Entering letters
Characters are entered by selecting letters from a list.
In the following, this type of entering will simply be
called “typewriter”.

Non-selectable letters are displayed as dots and will
be passed over automatically by the cursor.
Options for entering characters
The line at the bottom of the display displays command symbols which allow you to
perform the following functions:
ƒ
: Save an address in the personal address book.
‰
: Jump to menu “Special dest.“. See page 45.
¡
: Delete the character entered last.
£
: Cancel entry of address and return to destination entry menu.
¯
: Display a list of database items.
®
: End of destination input and automatic start of guidance.
–
: Accept the data entries and go to the next input step.
OK
: Accept the data entries (e. g. when entering CD tracks).
Depending on information already entered, one or more options may not be selectable
(grey).
Intelligent “typewriter”
When you enter names of cities and roads or special destinations, the system compares
the character string already entered with all database entries on the map CD.
Once you select a character, you will notice that only certain letters remain displayed.
The navigation system automatically completes entries if only one possible entry is left.
Different input methods
The database allows you to enter the different parts of compound city or road names
in varying sequence.
Thus, you may begin entering “Frankfurt am Main” by inputting “MAIN” or “AM.”
Entering special characters
The typewriter provides the space and the period and, depending upon the language
selected, certain country-specific accented characters.
For “ß,“ enter “ss“. The system will the automatically recognise the “ß“, if there is an
entry containing an “ß“.
