5 Navigation
There are two modes of navigation; Free navigation and Route Navigation.
5.1 Free navigation
In free navigation the unit does not have a planned route for you to follow, so simply plots
your GPS position on the map and then follows your movement as you drive. The unit
shows you the current time and date, as well as your current position in latitude and
longitude co-ordinates.
5.2 Route Navigation
In route navigation the unit directs you via the map and with spoken directions to your
chosen destination. In order to plan a route you need to have a valid GPS signal, this can
be easily checked by looking at the GPS reception screen on the free navigation screen. If
the icon is greyed out then there is no valid signal, if the icon is white with green signal
waves then you have a valid GPS signal and navigation is possible.
