removing the memory card
The following appears automatically after you insert the memory card: Assign - as-
signs the memory card to the navigation system. For licensing reasons, the memo-
ry card is assigned to your radio navigation system and cannot be used in a differ-
ent navigation system.
■ Use SD - use the navigation data directly from the memory card. If you want to
use navigation data from other regions which differs from the data stored in
the memory of the navigation system, you can also use data directly from the
memory card for guidance. This means you have two different sets of naviga-
tion data at your disposal. This means it is not necessary to copy the naviga-
tion data from the memory card to the memory of the radio navigation system.
■ Install - copies the navigation data from the memory card to the internal mem-
ory of the navigation system. The
“old” navigation data in the internal memory
of the navigation system are deleted. Data cannot be recovered once deleted
⇒  .
No navigation data is available during copying. The copy process takes around 2
hours.
Do not remove the memory card during the process of copying data from the
memory card to the internal memory of the radio navigation system! You can
damage the memory card Manual copying
If you insert the memory card with valid navigation data but the copy process
does not

start automatically, you can start it manually.
Press the button NAV →

Dynamic route guidance with TMC use The prerequisite for dynamic route guidance is being able to receive a TMC traffic
radio station for the navigation area. Received TMC traffic reports are shown in a
list
⇒ page 25, Displaying TMC traffic reports

.
When the dynamic route guidance is activated, the route calculation includes pos-
sible TMC traffic notifications.
Traffic problems received via TMC which affect the route are displayed in the map
by means of a coloured symbol. Traffic problems, which do not affect the route,
are displayed in the map by means of a grey symbol. The positioning of the TMC
symbol shows the beginning of a traffic disruption and the direction, when the
TMC traffic report is able to clearly define both.
When the function Dynamic Route ⇒ page 20, Settings in the (NAV) Navigation
mode is activated and the radio navigation system calculates a time advantage for
driving around the traffic disruption along the route, an alternative route is calcu-
lated automatically.
When recalculating the route, a corresponding navigation announcement is out-
put. The same announcement is made when there was a traffic disruption in the
original route calculation which has since been removed. Note
● Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not al-
ways offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested.
● If a traffic disruption was not yet entered via the TMC traffic reports, route dis-
ruptions can also be entered manually ⇒ page 23,

■ Details - display the details for a selected traffic report
Press the button  - display the name of the TMC station currently being received.
Traffic problems are illustrated in the detailed display and in the map by a corre-
sponding symbol. The direction, in which the traffic problem is found in the map, is
displayed in colour. A traffic problem which is located on the route (in direction of
travel) is marked in red, a traffic problem in the opposite direction is marked in
grey. Note
● If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
ports are updated continuously in the background. The station you are listening to
does not have to be a TMC station.
● TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation
system when navigation data are available for the driven area.
● The accuracy of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traf-
fic reports. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for
the content.
● TMC traffic reports are necessary for the dynamic route guidance.
● Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not al-
ways offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested. Ð
