As with many of the menus,
there are more options than can
be shown on one screen. Try
selecting a few times, to
cycle through all the different
things you can do.
Your position (and direction)
is indicated by the icon.
Getting started
The application starts by displaying the navigation view.
The screen will appear in black and white until your GPS
receiver locates your current position. Once this is done,
the navigation view is shown in full color. In future, your
position will be found much faster, normally within a few
seconds. Everything can be accomplished easily using just
your finger. Importantly, you can bring up the main options
menu by tapping your finger somewhere in the middle of the
screen.
NOTE: Some newer vehicles may have a heat reflective
shield embedded in the windscreen. In some cases this
can prevent proper GPS signal reception. If this turns out
to be a problem in your vehicle, try mounting your GPS
receiver behind your rear view mirror or parcel shelf.
How to plan your first route
1. If you haven’t already done so, go outside so that the GPS
hardware can locate your position. This may take some time,
and will happen more quickly if you remain still. The screen
displays your current position on its map, represented in a
‘3D’ navigation view, from a driver’s perspective. When
you start moving, the navigation view will match the streets
outside as you would see them through your windshield.
