5.1.6 Road safety cameras and other proximity alert points
There is a special proximity warning for road safety cameras (like speed or red light cameras) and
other proximity alert points (like schools or railroad crossings). These alert points are preloaded in
Clarion Mobile Map. You can download more from www.naviextras.com or you can upload points in a
specific text file if needed.
You can also add your own alert points or edit the preloaded or uploaded points. See page 71 for
details.
The application can warn you when you approach road safety cameras like speed cameras or
dangerous areas like school zones or railroad crossings. You can set up the different alert types
individually in Sound and Warning settings (page 83).
The following alert types are available:
•
Audio warning: beeps can be played (natural voice) or the type of the alert can be announced
(TTS) while you are approaching one of these points, and an extra alert can warn you if you
exceed the given speed limit while approaching.
•
Visual warning: the type of the alert point, its distance and the related speed limit appear on the
Map screen while you are approaching one of these cameras.
For some of the alert points, the enforced or expected speed limit is available. For these points, the
audio alert can be different if you are below or above the given speed limit.
•
Only when speeding: The audio alert is only played when you exceed the given speed limit.
•
When approaching: The audio alert is always played when approaching one of these alert
points. In order to draw your attention, the alert can is different when you exceed the speed
limit.
Note!
The warning for road safety cameras is disabled when you are in a country where road
safety camera warning is prohibited. However, you must ensure on your own liability that
using this feature is legal in the country where you intend to use it.
5.1.7 Speed limit warning
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. Clarion Mobile Map is
able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your region
(ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all roads in the map.
Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Sound and Warning settings (page 83).
You can set the relative speed above which the application initiates the warning.
The following alert types are available:
•
Audio warning: you receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the given
percentage.
•
Visual warning: the current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it (for example:
).
You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.
