6.4.2 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, Alpine Navigation Software
displays the lanes and their directions using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Arrows in yellow
represent the lanes you need to take.
Where there is additional information available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are always
displayed at the top of the map. The colour 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 that signpost is displayed in vivid colours that points to the lane(s) to be taken; all others
are darkened out.
