- 12 - How your navigation system works
2.1 How your navigation system works
The days of searching for the correct route through thick folding
maps are over. Now your navigation software
MobileNavigator 6 can guide you to your destination quickly
and reliably – without leafing through maps.
The American military developed the Global Positioning System
(GPS) in the 70s to be used as a guided weapons system.
GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth and,
in doing so, are constantly transmitting their position and their
time. The GPS receiver receives this data and calculates its own
geographical position from the various position and time
information broadcast by the different satellites.
For a sufficient, precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the
data from at least three satellites. If you have the data from 4 or
more satellites the altitude above sea level can also be
ascertained. The positioning is precise up to 3 metres.
If MobileNavigator 6 has determined you rposition, this position
can be used as a starting point for a route calculation.
The map material of your navigation device includes the
geographical coordinates of all the digitally recorded points of
interest, streets and locations. The navigation device can
therefore calculate a path from a starting point to a destination.
The calculation of the current position and its representation on
the map takes place once every second. So you can see where
you are on the map.

Before You Start - 13 -
2.2 Important safety information
It is in your own interest to read the following safety information
and warnings carefully before you start up your navigation
system.
2.2.1 Navigation safety information
Use the navigation system at your own risk.
Attention: Do not operate the navigation system whilst you are
driving – this could cause an accident!
Attention: Do not look at the display unless it is absolutely safe
to do so!
Attention: The rules of the road and traffic signs must be
obeyed prior to following the instructions of the navigation
system.
Attention: Do not follow the instructions of the navigation
system unless the circumstances and the street traffic regulations
allow you to do so! The navigation system will guide you to your
destination even if you have to go off course from your calculated
route.
Note: If you have not understood the speech instructions or are
unsure what you should do at the next crossroads, you can use
the map or arrow view to orientate quickly.
2.2.2 Safety information for a switch-on in the vehicle
Attention: Do not fix the support for the navigation device
within the functioning area of the airbag.
Attention: When installing the cradle, ensure that it does not
represent a risk in the event of an accident.

3.3.3 TMC (Traffic information)
If your device has an integrated TMC-receiver, or if you have
connected an external TMC receiver, the navigation system will
have the latest traffic information available. If required, it can
dynamically change your route, e.g. avoid a traffic jam.
The symbol TMC can be found in the centre of the top bar on the
screen. The various symbols have the following meaning:
Symbol Explanation of symbols
No Symbol There is no TMC receiver connected,
or the connected or installed TMC
receiver is not working.
Tuning
The TMC-receiver is ready but cannot
receive TMC signals. This is the case,
for example, when you are in an area
where TMC is not available.
TMC on Standby Traffic messages can be received.
For details of the TMC-functions please refer to chapter "TMC
(Traffic information)" on page 72.
3.3.4 Direction
The Direction icon in the top, right corner of the screen indicates
in which direction you are currently moving. One of the following
compass points can be displayed:
N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW
3.4 Software keyboard
If text entries are required a software keyboard appears on the
screen.
You can use your finger to make all the entries on the software
keyboard. You can enter only uppercase letters.
When entering place or street names you do not have to enter
any special characters or umlauts. MobileNavigator 6 will add
these characters automatically. If, for example, you are
searching for “Würzburg”, then simply type in “WURZBURG”.
