Various information symbols are located at the top of many windows.
The GPS symbol can indicate the following GPS reception states: No GPS (No symbol): The built-in GPS receiver is not operational. Contact customer service if the problem persists. No Signal: Data is being received from less than three satellites. Position cannot be calculated. GPS Ready: Data is being received from at least three satellites. Position can be calculated.

TMC (Traffic Information)
The NAVIGON 22xx has an integrated TMC receiver which provides the navigation system with traffic information updates. If necessary it can change your route dynamically, for example in order to avoid a traffic jam. Note: This function is only available if TMC traffic messages are being transmitted in the country in which you are travelling. This is not the case in all countries. The TMC symbol can display the following TMC reception status: Tuning: The TMC receiver is operational but cannot find a station that is transmitting TMC signals. There are no active traffic messages. Tuning: The TMC receiver is operational but cannot find a station that is transmitting TMC signals. Traffic messages are active however.

In the NAVIGATION window tap on Options > Settings > Map Display > Categories Shown in order to select the categories you want to appear on the map.

POI nearby

POIs nearby are POIs located within a certain radius of your current location. This means you can always find the nearest petrol station for 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.

- 32 -

The options list opens. 2. Tap on the Route Planning option. The ROUTE PLANNING window opens.
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. If you want to enter a different starting point: 2. Tap on the corresponding button. 3. Enter the starting point. (Refer to the corresponding section of the chapter "Specifying a destination" on page 23 ff.) 4. Tap on Set Starting Point. The selected starting point will now be displayed next to the 0 button (Starting Point).
Changing the starting point
Tap on the starting point (button 0).
The STARTING POINT menu opens. You can now enter a different starting point. Proceed as described above.

Entering route points

The route points of a route are the destinations that you want to navigate to. The flow number for each route point is indicated on a button in front of it. 1. Tap on the Add Route Point box.

The route is marked in orange. Your current position is indicated (). If you display a planned or loaded route and the specified starting point is not your current location, then it is possible that your current position will not be shown on the preview.
The destination is marked with a little flag. If you display a planned or loaded route, the starting point and each route point will be marked with a little flag.
In a small info box you can see the complete route and the estimated time of arrival.
Tap on the arrival time if you want to see the estimated driving time instead. Tap once again on the info box if you want to see the estimated time of arrival.
The display for this information can be configured via Options > Settings > Navigation. If you display a multi-leg route, the route and the estimated driving time for each leg will be displayed. The information for the various legs cannot be configured.
Tap on Route Profile in order to view and, if required, change the settings which form the basis for the route planning. Tap on Start Navigation to start the trip.

INFORMATION

A real Plus for earlier models an upgrade brings the NAVIGON 12 and 13 series right up to date
Owners of NAVIGON entry-level models can now upgrade their navigation devices to the NAVIGON 20 Plus. Alongside new features such as the Active Lane Assistant or the One-Click Menu the upgrade also includes up-to-date and expanded map material.
Hamburg, 25 January 2011 Users can now upgrade their entry-level models and turn their NAVIGON 12 and 13 series1 devices into the NAVIGON 20 Plus. The new features bring with them the very latest in navigation, particularly when it comes to safety and comfort. With this upgrade, our existing customers are swapping their Easy version for the enhanced NAVIGON 20 Plus, says Jrn Watzke, Executive vice-president of Product Line Management at NAVIGON. This means that instead of the basic features they can use a whole range of expanded features of a device from the Plus range. Among these
Top features after the upgrade: Text-to-Speech Active Lane Assistant One-Click Menu Pedestrian navigation NAVIGON MyBest POI NAVIGON MyRoutes NAVIGON Sightseeing Teaser NAVIGON Sightseeing Tours Teaser NAVIGON Last Mile POI Click Clever Parking Map material Q4/2010 with 44 European countries
features are the Active Lane Assistant, the One-Click Menu, NAVIGON MyBest POI and pedestrian navigation. The included map update is doubly valuable: in addition to the latest data it will be expanded to include 44 countries. Better orientation with the Active Lane Assistant The Active Lane Assistant provides even better orientation in hectic traffic. A travelling animation shows drivers which lane they need to be in for the next manoeuvre. With NAVIGON MyBest POI users can set three preferred special destination categories. These POIs and the menu bar can be called up by clicking anywhere on the display thanks to the One-Click Menu. Since unnecessary information is automatically hidden, a larger section of the map can be displayed. With pedestrian navigation, users will also be able to find their way
