INTRODUCTION NAVIGATION

Dear Customer,

Congratulations on buying the TravelPilot. You can be sure you have made the right choice in purchasing this device.

The TravelPilot is a radio navigation system the size of a standard car radio. However, it has a whole lot more to offer!

For instance, it includes the corridor and surrounding-area functions that allow you to listen to audio CDs during an active navigation session.

The TravelPilot is a reliable and easy-to- use navigation system that will guide you precisely to your destination.

These operating instructions will lead you step-by-step through the functions of the TravelPilot and will answer the most frequently asked questions. You will find further information on using these operating instructions in the section entitled “About these instructions”.

If you have any further questions or would like to provide suggestions regarding the TravelPilot, please do not hesitate to call our telephone hotline at any time or contact your dealer. The international telephone hotline numbers are printed at the end of these instructions.

Compatible navigation CD-ROMs

The TravelPilot Amsterdam NAV 35E can only be used with navigation CDROMs that are labelled with an “E”. If there is no CD-ROM inserted in the device, a message informing you of this appears in the display as soon as you try to enter a destination.

Note: The TravelPilot is not designed for use with navigation CDROMs (CD-Rs, CD-RWs) that you have burned yourself. If you insert a CD-ROM that you have burned yourself, the text NAVIGATION IS BEING ACTIVATED appears continuously in the display. Any resulting limitations to navigation performance are not covered by the guarantee.

Care tips for CD-ROMs

If a CD-ROM becomes dirty, never clean it using circular motions but always wipe it from its centre to its outer edge using a soft lint-free cloth. If the CD is very dirty, we recommend you wash the CD using standard washing-up liquid. Again, when washing the CD, never clean it using circular motions but always wipe it from its centre to its outer edge and leave it to dry.

We also recommend you handle both the underside and upper side of the CD with care, since the CD structure is such that the information layer is located directly beneath the printed layer (i.e. the label side).

Some comments regarding questions on reading quality:

A dirty or damaged CD can lead to the CD drive having difficulty reading the CD. The severity of the reading error depends on the amount of dirt present or the severity of the physical damage. Severe scratches cause data-read errors, which lead the CD to “jump” or “get stuck” during playback. All CDs must be handled with care and always stored in a protective case.

About these instructions

The aim of these instructions is to familiarize you with the functions of your TravelPilot and to ensure that you can safely and successfully operate the device. Before starting to use your TravelPilot, please read these instructions carefully and keep them in a safe place in your vehicle.

Note: Make sure you do not keep the equipment pass (enclosed in these instructions) inside your vehicle.

To help you find the information you need as quickly as possible, these instructions use the following symbols to denote individual steps:

1Indicates the steps informing you how to carry out a particular action in order to achieve an intended system response to that action.

Indicates the expected reaction of the device to the user’s actions or input.

Plus Point: Provides information and tips on operating the TravelPilot.

Note: The displayed order and presence of menu items depends in part on the navigation CD-ROM that is inserted in the drive and might therefore differ from the pictures shown in these instructions.

Navigation

The navigation system in the TravelPilot helps you find your way to destinations quickly and safely without first having to spend time studying a roadmap. When navigation (route guidance) is active, you will be guided by the device’s voice output feature. The system will warn you in good time about approaching turningoff points. In addition, the display shows visual driving recommendations and indicates the current distance to your destination and the estimated time of arrival at your destination.

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 system works out the current vehicle position using the electronic speedometer signal, a gyroscope (which detects changes in the vehicle’s direction) and a signal transmitted by GPS satellites (Global Positioning System). The navigation system compares the data with the digitised map and uses this information to calculate your position and the routes used for navigation.

Inserting the navigation CD

1 Press the button 9 to open the release panel.

The control panel opens out towards you and any CD that is already inserted in the drive is ejected.

2If a CD is ejected, take it out and then carefully push the navigation CD with its printed side uppermost into the device’s CD compartment until you feel some resistance. From this point onwards, the drive will draw in the CD automatically.

Note: If you do not take out the ejected CD, the drive will draw it back in again automatically after approx. 10 seconds.

Downloading the navigation software

The system automatically loads the navigation software into memory from the CD. The software remains in memory until the device is disconnected from the operating voltage or until the system automatically shuts down fully 72 hours after the user switches off the device. (Note: the power supply for the device memory is switched off to conserve the vehicle battery). The system also starts downloading from the CD if the navigation software that is loaded in the device does not match the software that is stored on the CD.

Note: The software loading process is indicated on the display and should not be interrupted.

Corridor function

The corridor function is used for navigation without a CD-ROM. Once the system begins calculating the route, it loads the data necessary for navigation into the TravelPilot’s memory. After the loading process has completed, you can eject the CD-ROM from the drive and insert an audio CD instead. When all the segments of the navigation-CD symbol appear filled in, this indicates that the loading process has ended.

Surrounding area function

The surrounding area function allows you to enter destinations within the area stored in memory without you having to insert the CD-ROM. In order for this to work, the system loads parts of the navigation data (depending on the vehicle location) from the CD-ROM into the navigation memory. The navigation system then accesses the data stored in memory when you enter a destination. The amount of data stored in memory depends on the current operating conditions.

NAVI SW

TMC 5O% NAV

Note: Any memory available after the corridor has been loaded will be used to store the data for the surrounding area function. The CD symbol at the bottom right of the display indicates when data are being loaded. Data are loaded even if there is no navigation session currently active.

You will be asked to insert the navigation CD in certain situations when the device needs to load new data from the CD. If you do not insert the navigation CD after being asked to do so during the active navigation session, a compasscard symbol will appear in the display.

Notes: If a navigation session is active within the stored corridor and you insert a CD-ROM containing navigation software that is different to the software already installed on the device, the system will ask you whether you want to load this new software into the device. If you decide to go ahead with this download, the system will cancel the currently active navigation session. If you do not go ahead with the download, a compass-card symbol will appear in the display after your vehicle leaves the corridor.

To switch between the navigation system’s memory banks,

1press the NAV button 1 repeatedly until the memory bank that you want appears in the top line of the display.

Before navigation can begin, you must first insert a TravelPilot type “E” navigation CD into the drive or the necessary data must already be available in the device’s memory. Furthermore, you must specify a destination.

Entering a destination

N2 NAVi

LAST 1O TMC DEST INP.

NAV

You can enter a destination by selecting one from the destination memory or by entering a place name or postcode, a centre, a road name, crossroads or house number, or by selecting a special destination (e.g. a motorway junction, train station, hotel, shopping centre, etc.). You can also enter the country name.

The main navigation menu appears in the display after you activate navigation mode by pressing the NAV button 1.

Destinations

The following destinations are allowed:

the last 10 destinations,

the centre of a place or the centre of a city district,

a road,

a crossing where two or more roads intersect,

a house number or a range of house numbers,

special destinations such as train stations, airports, petrol stations and other public buildings,

destinations from the destination memory.

Entering destinations using the text input line

You can use the text input line to enter data such as town names and road names into the navigation system. The text input line is equipped with an intelligent text-input feature, which only allows you to enter characters that can logically follow on from the ones you have already entered.

Example: If you are entering a street name and there are no streets

 

 

 

 

 

starting with the letter A in your chosen destination town, the sys-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

tem will hide the letter A. Similarly, the letter C will not be displayed

TMC

if you entered B as the first letter and there are no street names in

 

 

 

 

 

the destination town starting with the BC letter combination.

 

 

 

 

 

As soon as the system finds a clear match for the characters you have entered, it will automatically complete your text entry. This means you usually only have to enter a few characters in order to specify a place name or street name.

Example: If, whilst in Germany, you were to enter YO as the first two

 

letters of a place name, the system would automatically complete

 

your entry with RCKGEBIET because no other feasible entry exists in

TMC

the list of place names on the Germany CD.

Selecting characters

The first possible character is displayed as soon as the text input line is displayed. Now proceed as follows:

1

Mark the first character.

 

 

Plus Point: The system magnifies and displays the marked character against

 

 

a dark background to show that it is marked.

 

2

Confirm your selection by pressing the OK button ;.

TMC

3Select the next character and confirm your selection again by pressing the OK button ;.
