destination station from a list
Tap on Calculate to confirm your selection and to start the
route calculation. Tap on Navigation to start routing to the
starting station.
Once you arrive at the starting station, the bus & train connection is automatically displayed
on the navigation screen.
Note: The automatic switchover depends on the GPS signal. As it is often not possible for
the GPS signal to be received in buildings and in underground stations, the device may not
switch over automatically. In this case, you can switch over manually. To do this, select
Active Route > Bus & train connection and tap on Get on.
On the navigation screen, you can while travelling on the public means of transport move the
list which is displayed up or down with your finger. If you tap on an entry in the list, the
station is displayed on the map. The Position button restores the map to your current
position. By tapping on Bus & train connection you can view the entire connection. Once
you arrive at the destination station, the navigation automatically switches back to routing to
your final destination point.
3.5.6 Drag route
After calculating a route via the destination entry screen,
you have the option of modifying the calculated route
manually.
After calculating the route, tap on the "Modify route" button
and then on the "Drag route" button .
If you now tap on your route, you will be given a marking
which you can drag to any point you want on the map. The
new route is then shown to you. Furthermore, the original
point
is displayed to you along with two buttons to
continue using the dragged route.
Delete point – The marking set previously is
cancelled.
Set another point – The marking just set is adopted
and the new route is calculated.
Note: If the point is set away from a road, the nearest point linking to a segment of road is
searched for and the route is calculated using this point.
Note: A set point can be selected, moved or deleted again at any time.

3.6 Trip computer
The Trip computer provides you with lots of data
and figures while you are on the move.
When you tap on Trip computer, six preset figures
are shown to you.
However, lots of other figures can also be displayed.
To do this, tap on one of the boxes displayed. You can then
select from a list of all the available data which figure you
would like to have displayed in this box.
The destination is displayed in the box at the bottom.
Note: The trip computer can only be reset via the Reset
button.
This means that figures in relation to day trips or trips over
several days can be collected. Even switching off the device
does not reset the trip computer.
The trip computer is reset for the duration of a track recording so that only the values for the
track are displayed. Once the track is ended, the values for the track are added to the trip
computer values which were displayed previously.

compile your own tours on the device. You can use all sorts of destinations to do
this.

made. To do this, tap after calculation on Demo.
For routes with several stations, you can add destinations to
