QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
06 Questions & Answers Frequently asked questions The vehicle’s position on the map is incorrect. The Global Positioning System (GPS) indicates the car’s position with an accuracy of about 65 feet (20 meters). Accuracy may be even less when driving on roads lying parallel to another road, winding roads, roads on several levels, and also after driving a long distance without making any distinct turns. Tall buildings and mountains, tunnels, viaducts, over/underpasses etc.
06 Questions & Answers Frequently asked questions 1. Switch off the VNS system and the ignition. What is the easiest way to check the current map version? 2. Switch on the ignition again and restart VNS, but remain at a standstill for a short time before driving off. See Settings System information Map version: for information about the map version and which geographic area it covers. I am planning a long trip but do not want to specify destinations in the cities that I will be passing through.
