When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the recommended route. If lane information is available in the map data, Clarion Mobile Map displays the lanes and their directions using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you need to take.
Where additional information is available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are displayed at the top of the map. The color and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you can see above road or by the roadside. They show the available destinations and the number of the road the lane leads to.
All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no recommended route). When navigating a route, only the signpost that points to the lane(s) to be taken is displayed in vivid colors; all others are darker.
If you want to hide the currently displayed signposts, tap any of them and the normal Map screen returns until new signpost information is received.
2.2.3.4 Junction viewIf you are approaching a freeway exit or a complex intersection and the needed information exists, the map is replaced with a 3D view of the junction. The lanes you need to take are displayed with arrows. Signposts can also be present if information is available.
If you want to hide the currently displayed junction, tap the picture and the Map screen returns.
2.2.3.5 3D object typesClarion Mobile Map supports the following 3D object types:
Type | Description |
3D terrain | 3D terrain map data shows changes in terrain, elevations or depressions in the land |
| when you view the map in 2D, and use it to plot the route map in 3D when you |
| navigate. Hills and mountains are shown in the background of the 3D map, and |
| illustrated by color and shading on the 2D map. |
