Entering Letters - VDO MS 4200 RS Owner's Manual

OPERATION

Entering letters

Characters are entered by selecting letters from a list.
In the following, this type of entering will simply be
called "typewriter".
Move the cursor using the cursor buttons 4, 6,
8 and 2 to the desired letter.
Confirm the selection by pressing OK.
Non-selectable letters are displayed as dots and will
be passed over automatically by the cursor.
Options for entering characters
The line at the bottom of the display displays command symbols which allow you to
perform the following functions:
c : Destination country selection (in this case, "D" for Germany).
: Save an address in the personal address book.
: Jump to menu "Special dest.". See page 48.
: Delete the character entered last.
: Direct input of road name without previously entering the name of the city
(depending on map CD).
: Cancel entry and return to the start of the destination entry.
: Display a list of database items.
: End of destination input and automatic start of guidance.
: Accept the data entries and go to the next input step.
o : Accept the data entries (e. g. when entering a CD title).
Depending on information already entered, one or more options may not be
selectable (grey).
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 "FRANKFURT" or "MAIN".
Entering special characters
The typewriter provides the space and the period and, depending upon the language
selected, certain country-specific accented characters. If you have selected a system
language for which accented characters for the names of cities and roads are not
supported, you can enter the name without accented characters (e.g. "MUNCHEN"
instead of "MÜNCHEN").
For "ß", enter "ss".
