1 Warnings and Safety information
Clarion Mobile Map is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your destination with its
GPS receiver. Clarion Mobile Map does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you.
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 Clarion Mobile Map before you start your journey. Plan the
route before your departure and stop if you need to change something in the route.
Clarion Mobile Map has a Safety Mode: if you turn on Safety Mode, you cannot change anything in
Clarion Mobile Map while the vehicle is moving at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or higher. Unless only
passengers operate Clarion Mobile Map, we strongly encourage you to turn on Safety Mode.
You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you deviate from the route that
Clarion Mobile Map recommended, Clarion Mobile Map changes the instructions accordingly.
Never place any part of the navigation system where it obstructs the driver's view, where it is in the
deployment zone of an airbag or where it might cause injuries in an accident.
For more information, consult the End User License Agreement (page 76).

countries.
Tasks Instructions

You do not need to tap the screen twice for any action. With buttons and
controls, a single tap is enough.

Map screen: you can set or reset the tilt and zoom values of the
button (3D map).
xTap and hold on list and menu screens: the Navigation

2.4 Clarion Mobile Map concepts
2.4.1 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:
xWhile following a route calculated by Clarion Mobile Map: when approaching a turn, it will
zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next
junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be flat so
you can see the road in front of you.
xWhile driving without an active route in Clarion Mobile Map: Smart Zoom will zoom in if
you drive slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed.

Fine-tuning Smart Zoom

Zoom Settings window. Modify the zoom limits of Smart Zoom if necessary.
