To use Navigator as a navigation aid, your device must be
connected to a compatible GPS receiver. The GPS receiver
must receive position information from at least three
satellites to calculate the coordinates of your location.
Route guidance
To use route guidance, scroll to Navigation, and press .
Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the
GPS receiver may not receive the necessary information
from the satellites.
Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device
display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination,
and the approximate distance to it is shown inside the
compass ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route
and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in
a straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as
buildings and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences
in altitude are not taken into account when calculating
the distance. Route guidance is active only when you
move.
To set your trip destination, select Options > Set
destination, and select a landmark or waypoint as the
destination, or enter the latitude and longitude
coordinates. Select Stop navigation to clear the
destination set for your trip.
Retrieve position information
To view the position information of your current location,
connect your device to a compatible GPS receiver, scroll to
Position, and press . The GPS receiver can calculate its
location to the accuracy of meters. An estimate of the
accuracy of the location is shown on the display.
To save your current location as a waypoint or landmark,
select Options > Save position. Waypoints are locations
that you can save and use in Navigator only. Landmarks
are saved locations with more information, and they can
be used in other compatible applications and transferred
between compatible devices.
Trip meter
Scroll to Trip distance, and press . Select Options >
Start to activate trip distance calculation, and Stop to
deactivate it. The calculated values remain on the display.
Select Reset to set the trip distance and time, and average
and maximum speeds to zero, and to start a new
calculation. Select Restart to also set the odometer and
total time to zero.
Trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may
occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and
quality of GPS signals.
