If you select Off-Road navigation, the current position marker is at your exact GPS position. The
direction of the icon shows your current heading.
2.3.3 The planned route
The planned route is the currently navigated route. Whenever the destination is set, the route is active
until you delete it, reach your destination or suspend navigation. Alpine Navigation System displays
the route in the following ways:
Symbol Name Description
Current GPS position
and starting point
It is your current position displayed on the map.
• If a vehicle is selected for route calculation and roads are
near, the arrow jumps to the nearest road.
• The dot near the arrow shows the exact GPS position.
Normally, if GPS position is available, the route starts from the
current position. If there is no valid GPS position, Alpine Navigation
System uses the last known position as the starting point.
Waypoint
(intermediate
destination)
It is an intermediate destination of the route before reaching the
final destination.
Destination (end point) It is the final destination of the route.
Route color
The route always stands out with its color on the map, both in
daytime and night color modes.
Streets and roads that
are excluded from the
navigation
You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain road
types (page 72). However, when Alpine Navigation System cannot
avoid such roads, the route includes them and shows them in a
color that is different from the route color.
Streets and roads that
are affected by traffic
events
Road segments may be affected by traffic events. These streets
and roads are displayed in a different color, and small symbols
displayed along the route show the type of the traffic event.
2.3.4 Turn preview and next street
When navigating a route, the top section of the Navigation view shows information about the next
route event (maneuver) and the next street or the next town.
There is a field in the top left corner displaying the next maneuver. Both the type of the maneuver
(turn, traffic circle, exiting freeway, and so on) and its distance from the current position are displayed.
