Entering characters

Characters are entered by selecting let-
ters, numbers and symbols from a list.
Hereinafter, this type of entering will
simply be called "typewriter".
Move the cursor to the desired char-
acter.
Confirm your selection.
The character will be added to the
string of characters already entered.
Non-selectable characters are displayed as dots and will be passed over automati-
cally by the cursor.
Intelligent "typewriter"
When you enter names of cities and roads or special destinations, the system compares
the character string already entered with all database entries on the map CD.
Once you select a character, you will notice that only certain letters remain displayed.
The navigation system automatically completes entries if only one possible entry is
left.
Different input methods
The database allows you to enter the different parts of compound city or road names
in varying sequence.
Thus, you may begin entering "Frankfurt am Main" by inputting "MAIN" or "FRANK-
FURT."
The input options depend on the map CD inserted. Not all map CDs support this
function.
Entering special characters
The "typewriter" provides the space and the period and, depending upon the lan-
guage selected, certain country-specific accented characters.
If you have set up a system language whereby certain characters are missing for the
city and street names you can also enter the name without special characters (e.g.
"MUNCHEN" instead of "MÜNCHEN").
