Navigation
RNS 150 navigation enables you to find destinations quickly and easily without
having to study a lot of road maps. When the navigation function is active, the
voice output from the RNS 150 will guide you along the best route. The system
will warn you well in advance when you are required to make a turn. In addition,
you can also look at the display to see the driving recommendations in symbol
form as well as the remaining distance and travelling time to your destination.
Road safety is always of paramount importance. The rules of the
road always have priority over any driving recommendations given
by the navigation system.
How navigation works
The current position of your vehicle is determined by the electronic speedome-
ter signal, the gyroscope and a signal transmitted by GPS satellites (Global
Positioning System). The navigation system compares the data with the map
information stored on the navigation CD and uses this information as a basis on
which to calculate the routes for route guidance.
Starting navigation
With the system switched on, press

. The main menu for navigation will
appear. To start route guidance for navigation, there must be a navigation CD-
ROM in the CD drive and you must have entered a destination.
Destination entry

city/town, a town center, a street, an intersection and a house number as well as
by entering a number of special destinations (e.g. motorway access, train station,
etc.).
