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
G
• 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.

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.”

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).

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.
