Common operations during map navigation

Some common operations during map navigation are described below.
  • Where am I?
  • Find the car symbol on the map
  • Driving direction or north up on the map
  • 2D or 3D display
  • Zoom
  • Scroll
  • Switching heading display
  • Return from a menu

Where am I?

What geographic position does the car have now?
  • Press the map's car symbol (blue triangle) - the information is shown directly on the map.

Find the car symbol on the map

P5-1507-Nav-Hitta bilen
Press the crosshairs symbol.
After zooming in and out and scrolling around on the map it can sometimes be hard to find your way back to the car's position on the map. This is the simplest way to find it:
  • Press the crosshairs symbol - the map is then reset and thereafter follows the car symbol.

Driving direction or north up on the map

P5-1507-Nav-Norr eller Körriktn UPPÅT
Press the compass to change the car symbol’s movement on the map.
The driver can choose between two ways to represent the car's movement in relation to the map:
  • The map is always shown with north upwards on the centre display - the car symbol moves in its true compass direction on the map. If the car symbol moves to the left on the map then the car is driving westwards.
  • The car symbol always points upwards on the centre display - the map rotates under the car symbol depending on how the car turns. The compass symbol indicates the direction of north (N) on the map, and the centre of the compass shows the direction in which the front of the car is pointing (in this case NE = Northeast).
Compass symbolsCompass direction
N(North): North
NE(NorthEast): Northeast
E(East): East
SE(SouthEast): Southeast
S(South): South
SW(SouthWest):Southwest
W(West): West
NW(NorthWest):Northwest

2D or 3D display

P5-1507-Nav-2D eller 3D
Press 2D/3D to change between 2D and 3D display.

In 3D display, the car’s heading is always upwards on the centre display - the map rotates around the car symbol depending on how the car turns.

The compass symbol indicates which direction north is (N) on the map, and the centre of the compass shows the direction in which the front of the car is pointing.

The map scale is not shown in the 3D mode.

2D display is described under the previous heading "Driving direction or north up on the map".
