OPERATION

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). ƒ : Save an address in the personal address book.

‰ : Jump to menu “Special dest.”. ➽ page 48.

¡ : Delete the character entered last.

Š: Direct input of road name without previously entering the name of the city (depending on map CD).

Z: 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”.

✎The input methods depend on the map CD inserted. Not all map CDs support this function.

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”.
