What to do if...

▷ The current transmission position cannot be displayed?
The vehicle is located in an unrecognized region, is in a poor reception area, or the system is currently determining the position.

Reception is usually best when you have an unobstructed view of the sky.

▷ Letters for destination input cannot be selected?

The Control Display changes to a black and white display. This enables a better view of the traffic bulletins.

▷ Spoken instructions are no longer output during route guidance in front of intersections?
The area has not yet been fully recorded, or you have left the recommended route and the system requires a few seconds to calculate a new route suggestion.
