deviate from the calculated route.  
Caution! Check that the cradle is secured and adjusted properly before  
each journey.  
Note: If you have not understood the spoken instructions or are unsure  
about what to do next, you can refer briefly to the map or schematic

2.5  
Navigating with GPS  
GPS is based on a total of at least 24 satellites orbiting the Earth and  
continuously transmitting signals of their position and time. The GPS  
receiver receives this data and calculates its own geographical position  
on the basis of the information transmitted by the various satellites.  
Data from at least three satellites is required for positioning with an  
acceptable degree of accuracy. With data from four or more satellites it  
is possible in addition to determine the position's altitude above sea  
level. Positioning is accurate to within three metres.  
Once the navigation device has determined your position, this position  
can be used as a starting point for calculating a route.  
The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical  
coordinates of all digitally recorded points of interest, streets and  
places. This enables the device to calculate a route between a starting  
point and a destination.  
Calculation of the current position and its representation on the map  
takes place once every second. In other words, your current position is  
always shown on the map.

20 minutes, it is advisable to leave the navigation device switched on  
for at least another 15 minutes in order to ensure reliable operation of  
the receiver.  
Each time you switch on the navigation device after this, GPS reception  
will start within a short time.  
If the navigation device has not been switched on for more than a week,  
it can take up to 10 minutes to re-initialise the receiver.  
In the top right hand corner of the display, you will see the GPS symbol.  
As soon as data from at least three satellites is received, the icon will  
change to  
(GPS Ready).  
Note: Initialisation takes the least time if you do not start driving until  
the initialisation has finished.

useful addresses that are catalogued according to particular criteria.

example, no matter where you are.  
Note: GPS reception must be good enough for determining your  
position. Check the  
(GPS Ready) symbol to see whether GPS  
reception is good enough.  
For more details refer to chapter "Initialising the GPS receiver" on  
page 22.

Entering the starting point  
The starting point of a route is the point at which you want to begin your  
trip. This is not necessarily the current location. If you are planning a  
route for your holidays at home, you could, for example, enter your  
hotel as the starting point.  
The starting point is only important if you want to see a planned route  
on the map but currently have no GPS reception, or if you are not  
currently at the planned starting point. This is why your selected starting  
point has the flow number "0".  
As soon as you start navigation, your current location will be used as  
the starting point for the route calculation.  
The first leg of the route is therefore the journey to the route point with  
flow number "1".  
1. Tap on the Specify Starting Point box.  
The STARTING POINT menu opens.  
If you want to enter your current location as the starting point:  
2. Tap on the Current Position menu item.

Red: The section is blocked by the obstruction. This can be the case for  
example with very long traffic jams or road blocks.  
Yellow: The section is not blocked by the obstruction but there is a  
threat of considerable delays. This can be the case for example with  
traffic jams or when one of several lanes is blocked off.  
No colour: The obstruction is not classified as serious. This can be the  
case for example when slow-moving traffic is reported on a very short  
section, when SOS telephones are not working or when parking areas  
are blocked off.
