A The system does not take the relative safety of the suggested routes into consideration.
4 General information Functions of your navigation system By buying this Multimedia System you have purchased a high-performance instrument which has been designed to assist drivers in daily traffic. Simply enter the destination prior to setting off, activate “Guidance” and you are ready to go. The navigation system will provide driving instructions in audible and visual form. The system is simple to use, because of the small number of operating elements and its clear menu structure.
General information 5 ■ Start-up characteristics If the vehicle has been parked for some time, the satellites will have continued on their orbits. As a result, once the ignition has been switched on, it may take several minutes before a sufficient number of satellites are being received and the system can start analysing their signals. Sufficient reception (three-dimensional position) is indicated by the satellite symbol Ù in the display in the selected text colour.
