Description 

 

A triangle in orange depicts the current position. 
If you display a planned or loaded route and the 
designated starting point is not the same as your 

current position, then the current position may not be 
displayed in the preview. 

 

The route is highlighted in orange. 

 

The destination is marked with a small flag. 
The starting point and each stop on the route will be 

marked with a little flag if you display a planned or 
loaded route. 

 

You will see the entire route in a small info box 
including the estimated trip time and the estimated 

time of arrival. 
If you display a route this information is displayed for 
each stop on the route. 

 

 

Note: This information can be faded in or out. Refer to chapter 
"Configuring Mobile Navigator" on page 83. 

 

 

Tap on the Show Turn-by-Turn List button if you would like to 

display and view a detailed description of the calculated route. 

 

For more detailed information please refer to "Turn-by-Turn List" 
on page 74. 

 

 

Tap on the Start Navigation button to start the trip. 
Displaying planned or loaded routes may result in the route being 
recalculated. Your current location will be used as the starting 

point for the calculation. The navigation will initially guide you to 
the first designated stop on the route. 

 

 

Tap on the 

 (Volume) button to adjust the volume of the 

navigation instructions. (refer to chapter "Volume", page 16) 

 

 

Tap on the 

 (Destination search) button to display the map 

in the Destination search mode. 

 

Refer to chapter "Map in the Destination search mode" on 
page 65 for more information. 

 

 

Tap on the 

 (Back) button to return to the window that was 

previously open.
