The navigation system in the TravelPilot DX-R 70 helps you find your way to
destinations quickly and safely without first having to spend time studying a
roadmap. When navigation is active, you will be guided by the DX-R 70’s voice
output. The system will warn you in good time about approaching turning-off
points. In addition, the display contains visual driving recommendations, the distance to the destination, the estimated remaining driving time / arrival time or the
current clock time.
Road safety has absolute priority. Please be aware that the current way in which traffic is being directed always has priority over
the driving recommendations made by the navigation system.
How navigation works
The current vehicle position is determined with the aid of the electronic odometer, the gyro and a signal transmitted by GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites. The navigation system compares the data with the map stored on the navigation CD and uses this information to calculate your position and the routes
used for navigation.
Inserting the navigation CD
1Press the button 1 to open the control panel.
2Press the eject button B to remove a CD that may already be in the unit.
3Carefully insert the CD with the printed side uppermost into the unit’s CD
compartment. Push the CD until you feel some resistance. From this
point onwards, the CD will be drawn in automatically.
✔The software is loaded from the CD. The progress is indicated in the
display.
Note: The process of loading the software from the navigation CD
must not be interrupted.
Starting navigation
1Press the NAV button ? whilst the unit is switched on.
✔The main navigation menu opens. If a navigation session is already ac-
tive, the navigation display will appear.
Before navigation can begin, a DX navigation CD must first be inserted in the
unit and a destination selected.
Main navigation menu
Entering a destination
The destination can be entered from the destination memory or by entering a
town, a town centre, a road, a junction or house number, or by selecting a special destination (e.g. motorway junction, train station, etc.).

ENTRY menu item.
2Confirm your selection by pressing the OK button 8.
Destinations
The following destinations are allowed:
•the town centre or centre of a district in cities,
•a road,
•a junction where two or more roads intersect,
•a house or housing block.
/ buttons on the rocker switch 7 to select the DEST.
•Previously saved special destinations such as train stations, airports, petrol
stations and other public facilities. You can view a sorted list of special
destinations for the destination town, the area around a destination, on a
national level or in the vicinity of the vehicle position.
•Position markers that you have set and which have been stored in the
destination memory. This is useful if you notice an interesting location
during your journey, like a shop or restaurant, and want to be guided
back to that point at some other time.
•Destinations from the destination memory.
•Destinations from the tour list.
ENGLISH
Entering destinations using the speller
The speller is used to enter items such as town and road names in the navigation system.
The speller consists of five areas:
1the list of characters including all letters, the space character, special
characters and numbers,
2the control symbols,
3the input line,
4the match line, and
5the magnifier within which the currently highlighted characters are dis-
played in an enlarged fashion.
Selecting letters
If you want to enter a name using the speller, proceed as follows:
1Use the / and / buttons on the rocker switch 7 to move the
selection marker to the required character.
✔When you move the selection marker, the currently highlighted character
is displayed in an enlarged fashion within the magnifier.
2When the required character is highlighted, press the OK button 8.
✔The character will be entered into the input line. An appropriate entry
from the list will be displayed in the match line as you enter more and
more characters.
TIP: If you have already used the navigation system before for navigation and the first letters of the new destination town are identical to those
of a previous destination town (in this case Hanover), the town will be
displayed in the match line. This feature helps you quickly enter destinations in towns that you have visited already.
If you want to accept the town name, press the OK button 8 for longer than two
seconds. If, however, you want to enter another town name, simply continue
entering characters.
TIP: The “thinning out” speller feature is available for navigation CDs that
are labelled with a “DX”. The thinning out speller feature ensures that
letters, which cannot logically follow a letter that you have just entered,
will be hidden from view.
Switching to special character sets
If, when enter a town name, you need to use other special characters that are
not shown in the display (e.g. Ä, Ö, Ü),
1use the buttons on the rocker switch 7 to move the selection marker to

Entering a destination – from the destination memory
You can save destinations, which you drive to regularly, in the destination memory so that you can access them easily for other navigation sessions. To save
and edit destinations in the destination memory, read the section entitled “Destination memory”.
There are four different destination memories available:
-LAST 10: Memory for the last ten destinations that you drove to during
navigation. The destinations are stored automatically in the LAST 10
memory when the LAST 10 option is activated in the navigation menu.
For further information, read the section entitled “Destination memory”.
-POSITION MARK: Position markers set by you can be selected as your
destination.
-ALPH. SORTING: The destinations stored in the destination memory are
displayed in alphabetical order.
-MANUAL SORTING: The stored destinations are displayed in the specific
order set by you.
To access destinations from the destination memory,
1switch to the main navigation menu.
2Open the DEST. MEMORY menu item.
3Select the destination memory from which you would like to choose the
destination for your navigation session.
TIP: You can also access the LAST 10 destination memory using the
macro button (for further information, read the section entitled “Programming the macro button” in the “Setup” chapter).
✔Navigation begins. For further information, read the section entitled “Nav-
igation”.
Entering a destination – position marker
You can set one of your preset position markers as a destination. A position
marker is a vehicle position that you set during an active navigation session or
when you used the system to determine your position. As an example, you can
set position markers at interesting places that you want to return to on another
occasion. The navigation CD must be inserted before you can set a position
marker (for further information, read the section entitled “Setting a position marker”
in this chapter).
Selecting a position marker as a destination
You can access the last five set position markers for a navigation session directly from the destination memory.

Starting navigation
Once you enter a destination, navigation begins automatically.
If you want to begin a navigation session to the navigation system’s last destina-
tion,
1select the ROUTE GUIDANCE menu item in the main navigation menu.
2Confirm your selection by pressing the OK button 8.
TIP: You can also begin navigation using the macro button.
✔The navigation session display appears. The route is calculated. This
can take several seconds depending on the distance to the destination.
When the navigation session display appears you will hear the voice output: “The route is being calculated”. You will then hear the first navigation
voice output when the calculation is complete.
The name of the road that you are currently driving down and the name
of the road that the system suggests you should turn off into are displayed in the title line of the navigation session display.
If you leave the road network covered by the navigation CD, OFF ROAD
will be displayed in the title line.
The visual driving recommendations appear in the symbol area on left
half of the display.
TIP: You can choose between a 2D and 3D display for the driving recommendations. To switch between the display modes, keep the OK button
8 pressed until the display changes.
The approach bar appears in the centre of the display. It is a graphical
representation of the distance to the decision point. On a longer stretch
of road, the remaining distance to drive to the next decision point is displayed.
In the right of the display you can optionally display either the approximate remaining journey time to the destination, the approximate arrival
time or the current time. For further information, read the section entitled
“Selecting time info”.
The distance as the crow flies appears beneath the time display whilst
the route is being calculated. Once route calculation is complete, this
distance is replaced by the road distance to the destination.
The status of the TA traffic information announcement function and the
TMC status are displayed symbolically in a status line. For further information on the TA function, read the section entitled “Traffic announcements during navigation” in this chapter, and the sections entitled “TA
traffic announcement” and “TMC” in the “Radio mode” chapter.
The lower right-hand line in the display is used to display the active audio
source. When you are listening to the radio, this area of the display contains the station name or the frequency of the tuned station (for further
information, read “Radio mode with RDS”). If the CD changer (optional)
is active, the number of the current CD and the track number or the track
number and the track playing time are displayed here. Whilst telephone
mute is activated, PHONE will appear in this display area.
During a NO MAP navigation session, you can also use the internal CD
drive to play audio CDs. If that is the case, this display area will contain
the number of the current track and the playing time.
TIP: Whilst the navigation session menu is active, the six softkeys and
the rocker switch 7 have the same function as they do in the main menu
of the audio source that is currently active in the background. This means
that you can access the most important primary functions of the active
audio source at any time without having to leave the navigation session
menu.

During dynamic navigation, the TravelPilot DX-R 70 analyses digital traffic information messages and uses this information when planning the route. The traffic
messages are received from TMC (Traffic Message Channel) stations. These
are RDS stations which also broadcast their traffic messages in digital form (for
further information, read the section entitled “TMC” in the “Radio mode” chapter).
Before you can use dynamic navigation, you must first select the DYN. option for
the ROUTE menu item.The ROUTE menu item can be found under the ROUTEOPTION menu item in the navi menu. The route option settings are kept until
they are changed again.

NO MAP navigation
NO MAP navigation begins if you remove the navigation CD after having entered the destination and started the navigation session.
TIP: During a NO MAP navigation session you can use the internal CD
drive to play an audio CD.
If a NO MAP navigation session is active, NO MAP appears in the title line and
the distance to the destination as the crow flies is displayed in the symbol area
on the right. Furthermore, the direction to the destination is displayed continuously.
Due to technical reasons, after re-inserting the navigation CD, it can take several minutes before the audio and visual navigation features are correctly resumed.
The system needs this time to precisely determine the current vehicle position.
The “OFF ROAD” status may be active for a longer period during this time. In
very built-up areas with a dense road network, position tracking errors may occur until the system has been able to precisely and correctly orient itself.
Note: For this reason try, if possible, to insert the navigation CD
whilst still on the motorway so that this orientation process is speeded up.
Travel guide
If you are using a navigation CD that includes a travel guide, you can look up
travel information on particular destinations and select destinations for your navigation sessions. The information is usually stored in categories.
The information available can include addresses, telephone numbers, prices
and facilities provided by hotels and restaurants.
Since the stored information depends on the travel guide on your CD, we cannot
provide any detailed description of the contents here. If only one travel guide is
present, the name of the guide, e.g. MERIANscout, appears in the main navigation menu.
1Open the TRAVEL GUIDE item or the name of the travel guide in the main
navigation menu.
✔If more than one travel guide is present on the CD, a selection menu will
first open so that you can choose a travel guide.
2Select a travel guide.

you added convenience and features when listening to FM radio. Alongside the
broadcast radio programme, RDS allows stations to transmit such information
as the programme name (up to eight characters long) and the station’s traffic
announcement status. As soon as a station is detected, its name appears in the
display. Furthermore, the TravelPilot tunes into the station frequency offering
the best reception (alternative frequency).
Before you can benefit from the advantages of RDS, you first have to activate it
in the radio mode’s setup menu.
✔The radio mode’s setup menu appears.
You will find the RDS item in the lower left display line. You can choose between
the VAR, FIX and OFF options. The default setting is VAR.
3Keep pressing the softkey associated with RDS until the required option
appears alongside RDS.
FIX: RDS radio mode is activated. Since some stations not only use RDS
to broadcast their names but also advertising, you have the option of
keeping the station name permanently in the display. Changing display
contents, e.g. advertising, will not be displayed.
VAR: Default setting; RDS radio mode is fully activated. Changing dis-
play contents, e.g. advertising, will also be displayed.
OFF: RDS radio mode is deactivated. Stations can be tuned into using
the frequency details in the display. The “alternative frequency” function
is also deactivated.
Activating / deactivating RDS-REG
A further advantage provided by RDS is the “alternative frequency” function.
The unit constantly tunes into the frequency offering the best reception for a
particular station. However, some stations divide their content at certain times
into regional programmes that are tailored to a certain region. The “alternative
frequency” feature may therefore sometimes interrupt reception of a regional
programme because it has automatically switched frequency. If you are listening to a regional programme and want to prevent the unit from switching to
another frequency, select the ON setting for the REG item in the radio mode
menu. The unit will then only retune if it appears that a “loss of reception” is
about to occur, i.e. if the station can no longer be received on the tuned frequency.

2Keep pressing the softkey that is assigned to REG until the required opti-

Switching PTY on/off
PTY (Programme Type) is also an RDS service. Stations use PTY to inform you
of the type of programme content. This simplifies choosing stations according to
their programme content, e.g. POP or CLASSIC.
If you activate the PTY function in the radio mode menu, the programme type
appears briefly in the display when you tune into a station, for instance, when
you press a station preset button. If the station does not support the PTY function,
nothing will be displayed.
1Press the MENU button :.
✔The setup menu is displayed.
2Keep pressing the softkey associated with PTY until the required ON or
OFF option appears. The default setting is ON.
PTY alarm
Alarm is a special programme type. If the TravelPilot receives an alarm announcement, e.g. a state of emergency alarm, a symbol appears in the display
foreground and the alarm announcement is played at the volume level set for
traffic announcements.
The alarm message can be cancelled by pressing the MENU button : or ESC
button <.
Traffic announcements (TA) are a service provided by the broadcasting stations. Traffic information announcements are broadcast regularly. Stations that
broadcast traffic announcements also transmit a signal indicating that they do. If
this signal is detected by your TravelPilot, a TP symbol (TP = Traffic Programme) will appear in the status line of the main radio mode menu. If the TA function
is activated, a TA symbol will appear instead of TP.
Furthermore, the RDS-EON feature means you can receive traffic announcements from stations that do not broadcast their own traffic announcements. In
this case, the unit switches to another station that broadcasts traffic information
for the duration of the traffic announcement. Once the traffic announcement is
over, you will be switched back to the radio station that you were listening to
before.
The volume is raised by a predefined fixed level whilst the traffic announcement
is being made. You can set a minimum volume for traffic announcements in the
setup menu.
If the TA function is activated for the audio sources (CD, CD changer and navigation), playback will be interrupted when a traffic announcement arrives, and
the announcement will be heard. When the announcement is finished, playback
will resume.
If the TA function is active and you manually tune into a station that does not
support traffic announcements, you will hear a warning beep. If this is the case,
automatic TP seek tuning will be started by the system after the warning beep is
heard.
Activating / deactivating the TA function for radio mode
The TA function is activated / deactivated in the menu of the particular source. A
TA symbol in the status line indicates that the TA function is active and that a TP
station is being received. If the TA function is activated and no TP station is
being received, a TA symbol will appear enclosed in a dashed line border.

Interrupting a traffic announcement
You can cancel the announcement by pressing the MENU : and ESC < buttons or by tuning into another station. If you assign the TA function to the macrobutton4, you can also interrupt a traffic announcement by pressing this but-
ton.
TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
TMC stands for Traffic Message Channel and refers to broadcast digital traffic
information that can be analysed by the TravelPilot for dynamic navigation. The
TMC function is currently not supported by all radio stations, so sometimes it
may not be possible to receive a TMC station in certain regions. When dynamic
navigation is active, the TravelPilot tunes into a TMC station automatically. For
further details, read the section entitled “Dynamic navigation” in the “Navigation”
chapter. If a TMC station is being received, a TMC symbol appears in the status
line. Six TMC stations can be stored in the FMC memory.
Note: Before TMC can be used, a navigation CD for the country which
you are currently in must have been inserted in the unit at least
once.
TIP: You can conveniently store the six TMC stations with the strongest
reception in the region using the TMC Store function. For further informa-
tion, read the section entitled “Storing TMC stations automatically” in this

TIP: You can adjust the sensitivity used during seek tuning. For further
information, read the section entitled “Adjusting seek tuning sensitivity”
in the “Setup” chapter.
Browsing through broadcasting networks (only for RDS stations)
An example of a broadcasting network is Norddeutsche Rundfunk NDR, which
includes the NDR1, NDR2, Radio3, NDR INFO and N-JOY radio stations.
You can directly tune into RDS stations in the reception area. If the unit is able to
receive several stations that are on the same network, you can browse back
and forth within the broadcasting network using the
switch 7.
Note: This feature will only work if the unit has received these stations at least once already. For instance, begin a scan seek tuning
session or activate the Travelstore function. For further information, read the appropriate sections entitled “Scan seek tuning” and
“Storing stations automatically” in this chapter.
