Wordmatch Principle - BMW SERIE 5-E60-2006 Owner's Handbook Manual

Wordmatch principle

The wordmatch principle makes the input of
place names and streets easier. It compares
your destination inputs continuously with the
data stored on the navigation DVD, and reacts
even if slight discrepancies are found. This has
the following advantages for you:
> You can also input place names in a form
which differs from the official version, pro-
vided that you use a form that is familiar in
another country or language.
Example:
If you are using the German navigation DVD,
instead of the German name "München"
you can enter the English equivalent
"Munich" or the Italian equivalent
"Monaco".
> When entering place names or streets, the
system completes the name automatically
as soon as it has been identified beyond
doubt.
>
The system only accepts name entries
beginning with letters that are stored on the
navigation DVD. This makes it impossible
for an incorrect name or unknown
addresses to be accepted.
