1 Warnings and Safety information
The navigation system helps you find your way to your destination with the built-in GPS receiver. NOT will units Media our of All transmit your GPS position and others cannot track you.
If you accept this when first using the application, it collects usage information and GPS logs that may be used for improving the application and the quality and coverage of maps. The data is processed anonymously; no one will be able to track any personal information. If you change your mind later, you can enable or disable the log collection in Settings (page 127).
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 your unit media before you start your journey. Plan the route before your departure and stop if you need to change the route.
You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you deviate from the recommended route, Your unit Media changes the instructions accordingly.
For more information, consult the End User Licence Agreement (page 130).

There are screen buttons and data fields on the screen to help you navigate. During navigation, the screen shows route information.
By default, only one data field is displayed in the bottom right corner. Tap this field to see all route data fields.
Tap any of the data fields to suppress others and display only the selected one. The data fields are different when you are navigating an active route and when you have no specified destination (the orange line is not displayed).
16
Default data fields when cruising without a destination (tap and hold any of the fields to change its value):
Field Description
Shows your current speed given by the GPS receiver.
Shows the speed limit of the current road if the map contains it.
Shows the current time corrected with time zone offset. The accurate time comes from the GPS satellites, and the time zone information comes from the map or it can be set manually in Regional settings.
(The current time is always displayed in the top left corner of menu screens.)
Default data fields when navigating a route (tap and hold any of the fields to change its value):
Field Description
Shows the distance you need to travel on the route before reaching your final destination.
Shows the time needed to reach the final destination of the route based on information available for the remaining segments of the route. Historical traffic data or traffic patterns are also taken into account whenever such information exists.
The calculation cannot take into account traffic jams and other possible delays. Historical traffic data can be taken into account if data is available.
Shows the estimated arrival time at the final destination of the route based on information available for the remaining segments of the route. Historical traffic data or traffic patterns are also taken into account whenever such infromation exists.
The calculation cannot take into account traffic jams and other possible delays. Historical traffic data can be taken into account if data is available.
2.3.2 Position markers
2.3.2.1 Vehimarker and Lock-on-Road
When your GPS position is available, the will unit navi mark your current position with the Vehimarker. By default, this marker is a blue arrow, but you can change this icon in Settings.
The exact location of the Vehimarker depends on the vehicle type used for route calculation and the navigation mode. Both can be set in Route settings (page 119).
If you choose pedestrian and/or off-road navigation: The Vehimarker is at your exact
GPS position. The direction of the icon shows your current heading.
17
In all other cases: The Vehimarker may not show your exact GPS position and
heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to suppress GPS position errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road.
2.3.2.2 Selected map location (Cursor) and selected map object
You can mark a map location in the following ways:
Tap the map when navigating,  Tap the map when you are asked to confirm the destination at the end of a search, or  Tap the map in Find on Map (page 73)
When a map location is selected, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the map. The
Cursor is displayed with a radiating red dot (
) to make it visible at all zoom levels.
The location of the Cursor can be used as the destination of the route, a new alert point, you can search for Places around it, or you can save this location as one of your Favourite destinations.
You can also select some of the objects on the map. If you tap the map at the icon of a Place of Interest or an alert point, the object will be selected (you see a red circling border around the object), and you can get information about this object or use it as a route point.
2.3.3 Objects on the map
2.3.3.1 Streets and roads
Your system Media Navigation shows the streets in a way that is similar to how the paper road maps show them. Their width and colours correspond to their importance: you can easily tell a motorway from a small street.
18
2.3.3.2 Turn preview and Next street
When navigating a route, the top section of the Map screen shows information about the next route event (manoeuvre) and the next street or the next city/town.
There is a field in the top left corner that displays the next manoeuvre. Both the type of the event (turn, roundabout, exiting motorway, etc.) and its distance from the current position are displayed.
A smaller icon shows the type of the second next manoeuvre if it is near the first one. Otherwise, only the next manoeuvre is displayed.
Most of these icons are very intuitive. The following table lists some of the frequently shown route events. The same symbols are used in both fields:
Icon Description
Turn left.
Turn right.
19
Turn back.
Bear right.
Turn sharp left.
Keep left.
Continue straight in the intersection.
Go left on the roundabout, 3rd exit (next manoeuvre).
Enter roundabout (second next manoeuvre).
Enter motorway.
Exit motorway.
Board ferry.
Leave ferry.
Approaching a waypoint.
Approaching the destination.
2.3.3.3 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, Your system Navigation displays the lanes and their directions using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you need to take.
Where additional information is available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are displayed at the top of the map. The colour and style of the signposts are similar to the real
20
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 the signpost that points to the lane(s) to be taken is displayed in vivid colours; all others are darker.
If you want to hide the currently displayed signposts, tap any of them and the normal Map screen returns until new signpost information is received.
21
2.3.3.4 Junction view
If you are approaching a motorway exit or a complex intersection and the needed information exists, the map is replaced with a 3D view of the junction. The lanes you need to take are displayed with arrows. Signposts can also be present if information is available.
If you want to hide the currently displayed junction, tap the picture and the Map screen returns.
2.3.3.5 Motorway exit services
You may need a petrol station or a restaurant during your journey. This feature displays a new button on the map when you are driving on motorways.
Tap this button to open a panel with the details of the next few exits or service stations.
22
Tap any of them to display it on the map and add it as a waypoint to your route if needed. If you want to display other types of Places for the exits, you can change the icons in Visual
Guidance settings (page 125).
2.3.3.6 3D object types
Your software supports the following 3D object types:
Type Description
3D terrain 3D terrain map data shows changes in terrain, elevations or depressions in
the land when you view the map in 2D, and use it to plot the route map in 3D when you navigate. Hills and mountains are shown in the background of the 3D map, and illustrated by colour and shading on the 2D map.
Elevated roads
Complex intersections and vertically isolated roads (such as overpasses or bridges) are displayed in 3D.
3D landmarks
Landmarks are 3D artistic or block representations of prominent or well­known objects.
3D buildings
3D block representation of full city building data containing actual building size and position on the map.
2.3.3.7 Elements of the active route
Your software shows the route in the following way:
Symbol Name Description
23
Current GPS position and Start point
Your current position displayed on the map.
In pedestrian mode it is the exact GPS
position.
If a vehicle is selected for route calculation
and roads are near, the symbol is snapped onto the nearest road.
Normally if GPS position is available, the route starts from the current position. If there is no valid GPS position, Your System Navigation uses the last known position as the start point.
Waypoint (intermediate destination)
An intermediate destination of the route before reaching the final destination.
Destination (end point) The final destination of the route.
Route colour
The route always stands out with its colour on the map, both in daytime and in night colour mode.
Streets an d roads that are
excluded from the navigation
You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain road types (page 119). However, when Your System cannot avoid such roads, the route will include them and it will show them in a colour that is different from the route colour.
24
2.3.4 Manipulating the map
Tap the map anywhere to browse it during navigation. The map stops following the current position (the Vehimarker, a blue arrow by default, is not locked in a fix position on the screen any more) and control buttons appear to help you modify the map view.

3 On-road navigation
When first started, MediaYour Unit Navi calculates routes using the road network of the high quality vector maps provided with the product.
You can set up your route in different ways:
If you need a route for immediate navigation, you can select the destination and start
navigating to it right away (normal navigation).
You can also plan a route independently of your current GPS position or even without
GPS reception (to achieve this, you need to turn off the GPS receiver and set a new starting point in My Route / Edit Route by tapping the flag icon at the current position).
You can plan routes with multiple destinations. Select the first destination. Then select a second destination ad add it to your route to create a multi-point route. You can add as many destinations to your route as you like.
You can also use Your system Navi for off-road navigation. For details, see page 104.
3.1 Selecting the destination of a route
The software Primo offers you several ways of choosing your destination:
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 32).
Enter an address with postal code (page 50). This way you do not need to select the
name of the settlement and the search for street names might be faster as well.
Use a built-in Place of Interest as your destination (page 55).  Select a location on the map with the Find on Map feature (page 73).  Use a previously saved Favourite destination (page 75).  Select a location from the History of previously used destinations (page 79).  Enter the coordinate of the destination.  Use the location where a photo was taken.

If you know at least a part of the address, it is the quickest way to select the destination of the route.
Using the same screen, you can find an address by entering:
the exact address, including house number  the centre of a city/town  an intersection  the midpoint of a street  any of the above, starting the search with the postal code (page 50)

3.1.1.7 Tips on entering addresses quickly
When you are entering the name of a city/town or a street:
Only those letters are offered on the keyboard that appear in possible search
results. All other characters are greyed out.
As you are typing, the most likely result is always displayed in the input field. If
the guess is correct, tap
to select it.
After entering a couple of letters, tap
to list the items that
contain the specified letters.
You can speed up finding an intersection:
Search first for the street with a less common or less usual name; fewer letters
are enough to find it.
If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You can then find the
second one faster.
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.
You can also search in postal codes. As postal codes consist of only a few characters,
this is usually faster than entering the name of the city/town.
