Operating Instructions
Important information for road traffic safety
Operation while driving
As a driver you are solely responsible for your road safety.
Use this equipment only in situations where you keep complete control of your vehicle at all times!
Remember that, at a speed of 50 kph, you travel a distance of almost 14 m within one second.
Route guidance
The route guidance system provides you with driving recommendations only. It is always up to you to take another route.
When leaving the recommended route, the system will automatically calculate a new one leading to the desired destination.
This can either be done immediately or after the system has prompted you twice “Make a U-turn, if possible”. The route
guidance function only provides information for the individual vehicle. The system does not include possible limitations for
trucks or coaches (e.g. with respect to max. permissible height or weight). The TravelPilot provides assistance regarding oneway streets, pedestrian areas and turning regulations. It is your responsibility to pay attention to the current traffic
situation at all times!

Product information
Scope of delivery
The TravelPilot RGS 05 is an active route guidance system.
After having inserted the corresponding navigation CD containing the
area of the current vehicle position and the destination area, you can
use this system in order to be guided to your destination. Discs for
other countries or Merian Scout travel guides are under preparation
or already available.
The travel recommendations for route guidance are output acoustically and visually.
Using a separate loudspeaker the system provides you with precise
information, for example when having to make a turn.
The volume and tone of the voice output can be controlled or switched
off completely.
On the display you can find the same information offered in a visual
form. In addition, the system shows you the name of the currently used
road as well as the current distance to the destination.
If you have missed a turn, the TravelPilot navigator will re-calculate a
new route within a few seconds. Therefore, it is no problem if you
decide to „take to the back roads“ although the navigator first gives you
another route recommendation.
The system „knows“ one-way streets, pedestrian areas, play streets,
turning regulations etc. and takes them into consideration when
calculating the individual vehicle route.
TravelPilot RGS 05
The navigation system comprises a high-performance processing
unit including a CD-ROM disc drive, a remote control, a 5-inch colour
monitor, a magnetic field sensor, two wheel sensors, a shunt for the
rear window defogger, a GPS receiver, a GPS antenna and the
current CD-ROM.
Quick reference

function:
1. Switch on the ignition.
2. Enter your destination via:
City and
Centre or
Street/Junction or
Other local.
3. Start guidance
4. Start to travel following the direction of the arrow.
