Product information
The TravelPilot RGS 08 is an active, autonomous route
guidance system.
Using this system, you can let yourself be guided to your
required destination if a navigation CD has been inserted
that is valid for your present location and destination in
question.
Other CDs, such as the Merian Scout travel guide and
country-specific CDs, are also available.
The guidance system provides audio-visual information.
You will be given precise information over the car stereo
loudspeakers with regard to such things as when and
where to take the next road turning.
The volume and tone of the voice output can be adjusted.
The monitor displays the same information visually. Fur-
thermore, the name of the street that the vehicle is present-
ly driving down is displayed as well as the current distance
to the destination. Prior to taking a turning, the name of the
road that is to be turned into is also displayed.
If you did not follow a suggested direction, a new route to
the destination will be calculated within a few seconds. So,
for instance, this means that you can by all means take a
“secret route around the houses” that you are familiar with
even though the TravelPilot has at the time given you other
directions.
The system knows where one-way streets, areas restricted
to traffic (e.g. pedestrian precincts, etc.) and no-left or no-
right turns are situated, and takes these into account when
calculating routes for passenger cars.
