2.3.3 The planned route
The planned route is the currently navigated route. Whenever the destination is set, the route
is active until you delete it, reach your destination or suspend navigation. Alpine Navigation
System displays the route in the following ways:
Symbol
Name
Description
Current GPS position
and starting point
It is your current position displayed on the map.
If a vehicle is selected for route calculation and roads
are near, the arrow jumps to the nearest road.
The dot near the arrow shows the exact GPS position.
Normally, if GPS position is available, the route starts from
the current position. If there is no valid GPS position, Alpine
Navigation System uses the last known position as the
starting point.
Waypoint
(intermediate
destination)
It is an intermediate destination of the route before reaching
the final destination.
Destination (end
point)
It is the final destination of the route.
Route colour
The route always stands out with its colour on the map, both
in daytime and night colour modes.
Streets and roads
that are excluded
from the navigation
You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain
road types (page 65). However, when Alpine Navigation
System cannot avoid such roads, the route includes them
and shows them in a colour that is different from the route
colour.
Streets and roads
that are affected by
traffic events
Road segments may be affected by traffic events. These
streets and roads are displayed in a different colour, and
small symbols displayed along the route show the type of the
traffic event.
2.3.4 Turn preview and next street
When navigating a route, the top section of the Navigation view shows information about the
next route event (manoeuvre) and the next street or the next town.
There is a field in the top left corner displaying the next manoeuvre. Both the type of the
manoeuvre (turn, roundabout, exiting motorway, and so on) and its distance from the current
position are displayed.
