Navigation mode

What is navigation?

The term “navigation” (lat. navigare = to travel by sea) is generally understood to mean the location of a vehicle, the determination of the direction and distance from the desired destination and the required route. As navigation aids, stars, prominent landmarks, compass and satellites are used. With the Becker Indianapolis, the location is determined via the GPS receiver (GPS = Global Positioning System). The direction and distance from the destination are determined using a digital road map, a navigation computer and sensors. A speedometer signal and a reverse signal are additionally used to calculate the route. For safety reasons, navigation is pre- dominantly in spoken form supported by a direction indicator on the display.

Safety instructions

• Road traffic regulations always take priority. The navigation system is only an aid. Errors may occur in individual data items/entries. At all times, the driver must decide whether or not to heed the information provided. We do not accept liability for erroneous data provided by the navigation system.

• Observation of traffic signs and local traffic regulations must always take priority.

• Traffic guidance is restricted to passenger vehicles only. Special driving recommendations and regulations for other vehicles (e.g. commercial vehicles) are not included.

• Destinations may only be entered when the vehicle is stationary.

Navigation CDs

Two navigation CDs are supplied with the navigation unit. These CDs contain a digitised road map. One CD for Northern Europe (CD no. 1) and one CD for Southern Europe (CD no. 2) are supplied. The complete trunk road network and all destination centres in the digitised area of Northern and Southern Europe are available on the CDs. All digitised roads of the northern countries are also included on the Northern Europe CD. All digitised roads of the southern countries are also included on the Southern Europe CD. In these detailed areas of the Northern or Southern Europe CD road map, motorways, regional roads and unclassified roads as well as country roads are stored. Larger cities and communities are comprehensively covered. For smaller towns and communities, the regional and unclassified roads or access roads and the town centres are included.

120

Navigation mode

One way streets, pedestrian zones, turn bans and other traffic regulations are taken into account as far as possible. There may be discrepancies between the data on the navigation CD and the actual local situation, due to permanent changes to road systems and their traffic regulations.

Note:

For Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark, non-verified data has been used to achieve a high depth of digitisation; i.e. with this data, the navigation system cannot refer to information such as motorway, trunk road, 30 zone, one-way street or other traffic regulations, as this is not recorded. All roads can be used, but optimum route guidance cannot be guaranteed.

Navigation with two European CDs For example, if you wish to navigate

from a town on the Southern Europe CD

A Area of Northern Europe CD with

all digitised roads.

B For example, a town or an address

in Germany (on the Northern Europe CD).

C Area of Southern Europe CD with

all digitised roads.

D For example, a town or an address

in France (on the Southern Europe CD).

(D) to a town on the Northern Europe CD (B), enter your destination address as usual. After entering the town, you will be prompted to insert navigation CD No. 1 by the display PLEASE INSERT NAV CD 1. After inserting the relevant CD, enter the road and, if required, the house number or the town centre. The required map data is loaded and stored internally after route calculation has started.

Warning Accident hazard

Road traffic regulations always take priority when a vehicle is being driven in traffic. The navigation system is only an aid. Errors may occur in individual data items/entries. At all times, the driver must decide whether or not to heed the information provided. We do not accept liability for erroneous data provided by the navigation system.

For clarification, the following contains some examples of possible driving recommendations:

• “If possible, please turn back.”

You are driving in the wrong direction and should turn around at the earliest opportunity.

• “Please turn right after 300 metres.”

• “Prepare to turn left” or “Please merge into left lane.”

This recommendation prepares you for the next turn to be taken. “Please merge into left lane” does not mean, however, that you should immediately move into the left turn lane.

Note:

At junctions and roundabouts, only the end of the road which is to be passed is displayed.

• “Please leave the roundabout at the third exit on the right.’

This display shows you which exit (marked with the arrow) you must take at the roundabout.

• “Now drive straight ahead.”

At this point, you must drive straight ahead.

• “Please follow the direction arrows.”

This display tells you that you are currently on a non-digitised road (i.e. car park, garage, multi-storey car park) which is not contained in the digitised road map. The arrow indicates the direction of the destination as the crow flies.

• “Keep right after 2 kilometres.”

Keep right means that the road will split and that you should follow the corresponding direction of travel.

• “You have reached your destination.”

The specified destination has been reached and route guidance is terminated.

Dynamic route guidance with TMC

Note:

Dynamic route guidance is not possible in all countries. To use dynamic navigation and the functions described below, TMC must be switched on, as described under “Switching TMC on/off” on page 162. When Dynamic Route Guidance is active, the navigation system may request the Navigation CD for possible route calculation (if the Navigation CD is not inserted).

137

Navigation mode

What is dynamic route guidance?

Dynamic route guidance is used to calculate the route, taking current traffic announcements into account. The traffic announcements are transmitted by a TMC radio station in addition to the radio programme and are received and analysed by the navigation system. The reception of traffic announcements is free of charge.

Note:

As the traffic announcements are transmitted by radio stations, we cannot assume responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of the announcements.

Austria: The location and event code was made available by ASFINAG and BMVIT.

Dynamic route guidance

In the Route menu, Dynamic Route Guidance can be started by selecting START-DYN. R.. If dynamic route guidance has been activated, a continuous check is made for the presence of relevant announcements for the selected route. The route is then calculated using the “Fastest route” option, while taking into account current traffic announcements. If it is determined during these continuous checks that a traffic announcement is of relevance for the route guidance, the unit will automatically re-calculate a new route to the destination. NEW ROUTE is shown on the display. There is also the voice announcement

“The route is being recalculated due to current traffic announcements”.

is displayed inversely.

Note:

If no TMC station can be found, the display will show CURRENTLY TMC RECEPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE. The unit will switch back to the route guidance display after a short time. If no TMC stations can be found within 10 minutes, CURRENTLY TMC RECEPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE will appear on the display again and a short signal tone will sound.

Your navigation system can receive TMC information, whether a TMC station is selected or not. However, in order to guarantee optimal reception of TMC information, we recommend the selection of a TMC station.

Radio mode

Regionalisation

The RDS diversity function is independent of region. As a result, the RDS diversity function can lead to the radio switching between various regional programmes which may vary in terms of broadcasting content. In such a case, the special regional programming must be selected directly. If several regional programmes are transmitted by one station, this can only be seen when the station is selected. Stations with additional regional transmitters are indicated with a star (i.e.

Upon selection of one of these stations

4*), all receivable regional sub-

(e.g. programmes for this station will be displayed.

4*).

X Afterward, select the desired regional

sub-programme (i.e. ).

Note

If the signal quality of a regional alternative drifts despite the RDS Diversity function, it may mean that regional alternatives are only transmitted on a few frequencies. Therefore, there are fewer frequencies with strong signals available for the unit to switch to.

Traffic programme (TP)

If an RDS Diversity station broadcasts TP announcements, it is possible to interrupt CD, MP3/WMA, CDC/AUX, MW, LW, SW play or the mute mode and to switch to the TP announcements. Moreover, you can listen to one FM station while receiving TP announcements transmitted by another FM station.

There are two ways to select a TP station:

- Automatic tracking

- Direct programming Automatic tracking transmits TP bulle-

tins over the FM station currently being received. If the selected FM station has poor signal quality or cannot function as a TP station, the unit applies specified criteria to search for a new TP station.

159

Radio mode

Direct programming enables a TP sta-

tion to be programmed that is not the FM station being received. This means, for example, that a particular FM station can be listened to whilst TP announcements are received from another one. If the programmed TP station reception is poor, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the programmed TP station can be restored.

If the unit detects a TP station, this is indicated on the display by

Notes on CD-R and CD-RWs

You can play CD-Rs (writeable CDs) and CD-RW (rewritable CDs) on this unit, but please comply with legal restrictions. These restrictions may vary from one country to another. Depending on the recording device used to record the CD-R/CD-RW and / or the CD-R/CD-RW itself, it may not be possible to play some CD-Rs/CD-RWs on this unit. CD-Rs/CD-RWs must be manufactured according to the “Red Book” standard (not applicable for MP3 CDs).

Notes on copy-protected CDs

In some cases, problems may arise when attempting to play copy-protected CDs, such as long reading times or a total inability to perform playback.

MP3 mode

General notes on MP3

The music that can be played when your unit is in MP3 mode is generally copyright-protected under applicable international and national laws. In several countries, the reproduction of copyrighted material is not permitted, even if only for personal use, without the express prior consent of the copyright holder. Please check the current copyright laws for your country and comply with them. These restrictions naturally do not apply to your own compositions and recordings, or for recordings for which authorisation has been obtained from the copyright holder.

Creating an MP3/WMA storage medium

• The maximum number of tracks per medium depends on the number of folders and file name length. Here, for a full file name length, it can be assumed that for 0 folders about 240 tracks and for, e.g., 50 folders a total of around 160 tracks are possible.

• Only MP3 and WMA tracks stored on a CD in compliance with ISO 9660 can be played.

• If the artist’s name and track title are to be displayed, an ID3 tag must be added to the MP3 file. This unit supports versions ID3v1 and ID3v2.

• The display of artist’s name and track title is restricted to a total maximum length of 24 characters.

• The MP3 formats MPEG1, MPEG2 and MPEG2.5 Layer3 are supported by the unit. Fixed and variable bit rates of 8 320 kbit/s and scan rates of 8 - 48 kHz are supported. For creating MP3 files, we recommend using the MP3 encoder from Fraunhofer.

For WMA, WMA 9 with a bit rate of 64 - 320 kbit/s is supported. For creating WMA, we recommend using Windows Media Player Version 9 from Microsoft

• We recommend a bit rate of at least 160 kbit/s for compressing MP3 files. It should be noted that with MP3 files having a variable bit rate, the display of the elapsed playing time may deviate from real time.

• If both MP3/WMA data and conventional audio tracks are included on the CD it is usually referred to as a mixedmode CD. On this kind of CD the audio tracks are generally located in the first directory on the CD.

168

MP3 mode

• You can play CD-Rs (writeable CDs) and CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) on this unit, You can also use multisession CDs, but a multisession CD must be finalized before it can be played. Depending on the recording device used to record the CD-R/CD-RW and / or the CD-R/CD-RW itself, it may not be possible to play some CD-Rs/CD-RWs on this unit.

For further information about creating MP3/WMA files and ID3 tags, please consult your dealer or check on the Internet.

Note:

Due to the abundance of different kinds of CD burning software and their associated settings we cannot guarantee the playback quality of MP3/WMA CDs.

Creating a playlist

Due to the number of MP3 files that can be saved on an MP3 CD, the MP3 CD quickly becomes confusing. You can make it less confusing using playlists.

In a playlist, you can combine, for example, all the desired songs in a category (e.g. rock). This playlist can then be burned on the CD together with the MP3 files that are stored in folders. The unit recognises this playlist (several possible) on reading the MP3 CD and can then play the MP3 tracks in the order specified by the playlist. In this case, the playlist mode must be activated as described in “Switching between folder/playlist” on page 171.

We used the freeware WINAMP in our trials for creating playlists. Other programs may also be used to create playlists. The playlist formats M3U and PLS are supported by the unit.

Note:

Please not that M3U and PLS playlists are only supported by the unit if these have been created using relative specified paths.

For further information about creating playlists, please check on the Internet.

Explanation

RDS SYSTEM

This car radio is capable of receiving RDS signals (RDS = Radio Data System) on the VHF bands. RDS is a technique for the transmission of inaudible information in the VHF broadcasting range. This means that the broadcaster sends information to be analysed by the car radio.

DAS Seek Qual. level

At the level DAS Seek Qual., all receivable and identifiable RDS programmes are stored in a list sorted by quality. The dynamic autostore, search and scan search functions access this list.

DAS Seek Name level

At the level DAS Seek Name all receivable and identifiable RDS programmes are stored in a list sorted alphabetically by name. The dynamic autostore, search and scan search functions access this list.

RDS Stations level

At the level Stations RDS only identified RDS stations can be stored. The unit constantly switches to the best receivable transmission frequency for the station. During search for unit will stop only at identifiable stations.

Installation of the GPS antenna

G Risk of injury

People with pacemakers should avoid physical contact with the magnetic antenna and should not carry the antenna on their person, as this may affect the function of the pacemaker. Keep the magnetic antenna away from data storage media (disks, credit cards, magnetic cards etc.) and electronic and precision engineering equipment, as this may cause data to be deleted. Do not use the antenna in areas at risk of explosion. The antenna is to be affixed in such a manner that it cannot detach in the event of a collision or sudden braking.

Possible installation positions

• Outside the vehicle

a. Attach the antenna to a flat, pre-washed metal surface.

b. Then guide the antenna cable into the vehicle interior.

G Risk of injury

The maximum vehicle speed for the antenna if magnetically attached is 180 km/h. The antenna must be removed or specially secured at higher speeds. The antenna is not suitable for car-wash facilities.

Installation Guide

197

Installation Guide

• Inside the vehicle

The antenna can only be installed beneath a non-metallised windscreen. When selecting the installation position, ensure that the antenna has a clear view of all directions, and that it is not covered by the windscreen wipers. Obstructions caused by the bonnet, window crossbeams and roof should be avoided as far as possible.

a. Secure the antenna to the base plate (1) with magnets.

b. Remove protective strip from top of adhesive tape (2) and stick to the centre of the base plate underside.

c. Remove protective strip from bottom of adhesive tape (2) and stick the antenna and base plate onto the vehicle

console beneath the windscreen at the installation position.

198

GPS reception can be affected by screens with screen antenna, windscreen heating or thermally insulated screens. Some thermally insulated screens are coated with titanium or silver oxide. Installation of the GPS antenna in the vehicle interior can considerably impair the function of the navigation system.

Installation Guide

• Minimum requirement for the signal:

0 Hz - 4 kHz / square-wave signal (no inductive sensor) Low - level < 1.5 V, high - level 5 V - 16 V

If you do not know the exact installation position / location of the speed signal, please consult the vehicle manufacturer.

Mechanical speedometer without speed sensor in the speedometer cable

A speed sensor must be built into the speedometer cable to generate a digital speed-dependent signal.

The VDO Adapter 2152.30300000 or a vehicle-specific adapter that fulfils the minimum requirements can be used. The VDO speed sensor is suitable for direct installation on the gearbox (no further installation parts required) or in the speedometer cable (in conjunction with additional universal installation parts).

If the sealed speedometer cable is released, a correct display cannot be guaranteed. Incorrect installation leads to improper functioning of the navigation system or of the speedometer.

The unit is inserted into the installation slot and secured with the slides supplied. To install, complete all electrical connections. Then push the unit into the installation slot. Subsequently, insert slides into the openings on the front of the unit until the first detent position (Fig. A). Now lock the radio in by pulling on both slides as shown in Fig. B. Subsequently, remove the slides.

Installation Guide

The installation angle of the unit must not exceed 0° - 35° (vertical).

• Removal: To remove the unit, it must first be unlocked. To do this, push in both slides to the second detent position as shown in Figure A. Subsequently, withdraw the unit with both slides (Fig. C). Then remove the slides by pressing the springs on the right and left sides of the unit. If the unit was previously installed in another vehicle, it may be necessary to adjust the springs on the unit before installation. To adjust the springs, insert slide as shown in Fig. D and subsequently adjust as shown in Fig. E (gently press slide in the direction of 1 while at the same time moving the slide in the direction of 2).

Installation Guide

Using GPS for the first time, and sensors

• Switch on the vehicle ignition to start using GPS for the first time and for the sensor test. Switching on the unit. Enter the code (see the operation guide for a detailed description).

• Press multifunction button and multifunction button at the same time.

• This calls up the menu for the initial GPS start-up and for the sensor test.

• Move the vehicle several metres forwards or backwards for the speed signal function test.

The number under Speed must change (even at a low speed). The number under pressing the accelerator when the vehicle is parked.

• Engage the reverse gear for the reverse signal function test.

The arrows under Direction must change direction on engaging the reverse gear.

Speed should not increase when idling or

• When using the GPS for the first time, the vehicle must be parked outdoors, while ensuring that it has a clear view in all directions (not in the immediate vicinity of buildings). Information on the GPS reception is given in the right-hand part of the display. Four different messages may appear:

GPS OK: GPS reception is already available.

GPS WAIT: It is necessary to wait for GPS reception. You must

wait until

GPS ANTENNA ERRORR: The GPS antenna is not properly con-

GPS OK is displayed.

nected.

GPS MODUL ERROR: If this message is displayed, please con-

tact the hotline.

You must wait until GPS OK, F: 2 (or F: 3 ) and ALM: 22 (or a higher value) are displayed. This procedure (first reception of the necessary GPS data) may take a few minutes. The unit must remain switched on for the entire duration of this procedure. The vehicle must not be moved. If after 5 minutes there has been no change in the values, the parked position (clear view in all directions as far as possible) or the installation location of the GPS antenna must be checked.

Installation Guide

• The menu for initial GPS start-up and for the sensor test is quit by simultaneously pressing the multifunction button and multifunction button .

Installation of the Navigation Software

•Press .

• Insert the Navigation CD to install the software for the navigation system.

• After the navigation software has been installed, the adjacent display appears. The language selection is then requested.

• With the right rotary control , select language. The language selection is accepted by pressing the control.

With some languages, a selection can be made between male and female voices.

With the right rotary control , select voice. The voice is applied and installed by pressing the control.

The adjacent display appears after installation. Then press the right rotary control to confirm.

The language selection can be changed at a later time, as described in the operating guide.

Calibration

After commissioning, a calibration journey is required. During the journey, the speed signal (GAL) is automatically adapted to the vehicle-specific data and the gyro sensor is automatically adapted to the installation position of the unit. The distance to be covered depends on the type of vehicle and the local conditions.

The navigation system is only ready for operation on completion of the calibration journey. The main navigation menu is displayed. Final precision is only achieved after a further journey.

• The adjacent display appears after the language installation.

It is possible that GPS reception has deteriorated as a result of changing the vehicle position and due to obstructions. In this case, the adjacent display appears.

Adequate GPS reception must be ensured for the calibration journey. This means at least 2-D FIX. With GPS FIX 3-D the calibration will be quicker. However: a lower accuracy of the GPS signal (2-D FIX) does not lead to a poorer calibration, but instead will mean that the time and distance needed for the calibration will increase.

Installation Guide

If, even after a relatively long period of time, the display with the request

CALIBRATION RIDE CAN START! does not appear, then

207

Installation Guide

you should check the GPS reception conditions again (as under Service Mode in the Section Function test of the GPS antenna (GPS-INFO ) 210). As soon as the display with the request

START!

appears, the calibration journey can be started.

A calibration journey can also be performed in a non-digitised area. The insertion of the Navigation CD is not absolutely necessary after the navigation software has been installed. Without the Navigation CD inserted, no location is displayed.

• The basic requirement for a calibration journey is: driving 200 -

300 metres in a straight line, then turning by at least 60 degrees and then driving 200- 300 metres in a straight line again, and turning again.

The direction you turn is of no significance. If these conditions cannot be fulfilled due to the road or the fact that you do not always have optimum GPS reception, this will not lead to a poorer calibration, but will simply mean the time and distance necessary for the calibration ride will be longer. If the unit is switched off during the calibration ride, language installation is requested when the unit is switched on again. Reinstallation can be skipped by pressing the key.
