Navigation
General frame
How does the navigation system work, and how is it
operated?
An optimal route is defined using sensors, satellites and
traffic reports and the driver is then guided to his or her desti-
nation.
The current vehicle position is determined using a system of satellites (GPS -
Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure distances that
have been driven. Measured values are compared using the detailed map
material on the navigation CD and corrected with the assistance of TMC traffic
announcements as necessary. An optimal route to the destination is deter-
mined in this way.
Navigation announcements and direction arrows shown on the screen and in
the combi-instrument* guide you safely and conveniently to your destination.
You can drive to a given address in towns you are unfamiliar with, or drive to
the nearest garage or be guided to a hotel.
