liquids such as vases or drinks should be placed on, above or near the device.
Only use a soft, dry and fluff-free cloth or brush. Do not use any detergents, alcohol,
benzene, furniture cleaner or any similar products.
GPS – Global Positioning System
GPS is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for the
performance of GPS. Any modification to the GPS system can affect the accuracy of all
GPS equipment.
GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When you are
inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not available.
A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to determine the current GPS position.
Signal reception can be affected by conditions such as bad weather or dense overhead
obstacles (e.g. trees and tall buildings).
Other wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception of satellite signals
and cause the reception to be unstable.

32
ADVANCED SYSTEM SETTINGS
1. Selecting "Settings"
Select Settings from the main menu.
2. Selecting "Advanced"
These dialog boxes allow you to configure
many advanced settings and enable some
special features.
Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom offers some advanced features
compared to the automatic zoom.
While navigating along a route: When
approaching a road junction, Smart Zoom
enlarges the view and increases the
virtual height so you can easily see the
manoeuvre you are approaching.
When driving with any preset destination
Smart Zoom will enlarge the view at low
speed and reduce it at a higher speed.
33
Settings
You can set the Smart Zoom level when
approaching a road junction (lower zoom
limit) and the maximum level of reduction
(upper zoom limit) if the next road junction is
still far away.
Enabling Overview Mode:
Here you can set how the overview mode should
be activated if the next road junction is still far
away.
Restore Lock-to Position and Restore
Smart Zoom: Enable this function if you
want MyGuide to return to the current GPS
position and to restore Smart Zoom after
you have moved the map while navigating.
Delay in Seconds: Here you can set the
time delay for the functions «Restore Lock-to
Position" and "Restore Smart Zoom".
You are recommended to use a short delay.
34
Backlight Settings
Under Backlight you can determine how the
display backlight illumination should behave
during operation.
Backlight Always On
Here you can choose to have the backlight
always turned on.
"Set custom backlight value for daylight"
and "Set custom backlight value at night"
These functions allow you to set the display
backlight on a scale of relative values.
Smart Powersave
This feature increases the battery life. The
power-saving mode will enable the display
backlight only when pressing or tapping a button
or when the program displays a message. After
a few seconds the backlight intensity will dim
until it completely turns off after another few
seconds.
35
MAPS
1. 2D View
2D means two-dimensional (length x width). This
is the classic map view of an unfolded paper
map.
2D and 3D map display
2. Changing Mode
It is very easy to toggle between 2D and 3D map
view. There are two options:
Use the buttons from the Settings menu to
toggle between the two modes.
Use the semi-transparent icons for
increasing the virtual height to infinite
(equivalent to 2D view) or lower (3D view).
3. 3D View
3D means three-dimensional (length x width x
height). This is a perspective 3D view through the
windshield offering the possibility to looks very far
ahead.
36
Zoom Levels
Your MyGuide navigation device uses high-
quality vectorised maps. This allows you to view
the map at different zoom levels with optimised
contents. The detail density for the map and the
cockpit display can be set independently via
Settings => View Settings => Map Detail. Street
names and other text objects will always be
displayed with the same font size and never
flipped vertically, and you will only see as many
streets and objects as necessary for your
orientation on the map. Just test the different
zoom levels to see how the map changes in
both 2D and 3D views.
Daylight colour profile and Night colour
profile
The different colour settings allow you to
customise your navigation system to the
different environmental situations. Daylight
colours are similar to those used for printed
road maps while night colours use darker
colours in order to keep the overall screen
brightness dimmed. The system uses selected
colours for you to easily recognise all relevant
information. You can quickly toggle between the
daylight and night colour profiles via the
Settings menu.
Good to Know
The program offers different daylight and night
colours. Make the desired choice via Settings
=> View Settings.
37
Street names
Streets are given names or numbers for
identification. Of course you may display them
on the map. The program can display street
labels in two ways:
The traditional mode is equivalent to a
road map, the name appears parallel
along the street.
The alternate mode is a kind of virtual way
sign to be pinned onto the street.
You do not have to choose between the two
modes. The program will display the most
suitable mode depending on the virtual height
and zoom level. Zoom in to view a few streets
only and start increasing the virtual height to
observe how the program toggles between the
two modes.
Good to Know
If you don't want the street names to disturb
you while navigating, you can disable them via
Settings => View Settings.
Artificial Landmarks
To improve your orientation, the map also
includes objects to help you identify your
position on the map. These are water, large
buildings, forests, etc. The below screen shows
a river (blue) and a forest (green).
38
Cursor - selected map point
When tapping any point on the map or when
selecting a specific POI under Find, this point
will become selected on the map. It will be
marked by a small red dot and continuously
expanding red circles will make it well visible.
You may use this point as starting point,
waypoint or destination of your route.
Marked map point - Pin
You can place a pin at the cursor position. All
pins appear on the map. They will be visible at
any zoom level and until you delete them
individually or remove all pins at your position
via Advanced Settings.
Visible POIs
POIs (Point Of Interest) are represented by
icons on the map. The preset POIs have
subcategory icons similar to the real POI. Any
user-defined POIs allow you to select a POI
icon. These icons are large enough to be
identified but also semi-transparent in order to
avoid covering any roads or road junctions.
39
For reduced map views no icons are displayed.
Once you zoom in, at the POI position small dots
will appear. When zooming in further, the icons will
appear.
If two points are located too close to each other so
that the icons overlap, a Multi-POI icon will be
shown instead of several individual icons. Enlarge
the view in order to display the icons separately.
(If both POIs have the same icon, this icon will
appear instead of the Multi-POI icon.)
Active Route Elements
Your programme uses a routing system made
up of many waypoints. It consists of a starting
point, a destination, the line of the current
route segment as well as optional waypoints
and inactive partial routes. All these appear
on the map. The starting point, the waypoints
and the destination point are marked by flags.
Animated arrows will indicate any enroute
events apart from the above-mentioned
points. These arrows show the direction in
which the journey will continue.
An active route segment is the part of the
route where you are currently located. If no
additional waypoints have been defined, the
active route segment is equal to the entire
route. If waypoints have been defined, the
active route segment is the segment from
your present position to the next waypoint.
During the day, the active route segment will
appear in bright green, at night in red.

EXPLANATION OF MAP DISPLAY CONTENTS
AND FEATURES
Route / Road junction Preview (1)
While in Map view, this field also functions as a button. Here it shows a button labelled "Route",
while an active route exists. Tap the button to open the Route menu (for detailed explanation,
see page 63). While in Cockpit display, this field is a graphical illustration of the next
manoeuvre. When approaching a road junction, an arrow will show whether a gentle, medium or
sharp turn has to be made. When a roundabout is displayed, the number of exits are also
shown.
Zoom buttons (2+3)
These semi-transparent buttons will only appear while the Zoom function is enabled from the
Settings menu (see page 59). When reducing/enlarging the map scale will change accordingly.
Reducing shows a larger map portion while enlarging shows a smaller map portion. The
automatic smart Zoom function will take care of zooming in and out while you are navigating
(zooms out when the next road junction is still at a certain distance, zooms in when
approaching a traffic junction in order to allow a better detailed view of the manoeuvre). If you
set the zoom manually, automatic map scaling will not take place any more (although
automatic virtual height adjustment and rotation will still occur). However, you may set the
function to zoom in or out automatically a few seconds after you have manually changed the
zoom level. To do so, go to "Advanced Settings => Smart Zoom".
Because of their importance, the Cursor menu, Route Information display and the Find,
Settings, Route and Main menus are explained in separate chapters.
44
Adjusting the Virtual Height (4+5)
These transparent buttons only appear while the Zoom function is enabled in the Settings menu
(see page 59). As already explained, this function changes the vertical map viewing angle in 3D
mode. You may change the angle through a wide range, starting from a fully vertical view
(equivalent to 2D) to a low-height view giving a wide view ahead. The automatic smart Zoom
function will take care of setting the height while you are navigating (lower height when the next
road junction is still at a certain distance, higher when approaching a traffic junction in order to
allow a better detailed view of the manoeuvre). If you set the virtual height manually, automatic
height adjustment will not take place any more (although automatic zoom and rotation will still
occur). However, you may set the function to zoom in or out automatically a few seconds after
you have manually changed the zoom level. To do so, go to "Advanced Settings => Smart
Zoom".
Map alignment and Overview (7)
The map can be displayed in three different modes:
The common map orientation for navigating is the driving direction, i.e. the map
automatically orientates to the direction you are driving. In this mode, an arrow (compass)
will indicate North.
Tap this icon to switch the map view to North orientation. Now the map is aligned to North.
The icon changes accordingly to indicate the new mode.
Tap the icon again the switch to Overview (aircraft icon). This mode is equivalent to North
orientation with one exception: the zoom level is preset in this mode in order to give you a
better tracking of your current position on the map. The arrow representing your current
location is fixed in the centre of the screen. While moving the map in Overview mode the
Freeze button appears. When you press it, the map will move to indicate your current
location in the centre of the map.
You may customize the program so that it automatically toggles to Overview mode during
navigation when the next road junction is far away. To do so, go to Advanced Settings =>
Smart Zoom => Enable Overview Mode.
45
GPS tracking quality (8)
Analogue to the icon on the GPS information display (see page 24) the map display also gives
information on the GPS signal. They can show three identical values:
Red satellite antenna: There is GPS signal reception, but the signal is too weak or the
number of satellites are too few for position tracking. GPS navigation is not possible.
Black antenna with one wave: GPS tracking OK and navigation possible. When only one
wave is displayed, only 2D tracking is possible (no GPS height indication) and positioning
errors may be significant. However, the system allows navigation.
Black antenna with two waves: Optimum GPS tracking in 3D. The system allows full
navigation.
Battery status (9)
The navigation device also displays the PNA battery status. You can estimate the remaining
battery from the length of the displayed line. Below there are some examples:
Flashing in the battery indicates that the battery is being recharged.
The battery is fully charged.
The battery is not fully charged but there is enough energy remaining.
Whenever the battery interior lights red, the battery must be recharged immediately.
46
Mute on/off (10)
Press this button to mute the sound quickly. This does not change the volume level nor the
enabled/disabled status of voice instructions or button sound, only the sound output will be
switched off. While the Mute function is enabled, the loudspeaker icon is crossed out.
Tap the icon again to reactivate the sound (Mute off).
Note: You may also disable the sound in Settings => Sound => Master. The button Master
on this menu works together with the above button. This screen also contains a Master
slider. You can use it to reduce the overall volume output. Volume setting is different from
Mute, therefore no Mute icon will be shown here.
Route track logging/playback (11)
During route track logging a red recording icon appears on the map displays. This icon also
works like a button to access the Quick => Manage Track Logs, where you can stop the track
logging or play it back on the map.
During playback, a green icon will blink. Tap this icon at any time to stop the simulation.
Follow
Follow Button – Fixing the GPS Position and Driving Direction (12)
This semi-transparent icon will appear while GPS tracking is available and the map has been
moved or rotated manually. It also appears while scaling or changing the virtual height as long
as the Smart Zoom feature is enabled. Normally, the system will position the map in a way that
the GPS position will remain visible at any point on the map (whilst using map North orientation)
or always in the upper half of the map (whilst using driving direction orientation). When moving
the map manually, the map will become fixed at the new position. Press the Freeze button to go
back to the GPS position.
47
The scale indication will only appear on the map display. In 2D view it represents the map
scale. In 3D view it only represents the scale of the map section near the current position. The
map scale can be used to zoom the map both in 2D and 3D view. Dragging the slider to the
right increases the map scale, dragging it to the left decreases it.
Cursor (16)
When tapping any point on the map or when selecting a specific POI under Find, this point will
become selected on the map. It will be marked by a small red dot and continuously growing red
circles will make it well visible. You may use this point as starting point, waypoint or destination
of your route.
Tap the cursor to open the Cursor menu.
48
Next Street/Next Locality – Current Street (17 + 18)
This field indicates the next route on your itinerary. If you are yet not in the place the road
belongs to, the name of the locality instead of the street name will appear. The name of the
place will be marked with a dot in order to distinguish it from street names.
In Cockpit mode this field will show the name and number (if applicable) of the street
where you are currently driving.
Itinerary and Route Information (20 + 21 + 22)
The contents of these three fields varies depending on whether you are simply driving (without
using any active route) or if you are navigating (driving along an active route). When driving
without any active route, the fields will show your current speed, the local speed limitation and
the time. Under Advanced Settings => Display Options you can define the contents of these
fields for navigation mode. Below you will find a list of choices for these settings. The only
limitation on your choice is that you may not select a parameter if the same parameter has
already be chosen to be displayed in another field. Field contents choices are:
Distance to destination (default setting for the upper field)
Time to destination (estimated time enroute, default setting for middle field)
Distance to next waypoint
Time to next waypoint
Time to next manoeuvre (next route event)
Speed
Speed limit
Arrival at next waypoint
Estimated time of arrival at destination (default setting for the lower field)
49
Distance to next road junction (19)
This fields shows the distance to the next route event (road junction, roundabout, exit, etc.). This
field only appears while navigating, e.g. an active route has been selected.
The cursor is the selected point on the map (a
red dot emitting red circles) or the current GPS
position whenever available and position
tracking has been turned on. When tapping the
screen to set the cursor, the Cursor menu will
automatically appear below, offering a list of
available cursor functions. At the same time,
the popup information (street name, street
number and list of nearby POIs) will appear
next to the selected map point, as long as the
option Popup Info has been enabled in Settings
menu. If you don't use the Cursor menu within
the next few seconds, it will disappear
automatically.
To display the Cursor menu again, tap the
arrow in the lower-right corner.
After opening the menu manually, it will remain
visible until you close it.
Route To
You can set the Cursor position as the
destination of your route. This button will start a
new route. The previous route (if any) will be
deleted (a warning message will appear) and
replaced.
50
Start
You can set the Cursor position as the starting
point of your route. This menu item will only be
available in map mode and only when no active
route has been selected. In Cockpit mode, the
start point will always be the current GPS
position or – if no GPS position can be obtained
– the last known GPS position.
Inserting Waypoints
By inserting the selected map point as a
waypoint, you will have to go to this point before
going to your destination. This allows you to
define a route with several waypoints in
reversed order (this is useful when you want to
"go to A but refuel at B" or if you want to
influence the route itinerary). This menu item is
available only after a route has been activated.
Deleting Intermediate Points
Removes the intermediate point next to the
cursor. The route will be recalculated without
this point. This menu item will appear instead of
"Add Via" and is only available if the cursor is
located near an intermediate point.
51
Inserting Pins
Inserts a coloured pin at the selected point on the
map, allowing easy identification of this point later
on. This pin will be visible at any zoom level and
also appear together with all exact details in the
history list. The pin colour will be selected
automatically.
Unpin
Removes the pin next to the cursor. This menu
item will appear instead of "Pin" and is only
available if the cursor is located near a pin.
Continue
This allows you to set a new destination to go to
after the other intermediate points. The new
destination point will replace the previous
destination, and the previous destination will
become a waypoint. This allows you to plan an
itinerary with several intermediate destinations to
be driven to one after the other (when wanting to
go to several destinations following the principle:
"go to A, then go to B"). This menu item is
available only after the route has been activated.
The old route will display in bright green, the new
route in dark green.
52
Points of Interest (POI)
The POI command opens a list of points of
interest near the selected point. This is a POI list
in the popup information window. To insert a new
POI at the cursor position, tap New in the lower
left-hand corner. This menu item will appear
instead of "Add POI" and is only available in map
mode if at least one POI is located near the
cursor.
Add POI
POI opens a new POI data window allowing you
to add customised points of interest to the list.
This menu items is only available in map mode
and only if no POIs are located near the cursor
(for example, if there is only one address
displayed in the popup information window).
53
Display Route Information
Route data can be displayed only after a
route has been activated.
There are two ways to access this menu:
tap Info in the Route menu or tap any of the
route data fields in Cockpit mode (see
picture left).
The Route Information display contains all
data and some functions that are useful
during navigation. Some additional
information can be found in the Route menu.
If no route has been activated, all buttons except
one are disabled and the route data cannot be
displayed.
54
INFORMATION
The left part of the screen contains some information on the current route. The contents of
these fields is updated continuously. Tap on any field to view details of the different waypoints
until you reach your final destination.
Distance Left
This is the distance left to the final destination of
your journey. If you have defined any waypoints,
tap repeatedly on this field to view the distance to
the first, second, etc. waypoint.
Time Left
This is an estimated value. It represents the
estimated time necessary to reach the final
destination.
If you have defined any waypoints, tap repeatedly
on this field.
Estimated Arrival
This is an estimated value. It represents the
estimated time at which you'll reach the final
destination. If you have defined any waypoints, tap
repeatedly on this field.
Method

route.
55
Destination/Waypoint
This field contains the exact address of your
destination. If you have defined any waypoints,
tap repeatedly on this field to find the address.
Route Line
The upper part of the screen represents the
planned route as a horizontal line. The left end
of this line is the virtual start of your route, the
right end the final destination. The waypoints
are represented by small flag icons. The blue
arrow (yellow at night) that represents your
position will move from left to right as you
advance. When reaching a waypoint, it will
automatically become the starting point for the
next route line, and the past route segment will
be deleted. Whenever the fields on the left
show information on the entire itinerary, the
route line will have the same colour as the route
on the map. Whenever data belonging to a
waypoint is displayed, the route will only be
coloured up to this waypoint and the remaining
route part will remain grey.
56
Warning Icons
Normally, the five fields containing warning icons are
grey. Some of them light up in red and show an icon
whenever warnings for the active route are being
displayed. These icons represent warnings for the
entire route. If you tap on one of these icons, a
description of its function will appear.
Below there are some examples:
1. This icon alerts you that toll is to be paid on the recommended route.
2. This icon means that the route uses motorways. Tap on this icon to show the total
motorway distance on your route.
3. This icon alerts you that a toll is to be paid on some roads of the recommended route.
4. This icon tells you that a ferry is to be used on your route.
5. The ferry is subject to additional costs.
6. This icon appears when no route could be planned taking into account all your
requirements regarding road types. Sometimes it is not possible to find a suitable road
near the starting point or the destination.
7. This icon alerts you that not all your preferences could be effected while planning the
route.
8. The recommended route contains segments that may only the reached by walking.
9. The recommended route includes unpaved roads.
10. The recommended route contains segments that may only be reached by obtaining special
authorisation.
11. Information – any kind of information that does not belong to one of the above categories.
Tap on the icon to view its contents.

Route Recalculation
This menu item is available only when there is an active route and it is possible to determine the
GPS position. It opens a menu screen containing four options. Each of these options lets you
modify the active route.
64
Recalculate
This function repeats the route calculation based
on the same settings as before. This option is to
be used when the automatic Off-route
recalculation has been disabled. You can use
this function while driving parallel to a suggested
route.
In this case it can take a while for the program to
recalculate, so you can have it recalculate the
route manually.
Good to Know
This submenu opens automatically upon each route recalculation as long as the
option has been enabled under Settings => General => Off-route Recalculation.
Bypass
Whenever you encounter a traffic jam or a
closed road you can have the program
recalculate a route to circumnavigate this
situation as quickly as possible.
However, you must specify a minimum distance
after which you want to re-join the original route.
Choose a distance that is suitable for the
present traffic problem.
65
Good to Know
This function has been designed to offer an alternate route for the next route
segment. To modify route segments later on or to avoid certain roads or junctions,
use the function Avoid from the Itinerary menu. When using this function, the
program will avoid this section of the map until you delete the route manually or
restart the navigation device.
Delete Next Waypoint/Delete Route
You can change your route in a way that the next
waypoint will be ignored if you decide you don't
want to go there any more.
If no waypoints are available (only the
destination), the button label will change to Delete
Route. Clicking this button also stops navigation.
Good to Know
The function Delete Route has a special function when using the option Avoid. As
soon as you reach your destination the route will be deleted. But while planning a
route, all roads, manoeuvres and places that you had avoided in the previous route
will also be avoided. Therefore, tap Clear to erase the previous route with all
restrictions.
66
Cancel
This command brings you back to the map
screen without recalculating.
Itinerary
This functions opens an itinerary
description (list of route events) for the
active route. The menu Itinerary offers
three different detailed lists and two
functions. The different route event lists
differ by the number of events they contain.
The different list items always appear with
all available information, i.e. with icons of
the required manoeuvres as well as the
distance to the route event.
The itinerary description is updated
continuously while navigating. The list item
you are currently navigating on will be the
highlighted one until you tap on a different
item.
67
Detailed Instructions
This list will appear when you open the
Itinerary. It is a detailed event list.
Instructions
When tapping the Mode button once, a list of
events will open that requires greater attention
on your part, e.g. a list of manoeuvres along
the route. These events will appear in the
manoeuvre preview and will be announced
along with audible events.
Route Summary
Tap on Mode once again to obtain a route
summary that lists only the major roads and
road junctions.
Avoid
You can avoid a list item (for instance a
motorway segment that is prone to traffic jams
or a difficult road junction). Simply tap the
desired item on the route list. The following
options are available:
68
Show
When enabling a route segment and tapping on
Show…
... …the route segment will appear immediately
in Cockpit view.
Manoeuvre:
The Manoeuvre option avoids the marked place.
For instance, if you feel a turn will be too difficult
during rush hour traffic, the program will
recalculate your route without that turn.
Road:
If you exclude a specific road, MyGuide
recalculates the route without this road. This
function is very useful for going around traffic
jams or when you have heard a traffic message
broadcast announcing that the road has been
closed.
Distances:
The list also contains several distance buttons.
Their function is similar to those in the list
contained under the menu Recalculate =>
Bypass, but here you can use them for distant
route segments. In our example a 30km-long
motorway segment will be replaced by a national
road via Road => 30 km.
69
Edit
Tap Edit to show all routes. You can edit the list in
the following way:
Add:
This allows you to add a new route.
Delete:
This allows you to delete the selected route.
Warning: the program will delete it without
prompting you.
Optimise:
This will optimise the waypoint order. Up and
Down: these buttons allow you to sort the list by
moving the selected item up or down.
In our example a new route is added. After
tapping the Add button the Find menu will appear,
allowing you to define a new route.
70
Delete
Tap on Delete to permanently erase the active
route including all points (starting points,
waypoints and destination). The program will
prompt you prior to deleting. The function has a
special role when you have been using the option
Avoid. Once you have reached your destination
the route line will disappear from the map and the
navigation is cancelled. At this point, the route is
erased: however, when planning a new route, all
roads, manoeuvres and places that you had
avoided in the previous route will also be
avoided. Therefore, tap Clear to erase the
previous route with all restrictions.
71
ENTERING DESTINATIONS AND ROUTE

SOME NAVIGATION EXAMPLES
Navigating a Route with Two Waypoints
1. Enter a Destination via "Find and Go"
First enter the destination city. If you only know
the post code, tap Keys to toggle to the numeric
keypad and enter the postcode.
2. Enter the Street
To enter the street name "Princess Grace
Palace" simply enter "P, space, G, space, P".
The program will locate the street in the
database.
3. Enter the Street Number
Next to the <House Number> field you'll find a
list of street numbers contained in the database.
4. Start Navigating
As you have defined your destination via "Search
and Find" the program will directly jump to the
route starting point and Cockpit view once you
have entered your destination. On the left you
can see important information on your route.
88
5. Finding Waypoints
While on the way to your destination you decide
to go to a pharmacy. To do so, search a
Pharmacy POI in the zoomed map view along or
near your route.
6. Inserting Waypoints
Place the cursor at the POI position on the map.
Detailed information will be shown. Tap on Add
Via and the pharmacy will be saved as a
waypoint. Don't tap Route To, otherwise you'll
delete your route to the destination.
7. Refreshing the Map View with Waypoint
The waypoint will be marked by a white flag on
the map.
8. Another Waypoint
And now you have to refuel on the way to your
destination. Again, you can use the POI
database. To do so, search a Petrol Station POI
in the zoomed map view along or near your
route. Tap on Add Via and the petrol station will
be saved as a waypoint.
89
9. Total Route Map View
The map view with the entire route contains a
blue flag for your starting position, two white flags
for the two waypoints and one red flag for your
destination.
10. Route Information
Before you go, read the Route Information (Menu
=> Route => Info). Here you can see a summary
of information on your route. The straight route
segment on top shows two waypoints.
Start (bottom left): detailed graphical
representation of the first manoeuvre (turn
right) with distance (84 m) to the manoeuvre.
If no critical items exist along the route
segment, the map automatically toggles to
Overview mode (see figure below).
At the same time, a voice will guide you.
90
11. First Waypoint
The bright green segment represents the active
route, the dark green segment represents the
route that is not active yet that comes after the
waypoint.
12. Second Waypoint
The second waypoint along your route leads
you to the petrol station.
13. Route Information
Read the Route Information for the last route
segment (Menu => Route => Info). Here you
can see a summary of information about your
remaining route. The straight route
representation on top does not show any
waypoints but only the remaining track to your
destination.
91
14. Roundabout
Just before reaching your destination you
approach a roundabout. The graphic
representation on the top left indicates that you
have to take the seventh exit (roundabout icon
with a 7 in the centre).
15. Arrival at Destination
Only 160 m left to destination: The destination
flag appears in the upper left-hand corner.
92
OFFLINE ROUTE PLANNING
Planning a Route without GPS Position
1. Set your Starting Point
You want to plan a route while at home. As for
offline route planning without any GPS signal
you only need the on-screen map. From the
main menu select the map mode and set the
cursor at the starting point on the map.
2. Find Your Destination
Search for the destination city in "Recent
Destinations" (or enter it via the keypad) and
enter the street name and number. Tap Route
To to enable the route from the cursor position
to the destination. As you have no GPS
reception and didn't enter you destination via
"Find and Go" the route will not be activated
automatically.
3. Inserting Waypoints
Instead of going directly to your destination
you want to visit St. Peter's Square in Rome.
Under POIs look for St. Peter's Square, tap
the POI and confirm by tapping Add Via. (Then
toggle to Remove Via in the menu). The last
segment is not allowed for vehicles (red
segment). The active route (bright green)
leads you to the waypoint.
93
4. Route Information
Under Route Information you'll see the
destination address in Rome. However, there is
more distance (km) to run because the waypoint
is located behind the destination and you will
have to go back to reach your destination. Thus,
the Distance in km is shown as the total trip
distance.
5. Swapping Destination and Waypoint
At this point you decide to go to the Colosseum
first and afterwards to St. Peter's Square in order
to have more time to visit St. Peter's Square. To
do so, edit the route segment order in Menu =>
Route => Edit. Simply move the route segment
Città del Vaticano "Down" to the last position
along the route.
94
6. Destination Set
Now St. Peter's Square (the earlier waypoint)
has become your destination. This status is
indicated by a red flag. The active bright green
route brings you to your waypoint, the
Colosseum (the earlier destination). As soon as
your device detects a GPS signal it starts
calculating the route automatically and you can
start navigating.
95
NAVIGATION DEVICE AND PC
To be able to copy data to the SD card, your PC must have access to this SD card.
The SD Card – Interface between the Navigation Device and the PC
You can transfer data to your navigation device via the SD card or via a USB connection. This
allows you to store additional maps, pictures, videoclips, movies and games. Simply establish a
connection between your SD card and the PC (the PC acts as a data source) or connect the
navigation device and the PC by using a USB cable. An SD card reader is required (unless your
PC or notebook already features a built-in card reader) or a Mini USB cable. To use a card
reader, perform the following steps.
Purchase an SD card reader for USB port.
Connect the card reader to the PC.
Insert the SD card into the card reader.
Copy the desired data onto the SD card.
Eject the SD card and insert it into the navigation device.
Now you can access the new data.
To use a USB connection, perform the following steps.

Troubleshooting
Possible solutions for the most common questions and problems
99
Device Problems Possible Solutions
Bad or no GPS reception.
Make sure that the GPS antenna has a clear sight to the sky.
The GPS reception can be altered by the following:
- bad weather
- dense and high obstacles (e.g. trees or buildings)
- other devices installed in the car that use radio
frequency
- tinted or reflective windshields
No blue arrow appears indicating my
position. Navigation does not start.
Verify the GPS status icon on the main menu, the map
screen or the GPS data screen. It is likely that the system
cannot determine your GPS position. Drive on to go to a
place where a good GPS signal reception is guaranteed.
GPS calculates correct tracking data but I
don't see the blue arrow (yellow at night)
that normally indicates my position.
You see the large Follow icon on the screen. Tap on this
icon to enable the Lock-to Position function that restores the
map to your present position.
The blue arrow (yellow at night) indicates
my position but I don't see the route
(green or red line) and obtain no voice
guidance.
There may be no active route. Check the upper-left screen
corner in Cockpit view to see if the icon indicating the next
turn is shown. If this field is blank, no route has been
planned. You have to create a route first. It is a common
mistake to search for a destination, view it on the map but
forget to tap Route To from the Cursor menu to create the
route. Make sure you follow these steps or plan your route
via the "Find and Go" button. This will calculate the route
automatically as soon as the destination has been selected.
I cannot see the Follow icon on my
screen, however, the map doesn't turn
according to my driving direction.
Look for a small "N" on the compass icon or for an aircraft
icon. It is likely that you have toggled to North orientation
map mode or Overview mode accidentally. Tap this icon to
toggle to driving direction mode.
100
Device Problems Possible Solutions
To create a route including waypoints I
have tapped Route To for any waypoint,
but only the last route appears on the
list, all the others have disappeared.
The Route To button will create a new route only. You have
to tap this button after you have selected the destination for
each route. However, routes with waypoints may be created
after creating a single route with a destination. Add the
waypoints by tapping the buttons Add Via and Continue.
When tapping the Route To button again, the entire route
will be erased. In your case, you had only defined individual
routes and deleted them directly. If there is a route
containing waypoints, the program will display a warning
message when attempting to delete them.
The mute icon indicates that Mute is off,
however, I cannot hear any voice
guidance.
Mute is available from both map screens and is intended to
quickly mute the sound. The voice guidance and key
sounds must be enabled and the volume can be adjusted in
the Settings => Sound dialogue box.
I have enabled the Max. Overspeed
function upon first setup of my navigation
system. However, I had to pay a
speeding fine because the program didn't
warn me
For accurate speed limit warnings, speed limits must exist
for all roads on the map. This is a relatively new feature in
digital maps and not available for all countries or areas. It is
also possible that the accuracy needs to be improved
sometimes. This feature is designed to assist you on some
occasions but cannot be considered an accurate warning
system. Therefore you may enable or disable it
independently from the voice guidance.
I want to add a new POI while navigating
(Cockpit view) but there is no Add POI
button in the Cursor menu.
For safety reasons, Add POI is only available from the map
screen. Place a pin at the desired point and save it as POI
once you reach your destination.
I want to create a POI but there are other
POIs nearby this position and the POI
menu item opens the old POI list instead
of creating a new one.
Look for the New button in the lower left-hand corner of the
opened list. Tap this button to add a new POI just as you
would do from the Cursor menu.

GLOSSARY AND INDEX
(Explanation of the most important technical terms)
2D/3D GPS tracking:
The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to track its (your) position. Depending on the current
position of the orbiting satellites in the sky and the objects located around you, the received
signal will be strong or weak. Your GPS unit requires strong signals from at least four satellites
to be able to calculate your position in three dimensions (including elevation). When only three
satellites are visible, position tracking is still possible, but the accuracy will be lower and no
elevation can be determined. This is called 2D tracking. The signal quality is shown in the
Navigation Main menu, the GPS data display and the two map displays of the navigation
device. 2D or 3D tracking does not influence the map display modes. The display mode is a way
to represent maps that does not depend on the GPS reception.
Accuracy at current position:
The difference between your real position and the position determined by GPS is affected by
several factors. You GPS receiver can estimate the error based on the number and position of
the satellites emitting the signals. This information is displayed on the GPS data display of your
device. A smaller value indicates a higher accuracy. An accuracy of 1.0 is the optimum. This will
be the reference value. Please note that the GPS accuracy depends on some additional factors
that cannot be corrected by your GPS receiver (signal delay through ionospheric effects,
reflective materials next to the GPS device, etc.).
Active route:
This route is an itinerary planned to reach the desired destinations. A route is called active when
used for navigation. Thus, the program will only have one single navigation route that will
remain active until you delete it, you reach your destination or you exit the program. If you want
to go to more than one destination, the route will be segmented (from one waypoint to the next
waypoint). Only one of these route segments can be active at any one time. The other
segments will remain inactive and are represented by a different colour on the map.
Automatic day and night colours:
MyGuide can calculate sunrise and sunset based on the local time and geographic coordinates.
Based on this information, the system will toggle from daylight to night colours a few minutes
after sunset and back to daylight colours prior to sunrise.
To improve the orientation, the 3D map view will also show the sun's position in the sky when
selecting a lower virtual height.
Automatic route planning:
(Autorouting): You simply need to specify your destination and the program will determine the
most suitable roads and road intersections to reach it, based on the built-in maps. MyGuide
offers different possibilities to select the destination as well as several route planning
parameters.
106
Automatic route recalculation:
When this function has been enabled, the navigation program will recalculate the route if you
deviate from the planned route. If you miss an exit or need to go around a closed road, the
program will wait for a few seconds and determine whether you are really no following your
planned route (this time can be defined in Advanced Settings), and recalculates the route based
on your current position and driving direction.
Driving direction:
A type of map orientation where the map is always aligned to the direction of travel. See also =>
North orientation and => Map orientation.
Elevation:
When receiving signals from four or more satellites the GPS receiver can calculate the position
in three dimensions. In this case, the elevation is calculated along with latitude and longitude.
Please note that elevation data is usually less accurate (at least twice) as the geographic
coordinates. See also 2D/3D GPS tracking.
ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival):
A commonly used term for navigation. It represents the local time at which you will arrive at your
destination. It is calculated based on the remaining distance and different information on the
roads to be used. This information is a reference value only. It does not take into consideration
your future driving speed nor any possible traffic jams, etc. Your navigation device will show this
value as "Estimated Arrival" on the Route Information display.
ETE (Estimated Time Enroute):
A commonly used term for navigation. It represents the time you will take to arrive at your
destination. It is calculated based on the remaining distance and different information on the
roads to be used. This information is a reference value only. It does not take into consideration
your future driving speed nor any possible traffic jams, etc. Your navigation device will show this
value as "Time Left" on the Route Information display.
GPS:
Acronym of Global Positioning System. This system is operated by the Department of Defense
of the United States of America. It consists of 24 satellites orbiting the Earth as well as several
ground stations controlling satellite synchronisation. The receiver calculates the satellite position
based on the almanac data contained in the signals they broadcast, as long as they can be
received at your present position. This service is free.
Keep Position On Road:
This function will always place the blue arrow (yellow at night) that indicates your current
position onto the next available road. This setting is necessary because the GPS position
calculated by the receiver is not 100% accurate. Under normal circumstances the Keep Position
on Road function will eliminate rarely-occurring positioning errors. However, whenever the error
rate becomes too high, it is likely for your position to appear on a different road on the map. The
Keep Position on Road function is enabled by default as soon as a GPS position can be
107
calculated. You may, however, disable it under Advanced Settings when moving by bicycle or in
pedestrian mode.
Lock-to Position:
If a GPS position can be obtained the program will move the map so that the blue arrow (yellow
at night) showing your current position will always stay within the display area. You can move or
rotate the map to restore the position. In this case a button labelled "Follow" will appear on
screen. When tapping this button or an entry the status "Lock-to Position" will be restored.
Map orientation:
The program can rotate the map. When selecting the driving direction orientation, the map will
always face the direction of travel. When selecting North orientation the map will be aligned
always with its top towards the North. Use the semi-transparent icon to move the map into the
desired position. This will disable the automatic orientation. A small compass in the upper right-
hand corner on the map will always display the map orientation. Please do not mix map
orientation with the display orientation which changes the display aspect.
NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association):
This is a standardised communications protocol. This association has defined a standard for
electronic marine equipment. One of these standards is NMEA-0183, which defines standards
for electronic signals as well as a communications protocol defining the time and position data.
Nowadays, this standard is not only used for marine applications but for most GPS devices.
Your navigation system – as well as many other GPS devices – use this protocols by default.
North orientation:
A map orientation where the northern border of the map is located at the top of the display. See
also Driving direction orientation and Map orientation.
POI (Point of interest):
A special destination: an exact map position of a specific point that is stored in a database with
its name, category and sub-category (e.g. service/gas etc.), address, phone and fax number as
well as further important information. Use the smart MyGuide search function to locate a
suitable POI close to you, near your destination or at any other place on the map. It is also
possible to save your favourite places as custom POIs.
SiRF:
This is the name of a popular GPS chipset manufacturer. Its special communications protocol
can be processed by any navigation device. GPS devices using SiRF can also communicate via
NMEA – the default communications protocol of your navigation device.
Track Log:
MyGuide is able to log your position once a second (or at different intervals, depending on the
GPS settings), thus providing a track log. Once you have enabled track logging, your position
details for a route are saved into a database until you stop logging. The logged GPS position
series is called track log. Each of these series has its own name (by default the logging time;
however, you may change the name if you want). It is also possible to choose a colour for the
108
track to be displayed on the map. This allows you to display the track on the screen at any time.
This feature is useful to show the route to other people or to analyse the manoeuvres performed
on that route.
Waypoint:
Your navigation device allows you to enter any number of destinations you may want to go one
after the other. All these points except of the last one (the final destination) are called waypoints.
Waypoints are marked by flags on the Route Information straight line showing the route. Each
waypoint will be announced by a voice message when approaching or reaching it. When
stopping at a waypoint, navigation resumes automatically once you continue your journey.
Navigation will also resume after turning the device off and back on or restarting the program.
Zoom in and out:
The zoom function is used to change the map scale. Zooming in provides a more detailed and
larger map view, but showing a smaller area. Zooming out provides a wider, but less detailed
area view.
