Navigation

Introduction

Fig. 158 Schematic representation: Navigation

view

A global satellite system determines the cur-

rent position of the vehicle and the sensors

mounted on the vehicle analyse the routes

taken. All measured values and possible traf-

fic events are compared with the available

maps to allow optimal navigation to the des-

tination.

on the screen when travelling above a certain

speed. It is not a malfunction, but is due to

compliance with legislation.

If the exact destination cannot be reached

because, for example, it is in a non-digitised

area, indications relating to the address and

the distance to the destination are displayed

on the screen.

Navigation announcements

Navigation announcements are acoustic indi-

cations for driving referred to the current

route.

During dynamic route guidance, you will re-

ceive information about reported traffic con-

gestion on the route. An additional navigation

announcement is provided if the route is re-

calculated due to traffic congestion.

Navigation announcements and graphic rep-

resentations will guide you to your destina-

tion.

The type and frequency of navigation an-

nouncements depend on the driving situation,

for example, starting the guide to the destina-

tion, driving on the motorway or on a round-

about and the settings.

Navigation management is carried out on the

screen.

While a navigation announcement is playing,

its volume can be adjusted. The following

navigation announcements provided will be

played with the newly adjusted volume.

Depending on the country, some functions of

the infotainment system will not be available
