The “Route Planner” Menu
Navigation and Route Planner are basically structured in the same way. With the Navigation
function, the point of departure is always automatically set as the current GPS position. You
simply have to enter your destination. With Route Planner however, you can manually enter
the point of departure (as well as the destination). This means you can calculate routes be-
tween any points and specify the desired route before the trip.
When choosing the starting point and the destination, you can use (new)
addresses
,
favou-
rite destinations
,
previous destinations
, your home address (
Home
) or “special destina-
tions” (
POI
). A POI can only be selected if you are in the
Addresses
mode.
The process of entering and selecting addresses is described in detail in the chapter
Navigation
. The on-screen buttons in this area of the display perform the same func-
tions in
Route Planner
as in
Navigation
. These buttons and functions are extensively
described in the chapter “Navigation”.
The following section explains all the steps you need to perform: from entering
the address to starting and ending the simulation process.
In the
Navigation
and
Route Planner
modes, you can quickly and easily call up
destinations or addresses you have entered before by tapping
Previous desti-
nations
. This saves you having to type in the information again.
Starting the Navigation Simulation
Tapping the
Simulation
button starts the navigation simulation. Please note a longer peri-
od of time will be required to simulate longer routes. You can stop the simulation at any
time.
