    NAVIGATION MODE >>>Navigation ModeWhat is navigation?The term "navigation" (lat. navigare = totravel by sea) is generally understood tomean the determination of a vehicleslocation, the determination of itsdirection and its distance from thedesired destination and the requiredroute to get there. Stars, prominentlandmarks, compasses and satellitesetc. are used as navigation tools.With the Navigation device, the locationis determined by the GPS receiver. TheGlobal Positioning System (GPS) wasdeveloped during the 1970s by the USmilitary as a weapons guiding system.GPS is based on a total of 24 satelliteswhich orbit the Earth and transmitsignals. A GPS receiver receives thesesignals and calculates its distance to theindividual satellites based on the signaltravel times, and then determines yourcurrent geographical position.

    Signals from at least three satellites arerequired to determine your position;your height above sea level can becalculated if signals are received fromfour or more satellites. The Navigation device determines thedirection and distance from thedestination using a navigation computerand a digital street map held in itsinternal memory.For safety reasons, route guidance isgiven predominantly in spoken form.This is supported by a direction indicatorand a map display on the touch screen.

    Safety instructions Road traffic regulations always take

    priority. The navigation system is merely an aid, data/information may in select cases be incorrect. The driver must decide in each situation by him- or herself if he or she will follow the directions. No liability will be assumed for incorrect directions provided by the navigation system.

    When first put into use it can take up to 30 minutes to fix the position.

    Observation of traffic signs and local traffic regulations must always take priority.

    Traffic guidance is restricted to passenger vehicles. Special driving recommendations and regulations for other vehicles (e.g. commercial vehicles) are not included.

    Destinations may only be entered when the vehicle is stationary.
