1 Warnings and Safety information
Clarion Mobile Map is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your destination with its
GPS receiver. Clarion Mobile Map does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you.
It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the
vehicle, we recommend that you operate Clarion Mobile Map before you start your journey. Plan the
route before your departure and stop if you need to change something in the route.
Clarion Mobile Map has a Safety Mode: if you turn on Safety Mode, you cannot change anything in
Clarion Mobile Map while the vehicle is moving at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or higher. Unless only
passengers operate Clarion Mobile Map, we strongly encourage you to turn on Safety Mode.
You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you deviate from the route that
Clarion Mobile Map recommended, Clarion Mobile Map changes the instructions accordingly.
Never place any part of the navigation system where it obstructs the driver's view, where it is in the
deployment zone of an airbag or where it might cause injuries in an accident.
For more information, consult the End User License Agreement (page 76).

2.3.3 Lane information and Signposts
When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the
recommended route. If lane information is available in the map data, Clarion Mobile Map displays the
lanes and their directions using small arrows either at the bottom or at the top of the map (the position
of these arrows can be modified in Map Screen settings). Arrows in yellow represent the lanes you
need to take.
Where there is additional information available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are always
displayed at the top of the map. The color and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you
can see above road or by the roadside. They show the available destinations and the number of the
road the lane leads to.
All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no recommended route). When navigating a
route, only that signpost is displayed in vivid colors that points to the lane(s) to be taken; all others are
darkened out.

2.4 Clarion Mobile Map concepts
2.4.1 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:
xWhile following a route calculated by Clarion Mobile Map: when approaching a turn, it will
zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next
junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be flat so
you can see the road in front of you.
xWhile driving without an active route in Clarion Mobile Map: Smart Zoom will zoom in if
you drive slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed.
Enabling Smart Zoom
Tap the map to let the map control buttons appear, and then tap to enable Smart Zoom.
Fine-tuning Smart Zoom
Tap the map to let the map control buttons appear, and then tap and hold to open the Smart
Zoom Settings window. Modify the zoom limits of Smart Zoom if necessary.

2.4.3 Daytime and night color profiles
Clarion Mobile Map uses different color profiles during the day and during the night.
x Daytime colors are similar to paper road maps.
x The night color profiles use dark colors for large objects to keep the average brightness of the
screen low.
Clarion Mobile Map offers different daytime and night color profiles. It can also switch automatically
between the daytime and the night schemes depending on the illumination setting in the Clarion Multi
Media Station.
2.4.4 Color scheme in tunnels
When entering a tunnel, the colors of the map change. All buildings disappear, large objects (such as
surface waters or forests) and empty areas between roads become black.
However, roads and streets keep their original colors from the daytime or night color scheme currently
used.
After leaving the tunnel, the original colors return.
2.4.5 Route calculation and recalculation
Clarion Mobile Map calculates the route based on your preferences:

2.4.9 POI (Points of Interest)
A point of interest (POI) is a location that someone might find useful or interesting. Clarion Mobile
Map is delivered with thousands of POIs and you can also create your own POIs in the application.
POI locations are marked on the map with special icons. POI icons are quite large so you can easily
recognize the symbol. The icons are semi-transparent: they do not cover the streets and intersections
behind them.
POIs are grouped into several levels of categories and subcategories. The icon of a POI that comes
with the map shows the symbol of the POI category. If you save your own POI, you can select an icon
for it independently of the POI category you have put it in.
Saving POIs
To save a POI, place the Cursor () at the desired location, then tap the following buttons: ,

Managing POIs
You can select which POI groups to show and which ones to hide on the map, and from which zoom
levels POI icons are visible. At the same place you can manage your saved POIs. A saved POI can

additional information can be added to it. Tap the following buttons:

2.4.10 Road Safety Cameras
The location of a Road Safety Camera is a special POI. These cannot be searched like other POIs,
and there is a special proximity warning only for cameras.

similar to fixed speed cameras, but as there is no speed limit given, only
the proximity is announced.
Some speed cameras are built into traffic lights. They work like fixed
speed cameras, but they are difficult to spot. The warning for proximity
and speeding is the same as for the fixed speed cameras.

2.4.10.2 Camera directions
A speed camera can measure the speed of one direction of the traffic, both directions, or even several
directions in an intersection, when they are mounted on a rotating base. The same directions apply to
red light cameras. Clarion Mobile Map warns you only if you drive in a measured or possibly
measured direction. The measured direction of the camera appears with the following symbols:
These speed cameras work in pairs, and do not measure your current
speed but your average speed between the two speed cameras. Both
identify your car and record the exact time you pass them. They use the
difference between the two points in time to calculate your average
speed.
Clarion Mobile Map warns you when you approach one of these speed
cameras, but as you pass by, the warning stays on, and your average
speed is measured until you reach another speed camera of this type. If
your average speed exceeds the speed limit between the two speed
cameras, you receive the same special warning sound as with the other
speed camera types.
In the rare case Clarion Mobile Map cannot register the moment you
pass the second speed camera (for example, it is placed at the exit of a
tunnel where GPS position is not yet available) the warning continues.
Just tap the speed camera symbol displayed on the screen to stop the
warning.
Tap again to display the second route event with the possibility to open
the Itinerary.
These cameras check if you obey traffic lights. The warning is similar to
mobile speed cameras: as there is no speed limit given, only the
proximity is announced.

The camera checks speed in the direction into which you are driving.
The camera checks speed in the opposite driving direction.

2.4.11 Speed limit warning
Maps sometimes contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. This information
may not be available for your region (ask your local dealer) or may not be fully correct for all roads on
the map.
You can configure Clarion Mobile Map to warn you if you exceed the current limit. Tap the following

3 Navigating with Clarion Mobile Map
You can set up your route in Clarion Mobile Map in several ways:
x if you need a simple route (a route with only one destination, without any intermediate via
points), you can select the destination and start navigating to it right away
x you can plan a multi-point route (available in Advanced mode only)
x you can also plan a route independently of your current GPS position or even without GPS
reception (available in Advanced mode only)
3.1 Selecting the destination of a route
Clarion Mobile Map offers you several ways of choosing your destination and via points (intermediate
destinations):
x Use the selected location on the map (the Cursor) (page 28).
x Enter a full address or a part of an address, for example a street name without a house number
or the names of two intersecting streets (page 29).
x Enter an address with ZIP code (page 35). This way you do not need to select the name of the
city and the search for

x When entering the city name or the street name, tap the
of letters; Clarion Mobile Map lists the items that contain the specified letters.
x You can speed up finding an intersection:
x Search first for the street with a less common or less usual name; fewer letters are
enough to find it.
x If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You can then find the second
one faster.
x You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If the same word appears in several
names, for example in the name of streets, roads and avenues, you can obtain the result faster
if you enter the first letter of the street type: For example, enter Pi A to obtain Pine Avenue
and skip all Pine Streets and Pickwick Roads.

If you insert a via point in a route that is already a multi-point route, you will automatically be taken to
the Edit Route screen where you can determine the position of the intermediate route point. When
you enter the screen, the new via point is placed as the first via point to be reached. The new point is
the highlighted point in the list.
You have the following options:

The selected point moves up in the list (becomes a via point to be reached earlier).
Tap this button repeatedly, and the point becomes the start point of the route (when
routing from a given location) or the first via point to reach (when routing from the GPS
position).
The selected point moves down in the list (becomes a via point to be reached later).
Tap this button repeatedly, and the point becomes the final destination of the route.
Tap this button to reverse the route. The start point becomes the destination, the
destination becomes the start point, and all via points are to be reached in the opposite
order than before.
Tap this button to optimize the route. The start point and the destination remain at their
position, but the via points are reordered to make the shortest possible route.
Tap this button to remove the selected point from the route. The route remains as it

4 Reference Guide (Advanced mode)
On the following pages you will find the description of the different menu screens of Clarion Mobile
Map in Advanced mode. In Simple mode, these functions work the same way, but only a few of them
are available.
The Navigation menu:
Clarion Mobile Map starts with the Navigation menu. From there you can access the following
screens:

Pins, and History items), Saved Routes, and Track Logs.
Managing the behavior of Clarion Mobile Map, for example the map
layout during navigation, the used languages or the warnings.
4.1 Map screen
Clarion Mobile Map is primarily intended for land navigation. That is why maps in Clarion Mobile Map
look similar to paper road maps. However, Clarion Mobile Map provides much more than regular
paper maps: you can customize the look and the content of the map.
The most important and most often used screen of Clarion Mobile Map is the Map screen.
During navigation, the screen shows route information and trip data (left screenshot), but when you
tap the map, additional buttons and controls appear for a few seconds (right screenshot). Most parts
of the screen behave as buttons.

4.1.1 Icons on the map
There are several status icons on the map. Most of them also function as a button. The information
they provide is as follows:
x GPS position quality
x Vehicle type used for route calculation
x Sound status (muted or enabled)
x Track log recording status
4.1.1.1 GPS position quality and Vehicle type indicator
This area is a multiple status indicator, and also acts as a button that opens the Quick menu.

Devices with a built-in GPS receiver are permanently connected. On
such devices, the icon does not appear in normal circumstances.
Clarion Mobile Map is connected to the GPS receiver, but the signal is
too weak and the receiver cannot determine the GPS position.

4.1.1.3 Next two route events (Turn Preview fields)
There are two fields reserved on the Map screen to display the next two maneuvers (route events that
are listed in the Itinerary). Both the type of the event (turn, traffic circle, exiting freeway, etc.) and its
distance from the current GPS position is displayed.
Most of these icons are very intuitive and you also know them as road signs. The following table lists
some of the frequently shown route events. The same symbols are used in both fields:

4.1.2 Objects on the map
4.1.2.1 Streets and roads
Clarion Mobile Map shows the streets in a way that is similar to how the paper road maps show them.
Their width and colors correspond to their importance: you can easily tell a freeway from a small
street.
Tip!
If you prefer not to see street names during navigation, turn them off (page 66).
4.1.2.2 3D object types
Clarion Mobile Map supports the following 3D object types:

4.1.2.3 Elements of the active route
Clarion Mobile Map shows the route in the following way:
Symbol Name Description
Current GPS position
Cursor (selected map location)
Start point The first point of the route.
Your current position displayed on the map. If roads
are near, it is aligned to the nearest road.
The location selected in the Find menu, or a map
point selected by tapping the map.
Normally if GPS position is available, it is the start
point of the route. If there is no valid GPS position,
Clarion Mobile Map uses the last known GPS position
as the start point.
When you are using a saved route, Clarion Mobile
Map asks you if you want to use your GPS position or
the first point in the saved route as the start point.
You can also modify the start point in the Cursor
menu. If you do so, automatic off-route recalculation
needs to be turned off to keep the selected point as
the start point.
If automatic off-route recalculation is disabled for any
of the above, tapping the
Preview field not only initiates route recalculation from
the current GPS position, but it will re-enable the
automatic off-route recalculation as well.

If the Cursor is at or near the destination, this button replaces the previous
one, and deletes the current destination from the route. The last via point is
promoted as destination, or if there are no via points, the route is deleted.
The Cursor is added to the active route as an intermediate route point, a
point to be reached before the destination. If there is already a via point in
the route, the Edit Route screen opens to let you decide where the new via
point is to appear in the route.
If the Cursor is at or near one of the via points, this button replaces the
previous one, and deletes the selected via point from the route. The route
is recalculated without the deleted point.
Map locations can be marked with Pins. Unlike POIs, a Pin has no name

If the Cursor is at or near the selected start point, this button replaces the
previous one and deletes the start point from the route. The current GPS
position is used again as the start point, and Automatic Off-route

5 Glossary
2D/3D GPS reception
The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to calculate its (your) position and needs at least four signals
to give a three-dimensional position, including elevation. Because the satellites are moving and
because objects can block the signals, your GPS device might not receive four signals. If three
satellites are available, the receiver can calculate the horizontal GPS position but the accuracy is
lower and the GPS device does not give you elevation data: only 2D reception is possible.
Active route
The currently navigated route. You can save and load routes in Clarion Mobile Map, but only one
route can be active at any given time, and it is always active until you delete it, reach your destination
or you quit Clarion Mobile Map. See also: Route.
City Center
The City Center is not the geometric center of the city but an arbitrary point the map creators have
chosen. In cities and villages, it is usually the most important intersection; in larger cities, it is an
important intersection.
GPS accuracy
Several factors have impact on the deviation between your real position and the one given by the
GPS device. For example, signal delay in the ionosphere or reflecting objects near the GPS device
have a different and varying impact on how accurately the GPS device can calculate your position.
Map
Clarion Mobile Map works with digital maps which are not simply the computerized versions of
traditional paper maps. Similarly to the paper road maps, the 2D mode of digital maps show you
streets, roads, and elevation is also shown by colors.
In 3D mode, you can see the altitude differences, for example valleys and mountains, elevated roads,
and in selected cities 3D landmarks and 3D buildings are also displayed.
You can use digital maps interactively: you can zoom in and out (increase or decrease the scale), you
can tilt them up and down, and rotate them left and right. In GPS-supported navigation, digital maps
facilitate route planning.
North-up map orientation
In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This is the orientation in 2D map
view mode and in Overview mode. See also: Track-up map orientation.
74
Overview mode
You can instruct Clarion Mobile Map to automatically switch to Overview mode if the next route event
is in a distance. In Overview mode the map is shown in 2D but scaled down to a predefined zoom
level. When you approach the next route event, the previous 2D or 3D map view returns
automatically.
Route
A series of destinations to be reached one after the other. A simple route contains one start point and
only one destination. Multi-point routes contain one or more via points (intermediate destinations).
The last route point is the final destination and the route is cut into different legs (from one destination
to the next).
Scheme
Clarion Mobile Map comes with different color schemes for the map for daytime or night use.
Schemes are custom graphic settings for the map and they can have different colors for streets,
blocks or surface waters in 2D and 3D modes, and they display shades or shadows in different ways
in 3D mode.
One daytime scheme and one night scheme is always selected. Clarion Mobile Map uses them when
it switches from day to night and back.
Track-up map orientation
In Track-up mode the map is rotated so its top always points in the current driving direction. This is
the default orientation in 3D map view mode. See also: North-up map orientation.
Road Safety Camera
A special POI type for speed cameras and red light cameras. Different data sources are available,
and you can also mark the position of a Road Safety Camera on the map.
You can configure Clarion Mobile Map to warn you when you approach one of these cameras.
Detecting the location of Road Safety Cameras is prohibited in certain countries. It is the sole
responsibility of the driver to check whether this feature can be used during the trip.
