Guidance - VDO MS 5600 Manual

Guidance

When you have entered all of the available data for the destination address, you can
start the guidance function.
For guidance purposes, it is sufficient if you enter a town/city name. The navigation
system then guides you to the town or city limit.
Select "Guidance" in the "Navigation" menu.
:
The route is planned and the guidance screen appears on the monitor.
Depending on the previously selected type, the display may be in symbol, map or
split-screen view (see also the "Screen displays" section, Page 18).
:
The navigation system will then guide you to the input destination with graphic and
audible messages.
Stopping guidance
If you are in one of the guidance screens, guidance can be stopped at any time.
Press OK.
Select "Stop guidance", and press the OK key.
Guidance in non-digitised areas
If the specified destination is not located on a digitised road, the directions will take
you to the position (linear distance) closest to the destination. The display shows the
note "The destination is outside the digitised map area". In all display modes, rather
than being provided as directions, guidance takes the form of an arrow which points
to the destination.
Guidance in partly digitised areas
In rural areas and in small towns, not all the streets may be stored on the map DVD/CD.
Whenever you leave a digitised road, the guidance screen changes. Instead of the usual
guidance information, an arrow which points in the direction of the planned route is
now shown. The linear distance to the route is shown in the status line.
Guidance in areas with limited road information
In some areas, not all road information may be available on the map DVD/CD. Thus, for
example, turn-off prohibitions, information on the direction of travel in a one-way
street or prohibited entry into a pedestrian zone may be missing. The navigation system
will display a warning if you drive into such an area. Local traffic laws always take pre-
cedence over navigation system instructions.
In the guidance screen, you will see the ! symbol, as long as you are in an area with
limited road information.
A
Always observe the road signs and motor vehicle traffic regulations.
