Description

The TravelPilot EX-V navigation system is an independent sys-

tem with an integrated gyroscope. After a destination has been

entered and activated, the system delivers visual driving recom-

mendations as pictograms on a colour monitor and spoken driv-

ing information via a separate speaker well in advance of any

turns or changes in driving direction required. In this way, the

system guides the motorist from his/her starting point on the best

route to the selected destination.

All of the available functions are described in the specifications

of the DVD-ROM used.

Notes on how the system functions

The TravelPilot is equipped with an automatic calibration

feature which is required to determine the current vehicle

position. Depending on the GPS reception available, the

calibration is completed after the vehicle has been driven

approx. 15 km. Driving along a winding route (in the city),

which is indicated on the monitor on a map, accelerates the

calibration.

The speedometer signal connection in the vehicle allows the

system to determine the distance driven. If there is no speed-

ometer signal, it will be necessary to have a route sensor in-

stalled by an authorised customer service centre.

In this case, you will have to order a sensor kit (route sen-

sor, magnet strips, bracket, plug and installation instruc-

tions) from your dealer.
