Streets and roads

The Navigation System shows the streets similarly to paper road
maps. Their width and colours correspond to their importance;
you can easily tell a motorway from a small street.

GPS Position Markers

When your GPS position is available, the Navigation System marks
your current position. By default, this marker is a blue arrow.
When on-road navigation is selected, the current position marker
may not show your exact GPS position and heading. If roads are
near, it is aligned to the nearest road to eliminate GPS position
errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of
the road.
If you select off-road navigation, the current position marker is
at your exact GPS position. The direction of the icon shows your
current heading.

The planned route

The planned route is the currently navigated route. Whenever the
destination is set, the route is active until you delete it, reach your
destination or suspend navigation. The Navigation System displays
the route in the following ways:
Symbol Name Description
Current GPS It is your current position
position displayed on the map.
and starting
point • If a vehicle is selected for route
calculation and roads are near,
the arrow jumps to the nearest
road.
• Normally, if GPS position is
available, the route starts from
the current position. If there is no
valid GPS position, the
Navigation System uses the last
known position as the starting
point.
Waypoint It is an intermediate destination
(intermediate of the route before reaching the
destination) final destination.
Destination It is the final destination of the
(end point) route.
Route Colour The route always stands out with
its colour on the map, both in
daytime and night colour modes.
Streets and You can choose whether you want
roads that to use or avoid certain road types
are excluded (page 37). However, when the
from the Navigation System cannot avoid
navigation such roads, the route includes
them and shows them in a colour
that is different from the route
colour.
Streets and Road segments may be affected
roads that are by traffic events. These streets and
affected by roads are displayed in a different
traffic events colour, and small symbols
displayed along the route show
the type of the traffic event.

Turn preview and next street

When navigating a route, the top section of the Navigation view
shows information about the next route event (manoeuvre) and the
next street or the next town.
There is a field in the top left corner displaying the next
manoeuvre. Both the type of the manoeuvre (turn, roundabout,
exiting motorway, and so on) and its distance from the current
position are displayed.
A smaller icon shows the type of the second next manoeuvre if it is
near the first one. Otherwise, only the next manoeuvre is displayed.

Manoeuvre icons

During navigation the next manoeuvre is displayed in the top left
corner. Most of the manoeuvre icons are intuitive. The following
table lists some of the frequently shown route events:
