About the MP3/WMA/AAC files
What is MP3/WMA/AAC?
MP3, WMA, and AAC are the audio file formats which have penetrated into PC users and become a standard format. MP3 is an audio compression method and classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards. WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio compression method developed by Microsoft Corporation. AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a newer audio compression method developed for used with video compression standards MPEG-2 and MPEG-4, and has been adopted as the standard audio format of the iPod and iTunes by Apple Inc. These features compress the original audio data to about 10 percent of its initial size with a high sound quality. This means that about 10 audio CDs can be recorded on a CD-R/RW disc to allow a long listening time without having to change CDs.

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 88).

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.

2.4.3 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.
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:
x Route calculation method:

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: ,

2.4.10.1 Camera types
There are different types of Road Safety Cameras.
Icon Type Description
Fixed Some speed cameras stand by the roadside, looking in one direction,
Mobile Some speed cameras are operated from vehicles. They do not always work
28
measuring one or both directions of the traffic. They measure your current speed. For these speed cameras you can specify the controlled traffic direction and the speed limit. Clarion Mobile Map warns you when you approach these speed cameras in the measured direction. If your speed exceeds the speed limit near the speed camera, Clarion Mobile Map plays a special warning sound.
and they are not set to check a preset speed limit. The warning is similar to
fixed speed cameras, but as there is no speed limit given, only the proximity is announced.
Built-in
Section control
Red light
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.
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.
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:
Icon Description
