2 General information
AVIC-S2 is a navigation system optimized for in-car use. It provides door-to-door
navigation for both single and multi-point routes using adaptable route parameters.
AVIC-S2 is capable of planning routes throughout the whole installed map set.
Unlike some other products, AVIC-S2 does not require that you change maps or
switch to a poorly detailed general map to navigate between map segments or
countries. You always have complete freedom to go wherever you wish. Just select
your destination and go.
You do not need a stylus to use AVIC-S2. All screen buttons and controls are
designed so that you can operate them with your fingertips.
You can access all functions of the program by using hardware and screen buttons.
With the help of these buttons you can travel through all the screens of the program.
Most of the screens (especially menu functions and settings) can be accessed from
several other screens, minimizing the number of actions needed to reach the desired
function.
When using AVIC-S2, you do not need to ‘double tap’ or ‘tap & hold’ the touch
screen as these functions cannot be used reliably in a moving vehicle. A single tap
triggers most of the screen controls. The only exceptions are ‘drag & drop’ for
moving the map, scaling it in Map mode (Page 28), or some Music Player functions.
Most of the screens have a Return button
in the top left corner. This arrow
returns to the previous screen or directly to one of the map screens.
Settings screens also have a Help button
in the top right corner. This will
show a detailed description of the current settings screen.
