8 1 W arnings and safety information Uniden Navigation is a navigation system that helps you nd your way to your selected destination. It will determine your exact location with the help of an attached GPS device. The position information obtained from the GPS receiver will not be transmitted anywhere, so others will not be able to track you by [...]

9 2 General information Uniden Navigation is a navigation system optimised for in-car use. It provides door- to-door navigation for both single and multi-point routes using adaptable route parameters. Uniden Navigation is capable of planning routes throughout the whole map region installed on the memory card. Unlike some other products, Uniden Navi[...]

10 3 Operating Uniden Navigation (Controls) Uniden Navigation is designed for easy operation. All controls are operable by ngertips.

15 4 Discovering the program through the screens The best way to discover Uniden Navigation is to explore each screen in detail, and to nd out how to move from one to another .

22 Streets and roads have names or numbers for identication. Of course, this information can be displayed on the map. Uniden Navigation uses two different ways to show street labels. The conventional way is the same as a roadmap – it displays the name of the street aligned with the street. The alternative is a kind of virtual signpost stuck in[...]

23 4.4.6 Current position and Lock-on-Road When your GPS position is available, a blue arrow (yellow when using night colours) shows your location on the map. The direction of the arrow represents your heading. The arrow is sized and vertically rotated with the zoom and tilt levels to always look realistic. Uniden Navigation has a built-in Lock-on-[...]

24 Note: When your GPS position is available, and Lock-to-Position (Page 30) is active, the cursor is the current GPS position, the blue arrow . When you select another point by tapping the map, or using the Find menu (Page 74), the new Cursor is shown on the display with the red dot and the radiating red circles. 4.4.8 Marked map points (Pin) The [...]

25 POIs are represented by icons on the map. For a built-in POI it is the icon of the subcategory of the actual POI. For points you create, it is the icon you had chosen when you created the POI (it can be changed later). These icons are large enough to recognise the symbol, and semi-transparent so as not to cover the streets and junctions behind t[...]

26 4.4.10 Elements of the Active Route Uniden Navigation uses a multi-destination routing system in which you have a start point (your current location if GPS position is available), a destination, the line of the active leg of the route, and optionally via points and inactive legs. They are all shown on the map. 4.4.10.1 The start point, via point[...]
