Navigation modeNavigation modeWhat is navigation?The term “navigation” (lat. navigare = totravel by sea) is generally understood tomean the location of a vehicle, the deter-mination of the direction and distancefrom the desired destination and therequired route. As navigation aids, stars,prominent landmarks, compass and sat-ellites are used.With Traffic Pro, location is determinedwith the GPS receiver (GPS = GlobalPositioning System). The direction anddistance from the destination are deter-mined using a digital road map, a navi-gation computer and sensors. A speed-ometer signal and a reverse signal areadditionally used to calculate the route. For safety reasons, navigation is pre-dominantly in spoken form supportedby a direction indicator on the display.

Navigation CDsTwo navigation CDs are supplied withthe navigation unit.These CDs contain a digitised road map.One CD for Northern/Eastern Europe(CD no. 1) and one CD for Southern/Western Europe (CD no. 2) are supplied. The complete trunk road network in thedigitised area of Northern and SouthernEurope are available on the CDs. All digitised roads of the northern/east-ern countries are also included on theNorthern/Eastern Europe CD. All digi-tised roads of the southern/westerncountries are also included on the South-ern/Western Europe CD.In these detailed areas of the Northern/Eastern or Southern/Western Europe CDroad map, motorways, regional roads andunclassified roads as well as countryroads are stored. Larger cities and com-munities are comprehensively covered.For smaller towns and communities, theregional and unclassified roads or accessroads and the town centres are included.

Safety instructions

• Road traffic regulations always takepriority. The navigation system isonly an aid. Errors may occur in indi-vidual data items/entries. At all times,the driver must decide whether or notto heed the information provided. We do not accept liability for errone-ous data provided by the navigationsystem.

• Observation of traffic signs and localtraffic regulations must always takepriority.

• Traffic guidance is restricted to pas-senger vehicles only. Special drivingrecommendations and regulations forother vehicles (e.g. commercial vehi-cles) are not included.

• Destinations may only be enteredwhen the vehicle is stationary.

Navigation mode

One-way streets, pedestrian zones, turnbans and other traffic regulations aretaken into account as far as possible. There may be discrepancies between thedata on the navigation CD and the actuallocal situation, due to permanent changesto road systems and their traffic regula-tions.

Navigation with two European CDs For example, if you wish to navigatefrom a town on the Southern/WesternEurope CD (D) to a town on the North-ern/Eastern Europe CD (B), enter yourdestination address. After entering thetown, you will be prompted to insertnavigation CD No. 1 by the display ) "* After inserting the relevantCD, enter the road and, if required, thehouse number or the town centre. The required map data is loaded andstored internally after route calculationhas started.

Note:For Norway, Sweden, Finland and Den-mark, non-verified data has been usedto achieve a high depth of digitisation;i.e. with this data, the navigation systemcannot refer to information such asmotorway, trunk road, 30 zone, one-way street or other traffic regulations,as this is not recorded. All roads can be used, but optimumroute guidance cannot be guaranteed.

A Area of Northern/Eastern Europe CD with all digitised roads.

B For example, a town or an address in Germany (on the Northern/Eastern Europe CD).

C Area of Southern/Western Europe CD with all digitised roads.

D For example, a town or an address in France (on the Southern/Western Europe CD).

Dynamic route guidance with TMC

What is dynamic route guidance?Dynamic route guidance is used to cal-culate the route, taking current trafficannouncements into account.The traffic announcements are transmit-ted by a TMC radio station in addition tothe radio programme and are receivedand analysed by the navigation system.The reception of traffic announcementsis free of charge.

Dynamic route guidanceYou can activate dynamic route guid-ance by selecting *4% in theroute options.If dynamic route guidance has been acti-vated, a continuous check is made forthe presence of relevant announcementsfor the selected route. The route is thencalculated using the “fast route” option,while taking into account current trafficannouncements. If it is determined dur-ing these continuous checks that a trafficannouncement is of relevance for theroute guidance, the unit will automati-cally re-calculate a new route to the des-tination. (6 is shown on the display. Thereis also the voice announcement “Theroute is being recalculated due to cur-rent traffic announcements”.

Note:Dynamic route guidance is not possiblein all countries.When Dynamic Route Guidance isactive, the navigation system mayrequest the navigation CD for possibleroute calculation (if the navigation CDis not inserted).

Note:As the traffic announcements are trans-mitted by radio stations, we cannotassume responsibility for the complete-ness or accuracy of the announcements.

Voice modeVoice modeWhat is voice mode?In several instances, voice mode allowsyou to control your Traffic Pro simply bypressing a button and using your voice.This increases road safety many timesover.

SymbolsThis section of the operation guide con-tains a range of previously unknownsymbols which are outlined briefly here.

In the descriptions of the possible com-mands in voice mode, a cross-reference(page XX) to the page in the operationguide on which the corresponding func-tion is describe has been included, wherepossible.

Some of the voice commands activate adialogue between the user and the voicecontrol system. The operation guidecontains examples of such dialogues.

The following symbols are used in theexample dialogues:• ...*

You can use your voice control systemto store voice entries for stations,address book entries and/or navigationdestinations. These voice entries are acomponent of the various commandsand are represented in the operationguide by ...*, e.g. “[Listen to] [station]...*”.

• ... (1-X)If a set of brackets containing a numberrange appears after the three points,these three points indicate a numberwithin this range, e.g. “(1 - 9)”.

• [...]A word in square brackets in an exam-ple dialogue is optional. This word isnot absolutely necessary in order forthe command to be understood.

• Symbol In an example dialogue between thevoice control system and user, thissymbol indicates a user voice com-mand.

• Symbol In an example dialogue between thevoice control system and the user, thissymbol indicates a system announce-ment text.

• Signal tone symbol In an example dialogue between thevoice control system and the user, thissymbol indicates the signal tone whichindicates that the voice control systemis ready for commands to be entered.

Voice mode

General information about the voice control systemThe primary principle of voice mode isthat you can read out all the commandsyou can see in the display.

In order to optimise the ability of thevoice control system to understand thecommands, please note:• Speak continuously and at normal vol-

ume. Avoid long pauses and excessiveemphasis.

• Observe the instructions about theposition of the microphone in theinstallation guide.

• Make sure that you speak as directlyas possible into the microphone.

• Reduce interference by closing win-dows, doors and the sliding roof.

• Avoid ambient noise in the vehiclewhen entering voice commands (e.g.conversations between other passen-gers going on at the same time).

• Ambient noise increases the faster thevehicle is travelling. You shouldtherefore speak more loudly at higherspeeds.

• Do not enter voice commands whilstan announcement is being made.

Activating the voice control systemThe voice control system becomes avail-able shortly after the Traffic Pro isswitched on.

In order that conversations going oninside the vehicle do not trigger the unitaccidentally, the voice control systemmust first be activated before it can beused.

Press the rotary control/push button.

The Traffic Pro displays a border aroundthe current display and prompts you tomake an entry by emitting a signaltone . Voice dialogue starts.

Notes:Depending on the setting in “Automaticdialogue” on page 96, a voice dialoguewill be started automatically when

, , and arepressed.

Voice mode

Read out the required command.The Traffic Pro carries out the requiredcommand.If for example you call up a menu withthe command, voice mode remainsactive and you can enter another com-mand immediately.

Ending voice dialogue prematurelyA voice dialogue can be ended at anytime.

Read out one of the followingcommands: Cancel or End.

or Press the rotary control/push button

.

A voice dialogue can also be continuedby means of an operator input on theunit.However, to continue operation in voicemode, the rotary control/push button

must then be pressed again.

Voice entriesDepending on the setting in “Voiceentries” on page 107 for radio mode andin “Voice entries” on page 91 for theaddress book, when storing a station oraddress book entry, at the end of theprocess voice mode will ask you if youwish to enter a voice command.

This teaches voice mode how you usuallypronounce the name. This enables you tosubsequently call up a radio station, forexample, with the voice command Playstation ...* (where ...* stands for theassigned name, e.g. SWR). The same applies to address book entries:If you have assigned a voice entry to anaddress, you can start route guidance to...* with the voice command Navigate todestination ...* (where ...* stands for theassigned name, e.g. Franz Huber).

Notes:You can activate or deactivate thesounding of the signal tone as describedin “Automatic dialogue” on page 96.

Voice mode

SettingsYou can change the settings for voicemode in “Voice mode” on page 94. Thefactory settings are configured to makevoice mode as easy as possible to oper-ate for the most inexperienced users.Experienced users often want to usevoice mode to speed up the operation ofthe unit by assigning voice entries toother commands or reducing the amountof audible feedback. The followingsettings can be made: • In “Voice output” on page 97. Here

you can specify the amount of audiblefeedback.

• Voice entry signalYou can switch off the signal tonebefore each voice entry.

• Confirm voice entryYou can specify whether the com-mand should be confirmed after eachvoice entry.

• Detailed voice outputIn some places, voice mode respondswith a slightly longer voice output.You can switch off this voice output.

• Extended PTTIf you have activated “Extended PTT”(Push-To-Talk), voice recognitionwill also be activated every time oneof the buttons on the unit is pressed(e.g. ).

• Automatic dialoguesHere you can specify whether a(voice) dialogue should be startedwhen specific events occur.

Examples for a voice dialogueA number of examples of voice dialoguesappear below. To familiarise yourselfwith voice mode, we recommend that yourun through these examples once your-self.

You can use voice mode like a remotecontrol and operate the unit using itsmenu structure: If for example you saythe command Navigation, the naviga-tion screen will appear, as if you hadpressed the navigation button. Voicemode is subsequently reactivated andyou can say new commands. For exam-ple, you can now say Enter destination. Please note that some areas (e.g. soundsettings) do not support voice mode. Ifyou navigate to the sound settings usingvoice mode, you will not be able tocontinue to operate the unit in voicemode.
