1 Warnings and Safety information The navigation system helps you find your way to your destination with the built-in GPS receiver. The software does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you. It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate your software before you start your journey. Plan the route before your departure and stop if you need to change the route.

5 Reference Guide On the following pages you will find the description of the different concepts and menu screens of the software. 5.1 Concepts 5.1.1 Smart Zoom Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature: • While following a route: when approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognise your manoeuvre at the next junction.
5.1.4 Route calculation and recalculation Your software calculates the route based on your preferences: • • Route planning methods: • : Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually the best selection for fast and normal cars. • : Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes. It can be practical for slow vehicles. • : Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings (page 89).
• Roads are used only if access for cars with a trailer is allowed. • Private roads and resident-only roads are used only if they are inevitable to reach the destination. • Walkways are excluded from routes. • : • Manoeuvre restrictions and directional constraints are taken into account when planning a route. • Roads are used only if access for cars is allowed. • Private roads and resident-only roads are used only if they are inevitable to reach the destination.
Real-time Traffic events are also taken into account and sometimes greatly modify the route. Your software automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed itinerary or if a newly received Traffic event concerns a part of the recommended route. For further information about Route settings, see page 89. 5.1.5 Green routing Route calculation is not only about finding the quickest or shortest route.

5.3.3 Traffic settings The recommended route is not always the same between two points. Whenever suitable data exists, traffic information can be taken into account in the route calculation. Button Description Use this switch to enable or disable the TMC receiver that can receive real-time traffic information. The rest of the buttons below are all related to the TMC function and are available only if the receiver is enabled. Normally you do not need to tune to a station with TMC data.
To let the route fit your needs, you can also set which road types are to be considered for or to be excluded from the route if possible. Excluding a road type is a preference. It does not necessarily mean total prohibition. If your destination can only be accessed using some of the excluded road types, they will be used but only as much as necessary.

Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings (page 89). Travel cost and CO2 emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account. For vehicle types where Green routing is not available, this method combines the benefits of Fast and Short: The software calculates as if it were calculating the Fast route, but it takes other roads as well to save fuel.
Button Description Switch the map view between a 3D perspective view and a 2D topdown view. Adjust the basic zoom and tilt levels to your needs. Three levels are available. When selected, the map zooms out to show an overview of the surrounding area if the next route event (manoeuvre) is far. When you get close to the event, the normal map view returns.

6 Glossary 2D/3D GPS reception The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to calculate its (your) position and needs at least four signals to give a three-dimensional position, including elevation. Because the satellites are moving and because objects can block the signals, your GPS device might not receive four signals.
North-up map orientation In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This is the orientation for example in Find on Map. Road Safety Camera Special alert points for speed, red light or bus lane cameras. Different data sources are available. You can configure the software to warn you when you approach one of these cameras. Detecting the location of Road Safety Cameras is prohibited in certain countries.
