Info Points function
Some C-IQ CDs support your navigation system’s Info Points function with a visual and
audible indication of important points along your route. Different providers of travel
and traffic information have optimised these specifically for navigation systems. This
includes information about fixed speed camera installations or other safety relevant
information (e.g. red light cameras etc.) and places of interest to tourists. If you have
activated such a product by means of a C-IQ access code, the Info Points function can
be activated and deactivated.
☞
Activate the Info Point function using the “SETUP –> Navigation –> Info points”
menu.
✎
As you approach an Info Point, the navigation system displays a corresponding mes-
sage about the appropriate point.
✎
“INFO” will give you more details about this Info Point. With some categories (e.g.
in the case of hotels and restaurants), it is possible to transfer the Info Point directly
into the guidance facility and plan a route to it.
✎
Using the Info Points function in conjunction with the fixed speed camera informa-
tion will help you increase your awareness as you drive through areas which have
been classified by the authorities as particularly relevant to safety. Although every
care has been taken, comprehensive coverage cannot be guaranteed.
Travel info
Through the “Travel info” function you have easy access to travel guide information
from various suppliers. Depending on the map CD you have loaded and the activated
C-IQ travel products, a variety of information can be called up from external providers.
This could be hotel, restaurant and shopping guides and tourist information, for exam-
ple.
A search engine is used for searches within the travel info. This has a similar structure
to the search engines on the internet.
The information displayed may contain text, links, addresses and telephone numbers.
You can transfer the address of a hotel to the navigation system directly from the
travel guide, for example.
