Operating Instructions

PRECAUTIONS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS

PRODUCT.

This product is intended to safely provide turn-by-turn instructions to get you to a desired destination. Please read the following precautions to ensure that you use this navigation system correctly.

• This product is not a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route suggestions made by this navigation system should never supersede any local traffic regulations or your personal judgment and/or knowledge of safe driving practises. Do not follow route suggestions if the navigation system instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal manoeuvre, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider unsafe.

• Glance at the screen only when necessary and safe to do so. If prolonged viewing of the screen is necessary, stop in a safe and legal manner and location.

• Do not input destinations, change settings, or access any functions requiring a prolonged view of the monitor while you are driving. Stop in a safe and legal manner and location before attempting to access the system.

• When using the navigation system to find/route to an emergency service, please contact the facility to validate and verify availability, prior to driving to it. Not all locations of emergency service providers such as police and fire stations, hospitals, and clinics are contained in the database. Please use your own judgment and your ability to ask for directions in these situations.

• The map database contained within the media (SD memory card) in which it is stored is the most recent map data available at the time of production. Because of changes in streets and neighborhoods, there may be situations where the navigation system may not be able to route you to your desired destination.

In these cases, use your own personal judgment.

• The map database is designed to provide you with route suggestions, it does not take account of the relative safety of a suggested route, or of factors which may affect the time required to reach your destination. The system does not reflect road closures or construction, road characteristics (i.e. type of road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.), traffic congestion, weather conditions, or any other factors which may affect the safety or timing of your driving experience.

Use your personal judgment if the navigation system is unable to provide you with an alternate route.

• There may be situations where the navigation system may display the vehicle’s location erroneously. Use your own driving judgment in this situation, taking into account current driving conditions. Please be aware that in this situation, the navigation system should correct the vehicle’s position automatically; however, there may be times where you may have to correct the position yourself. If this is the case, stop in a safe and legal manner and location before attempting operation.

• Make certain that the volume level of the unit is set to a level which still allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles. Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.

• Please make certain that any other person who intends on using this navigation system reads these precautions and the following instructions carefully.

If there is anything in the manual about the operation of the navigation system which you are uncertain about, please contact your local Alpine authorised navigation dealer before using the navigation system.

WARNING

Points to Observe for Safe Usage

• Read this manual carefully before using this disc and the system components. They contain instructions on how to use this product in a safe and effective manner. Alpine cannot be responsible for problems resulting from failure to observe the instructions in this manual.

• This manual uses various pictorial displays to show you how to use this product safely and to alert you to potential dangers resulting from improper connections and operation. Following are the meanings of these pictorial displays. It is important to fully understand the meanings of these pictorial displays in order to use this manual and the system properly.

WARNING

• Operation of the system while driving is dangerous. Users should stop vehicle before operating the software.

• Road conditions and regulations take precedence over information contained on the map display: observe actual traffic restrictions and circumstances while driving.

• This software is designed for use exclusively in the X009E.

It cannot and may not be used in conjunction with other hardware.

WARNING

This symbol means important instructions.

Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.

INSTALL THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY SO THAT THE DRIVER

CANNOT WATCH TV/VIDEO UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS

STOPPED AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS APPLIED.

It is dangerous (and illegal in many states) for the driver to watch

TV/Video while driving a vehicle. Installing this product incorrectly enables the driver to watch TV/Video while driving.

This may cause a distraction, preventing the driver from looking ahead, thus causing an accident. The driver or other people could be severely injured.

DO NOT WATCH VIDEO WHILE DRIVING.

Watching the video may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTION THAT TAKES YOUR

ATTENTION AWAY FROM SAFELY DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE.

Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be performed after coming to a complete stop. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location before performing these functions. Failure to do so may result in an accident.

DO NOT FOLLOW ROUTE SUGGESTIONS IF THE

NAVIGATION SYSTEM INSTRUCTS YOU TO PERFORM AN

UNSAFE OR ILLEGAL MANEUVER, OR PLACES YOU IN AN

UNSAFE SITUATION OR AREA.

This product is not a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route suggestions by this system should never supersede any local traffic regulations or your personal judgment or knowledge of safe driving practise.

KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL

HEAR OUTSIDE NOISES WHILE DRIVING.

Excessive volume levels that obscure sounds such as emergency vehicle sirens or road warning signals (train crossings, etc.) can be dangerous and may result in an accident. LISTENING AT LOUD

VOLUME LEVELS IN A CAR MAY ALSO CAUSE HEARING

DAMAGE.

MINIMIZE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.

Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.

Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.

(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS SCREWS OUT OF THE

REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING

FUSES.

Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS.

Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result in fire.

USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.

Use for other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock or other injury.

DO NOT PLACE HANDS, FINGERS OR FOREIGN OBJECTS IN

INSERTION SLOTS OR GAPS.

Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the product.

CAUTION

This symbol means important instructions.

Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.

HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS.

Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the product. Return it to your authorized Alpine dealer or the nearest

Alpine Service Centre for repairing.

KEEP FINGERS AWAY WHILE THE MOTORIZED FRONT

PANEL OR MOVING MONITOR IS IN MOTION.

Failure to do so may result in personal injury or damage to the product.

NOTICE

Product Cleaning

Use a soft dry cloth for periodic cleaning of the product. For more severe stains, please dampen the cloth with water only. Anything else has the chance of dissolving the paint or damaging the plastic.

Temperature

Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +45°C

(+113°F) and 0°C (+32°F) before turning your unit on.

Moisture Condensation

You may notice the disc playback sound wavering due to condensation. If this happens, remove the disc from the player and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

Damaged Disc

Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or damaged discs. Playing a bad disc could severely damage the playback mechanism.

Maintenance

If you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.

Return it to your Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service

Station for servicing.

Never Attempt the Following

Do not grip or pull out the disc while it is being pulled back into the player by the automatic reloading mechanism.

Do not attempt to insert a disc into the unit when the unit power is off.

New Discs

To prevent the disc from jamming, “Disc error” is displayed if discs with irregular surfaces are inserted or if discs are inserted incorrectly. When a new disc is ejected immediately after initial loading, use your finger to feel around the inside of the centre hole and outside edge of the disc. If you feel any small bumps or irregularities, this could inhibit proper loading of the disc. To remove the bumps, rub the inside edge of the hole and outside edge of the disc with a ballpoint pen or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

Installation Location

Make sure the X009E will not be installed in a location subjected to:

• Direct sun and heat

• High humidity and water

• Excessive dust

• Excessive vibrations

Correct Handling

Do not drop the disc while handling. Hold the disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels to the disc. Do not write on the disc.

CORRECT

INCORRECT CORRECT

Inserting Discs

Your player accepts only one disc at a time for playback. Do not attempt to load more than one disc.

Make sure the label side is facing up when you insert the disc.

“Disc error” will be displayed on your player if you insert a disc incorrectly.

Playing a disc while driving on a very bumpy road may result in skips, but this will not scratch the disc or damage the player.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Be sure to use round shaped discs only for this unit and never use any special shaped discs.

Use of special shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

Disc Cleaning

Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of the disc could cause the

DVD player to skip. For routine cleaning, wipe the playing surface with a clean, soft cloth from the centre of the disc to the outer edge.

If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a clean, soft cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent before cleaning the disc.

Disc Accessories

There are various accessories available on the market for protecting the disc surface and improving sound quality. However, most of them will influence the thickness and/or diametre of the disc. Using such accessories can cause operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

Discs Playable on This Unit

Playable Discs

The discs listed below can be played on this unit.

Mark (logo) Recorded Content Disc size

DVD Video Audio + Video 12 cm *

Transparent Sheet Disc Stabilizer

Operation of some of the functions of this unit is very complex.

Because of this, it was deemed necessary to place these functions into a special screen. This will restrict operation of these functions to times when the vehicle is parked. This ensures the focus of the driver’s attention will be on the road and not on the X009E. This has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers.

Setup operations cannot be made if the car is moving. The car must be parked and the parking brake must be engaged for the procedure described in the Owner’s Manual to be valid. The warning “If you are driving, please pull over before using this function.” will be displayed if any attempts are made to perform these operations while driving.

• The X009E draws minimal current even when its power switch is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the X009E is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle’s battery, the battery may be discharged.

An SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw) switch (sold separately) can be added to simplify this procedure. Then, you can simply place it in the

OFF position when you leave the vehicle. Turn the SPST switch back

ON before using the X009E. For connecting the SPST switch, refer to the “Connection Diagram of SPST Switch (sold separately)”

(page 91). If the power (ignition) lead is unswitched, it must be disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be left unused for an extended period of time.

Tips for making your own discs

The X009E plays DVD Video, DivX

®

, Audio CD and has a built in

MP3/WMA/AAC decoder.

The following information is designed to help you create your own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA/AAC encoded CD-R/

RW files).

What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA/AAC

CD?

An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)/

WMA (Windows Media Audio)/AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file*.

* If the first session on a disc containing both CD-DA data and

MP3/WMA/AAC data is a CD-DA file, only CD-DA files will be played.

Multisession CD-R/RW:

Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one session.

If the disc is not closed (finalised), additional data may be added.

Once this additional data has been recorded, this becomes a

“multisession” CD.

Properly formatted MP3/WMA/AAC Discs:

Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2

(32 characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file naming conventions*.

* Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.

On handling compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

• Do not touch the surface.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.

• Do not affix stickers or labels.

• Clean the disc when it is dusty.

• Make sure that the disc is smooth and flat.

• Do not use commercially available disc accessories.

Do not leave the disc in the car or the unit for a long time.

Never expose the disc to direct sunlight.

Heat and humidity may damage the disc and you may not be able to play it again.

About MP3/WMA/AAC

CAUTION

Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3/

WMA/AAC data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether for free or for a fee, without permission of the copyright holder is strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international treaty.

What is MP3?

MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3”, is a compression standard prescribed by the ISO, the International

Standardization Organization and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.

MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios, reducing the size of music files to as much as one-tenth their original size. This is achieved while still maintaining near CD quality. The MP3 format realises such high compression ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either inaudible to the human ear or masked by other sounds.

What is WMA?

WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio”, is compressed audio data.

WMA is similar to MP3 audio data.

What is AAC?

AAC is the abbreviation for “Advanced Audio Coding”, and is a basic format of audio compression used by MPEG2 or MPEG4.

Method for creating MP3/WMA/AAC files

Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/WMA/AAC codecs. For details on creating MP3/WMA/AAC files, refer to the user’s manual for that software.

MP3/WMA/AAC files that are playable on this device have the file extensions.

MP3: “mp3”

WMA: “wma” (ver. 7.x, 8.x, 9.x are supported)

AAC: “m4a”

WMA is not supported for the following files, Windows Media

Audio Professional, Windows Media Audio 9 Voice or Windows

Media Audio 9 Pro Lossless.

There are many different versions of the AAC format. Confirm that the software being used conforms to the acceptable formats listed above. It’s possible that the format may be unplayable even though the extension is valid.

Playback of AAC files encoded by iTunes is supported.

Verity the writing order in the software’s documentation. The playback order of the folders and files is as follows. (The following numbers may differ from actually displayed numbers.)

Root

Folder

Terminology

Bit rate

Folder

This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the files.

Sampling rate

This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled

(recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second. The higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the volume of data.

Encoding

Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files into the specified audio compression format.

Tag

Song information such as track titles, artist names, album names, etc., written into MP3/WMA/AAC files.

Root folder

The root folder (or root directory) is found at the top of the file system. The root folder contains all folders and files. It is created automatically for all burned discs.

About Time Correction

The distance between the listener and the speakers in a car vary widely due to the complex speaker placement. This difference in the distances from the speakers to the listener creates a shift in the sounds image and frequency characteristics. This is caused by the time delay between the sound reaching the listener’s right versus the left ear.

To correct this, this unit is able to delay the audio signal to the speakers closest to the listener. This effectively creates a perception of increased distance for those speakers. The listener can be placed at an equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum staging.

The adjustment will be made for each speaker in 3.4 cm steps.

46

-EN

01GB05X009E.fm

ALPINE X009E 68-24567Z66-A (EN)


Example 1. Listening Position: Front Left Seat

Adjust the time correction level of the front left speaker to a high value and the rear right to zero or a low value.

0.5m

2.25m

5.1ms

The sound is not balanced because the distance between the listening position and the various speakers is different.

The difference in distance between the front left speaker and the rear right speaker is 1.75 m (68-7/8").

Here we calculate the time correction value for the front left speaker in the diagram on the above.

Conditions:

Farthest Speaker – listening position : 2.25 m (88-9/16")

Front left speaker – listening position : 0.5 m (19-11/16")

Calculation: L = 2.25 m – 0.5 m = 1.75 m (68-7/8")

Time correction = 1.75 ÷ 343 * × 1,000 = 5.1 (ms)

* Speed of sound: 343 m/s (765 mph) at 20°C

In other words, giving the front left speaker a time correction value of

5.1 ms makes it seem as if its distance from the listener is the same as the distance to the farthest speaker.

Time correction eliminates the differences in the time required for the sound to reach the listening position.

The time of the front left speaker is corrected by 5.1 ms so that its sound reaches the listening position at the same time as the sound of other speakers.

Example 2. Listening Position: All Seats

Adjust the time correction level of each speaker to almost the same level.

1

Sit in the listening position (driver’s seat, etc.) and measure the distance (in metres) between your head and the various speakers.

2

Calculate the difference between the distance correction value to the farthest speaker and the other speakers.

L = (distance to farthest speaker) – (distance to other speakers)

These values are the time correction values for the different speakers. Setting these values to make each sound reach the listening position at the same time as the sound of other speakers.

About the Crossover

Crossover (X-OVER):

This unit is equipped with an active crossover. The crossover limits the frequencies delivered to the outputs. Each channel is controlled independently. Thus, each speaker pair can be driven by the frequencies for which they have been optimally designed.

The crossover adjusts the HPF (high pass filter) or LPF (low pass filter) of each band, and also the slope (how fast the filter rolls off the highs or lows).

Adjustments should be made according to the reproduction characteristics of the speakers. Depending on the speakers, a passive network may not be necessary. If you are unsure about this point, please consult your authorized Alpine dealer.

• HPF (high pass filter): Cuts the lower frequencies and allows the higher frequencies to pass.

• LPF (low pass filter): Cuts the higher frequencies and allows the lower frequencies to pass.

• Slope: The level change (in dB) for a frequency change of one octave.

• The higher the slope value, the steeper the slope becomes.

• Adjust the slope to FLAT to bypass the HP or LP filters.

• Do not use a tweeter without the HPF on or set to a low frequency, as it may cause damage to the speaker due to the low frequency content.

• You cannot adjust the crossover frequency higher than the HPF or lower than the LPF.

• Adjustment should be made according to the recommended crossover frequency of the connected speakers. Determine the recommended crossover frequency of the speakers. Adjusting to a frequency range outside that recommended may cause damage to the speakers.

For the recommended crossover frequencies of Alpine speakers, refer to the respective Owner’s Manual.

We are not responsible for damage or malfunction of speakers caused by using the crossover outside the recommended value.

Indication mark meaning

When the car is put into reverse gear, the monitor switches to the rear view camera image. Guides appear to help visualize the car’s width and distance from the rear bumper.

Distance guidance mark

The distance guides represent the ground level distance from the rear bumper. It is difficult to accurately estimate the distance to objects above ground level.

<Screen>

C

B

A (about 0.5 m)

<Positions of A, B and C> about 1 m

1 Car width extension marks (red, yellow and green in order of distance)

If properly calibrated, the marks indicate the car’s width.

This helps guide the car’s path when backing up in a straight line.

The marks represent the distance from the rear of the car

(from the rear end of the bumper).

• The marks do not move in synchronization with the steering wheel.

2 Distance guidance marks

The marks represent the distance from the rear of the car

(from the rear end of the bumper).

• The marks do not move in synchronization with the steering wheel.

• Each centre position of the mark represents about 0.5 m

(red), about 1 m (yellow) and about 2 m (green) behind.

• Depending on the condition of the car or road surface, the range of vision may vary.

• The camera has a limited range of vision. Objects at extreme angles to the camera (e.g. under the bumper or at opposite ends of the bumper) may not be in the its field-of-vision.

• The rear camera image may have a tint which is different from the actual surroundings.

• Depending on the car, the guidance may deviate to the right or left.

This is not a malfunction.

In the screen, according to the distance guidance marks, the truck seems to be parked about 1 m away (at the position B). In actual fact, however, if you reversed to position A, you would collide with the truck.

In the screen, positions A, B and C seem to be located in order of proximity. However, in actual fact, the position A and C are the same distance, and B is farther away than positions A and C.

• The car width extension mark represents the distance to the road surface. The distance to an object on the road is not accurately represented by the guides.

• In the following conditions, screen visibility may be impaired. This is not a malfunction.

- When it is dark (during the night, etc.).

- Under very high or very low temperature conditions.

- When water drops adhere to the camera, or when the humidity is high (such as rainy weather, etc.).

- When foreign bodies (such as mud, etc.) adhere to the camera or its peripheral area.

- When sunlight or headlights directly strike the camera lens.

- When a CCD camera is connected, smearing* may occur. This phenomenon is peculiar to CCD cameras.

* Smear phenomenon:

A phenomenon which occurs when a high-intensity spot (such as a reflection of the sunlight on a car body) is shot by the camera. The picture below is an example of ’vertical smear’ common to CCD cameras.

Error between the screen and the actual road surface

In the following conditions, errors are produced between the screen guidance and the actual road surface. (The illustrations represent a case when the camera is installed in the standard position.)

When there is a steep upward slope behind the car

(example)

<Screen>

In the case of a downward slope behind the car, the distance guides are displayed farther from the rear bumper than the actual distance.

If there is an obstacle on the downward slope, it seems closer than its actual position.

Also, an error may occur between the guidance and the actual path of the car on the road surface.

The distance guidance mark represents the distance to a flat road surface. Therefore in the case of an upward slope behind the car, the distance guides are displayed closer to the rear bumper than the actual distance. For example, if there is an obstacle on the upward slope, it may appear farther away than its actual position.

About DVDs

Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the digital data is recorded. The data is represented as microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more data in less space.

CDs

With this function, a single movie includes various story lines.

You can select different story lines to view various versions of the same movie.

Installation and Connections

Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the following and pages 7 to 12 of this manual thoroughly for proper use.

Warning

MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.

Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.

(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE

NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.

Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts.

DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN

SURROUNDING OBJECTS.

Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, shift lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.

DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.

Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING

HOLES.

When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.

DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR STEERING

SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.

Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS SCREWS OUT OF THE

REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER

VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL OR

SHIFT LEVER.

Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement etc. and results in serious accident.

IMPORTANT

Please record the serial number of your unit in the space provided below and keep it as a permanent record. The serial number plate is located on the bottom of the unit.

Caution

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS.

The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this product to have the work done.

USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM

SECURELY.

Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or product failure.

ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR

PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.

Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire’s insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR DUST.

Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.

Precautions

• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before installing your X009E. This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.

• Be sure to connect the colour coded leads according to the diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to malfunction or damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.

• When making connections to the vehicle’s electrical system, be aware of the factory installed components (e.g. on-board computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for this unit. When connecting the X009E to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the X009E has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit and/ or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer.

• The X009E uses female RCA-type jacks for connection to other units (e.g. amplifier) having RCA connectors. You may need an adaptor to connect other units. If so, please contact your authorized Alpine dealer for assistance.

• Be sure to connect the speaker (–) leads to the speaker (–) terminal. Never connect left and right channel speaker cables to each other or to the vehicle body.

• The Display must be completely retracted in the casing when installing. If it is not, problems may occur.

• When installing in automobiles, make sure the Display can open/ close without coming in contact with the gear shift.

1 Warnings and Safety information

The navigation system helps you find your way to your destination with a connected GPS receiver. The software does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you.

It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle, we recommend that you operate your software before you start your journey. Plan the route before your departure and stop if you need to change the route.

You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you deviate from the recommended route, your software changes the instructions accordingly.


6

5/9/2014 14:22:23


2 Getting started

When using the navigation software for the first time, an initial setup process starts automatically. Do as follows:

1. Select the written language of the application interface. Later you

can change it in Regional settings (page 104).

2. Read the End User Licence Agreement. Tap continue.

to

3. The Configuration wizard starts. Tap continue.

to

4. Select the language and speaker used for voice guidance messages.

Later you can change it in Sound and Warnings settings (page 104).

5. If needed, modify the time format and unit settings. Later you can

change them in Regional settings (page 104).

7

5/9/2014 14:22:23

6. If needed, modify the default route planning options. Later you can

change them in Route settings (page 96).


7. The initial setup is now complete. The Configuration wizard can be

restarted later from the Settings menu (page 89).

After the initial setup, the Map screen appears and you can start using the software.

2.1 Buttons and other controls on the screen

When you are using the software, you usually tap buttons on the touch screen.

You only need to confirm selections or changes if the application needs to restart, it needs to perform a major reconfiguration, or you are about to lose some of your data or settings. Otherwise, the software saves your selections and applies the new settings without confirmation as soon as you use the controls.

2.2 Map screen

2.2.1 Navigating on the map

The Map screen is the most frequently used screen of the software.

It shows the current position (the Vehimarker, a blue arrow by default), the recommended route (an orange line), and the surrounding map area.

12

5/9/2014 14:22:23

The application starts with a full screen map. Tap to reduce the map size to half and allow information from your Alpine X009E audio system to appear on the other half. You can decide which side of the map is the navigation. Simply tap the audio part and drag it to the other side of the screen.

When there is no GPS position, the Vehimarker is transparent. It shows your last known position.

You see coloured dots circling around a satellite symbol in the top left corner. The more green dots you see, the closer you are to get the valid

GPS position.

When GPS position is available, the Vehimarker is displayed in full colour, now showing your current position.

There are screen buttons and data fields on the screen to help you navigate. During navigation, the screen shows route information.

Two data fields are displayed on the left.


The data fields are different when you are navigating an active route and when you have no specified destination (the orange line is not displayed).

Default data fields when cruising without a destination (tap any of the fields to change its value):

Field Description

13

5/9/2014 14:22:23


Shows your current speed given by the GPS receiver.

Shows the speed limit of the current road if the map contains it.

Default data fields when navigating a route (tap any of the fields to change its value):

Field Description

Shows the distance you need to travel on the route before reaching your final destination.

Shows the time needed to reach the final destination of the route based on information available for the remaining segments of the route.

If your device is capable of receiving live traffic information, the calculation takes into account traffic delays affecting your route if they are received.

However, this calculation is rarely accurate.

Historical traffic data can also be taken into account if data is available.

There are three map view modes. Tap the button below the data fields to change the view:





: 3D perspective view rotated in your direction of travel.

: 2D top-down view facing North.

 : 2D top-down view rotated in your direction of travel.

14

5/9/2014 14:22:23


2.2.2 Position markers

2.2.2.1 Vehimarker and Lock-on-Road

When your GPS position is available, the software marks your current position with the Vehimarker. By default, this marker is a blue arrow, but you can change this icon in Settings.

When on-road navigation is selected, the Vehimarker may not show your exact GPS position and heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to suppress GPS position errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road.

If you select off-road navigation: The Vehimarker is at your exact GPS position. The direction of the icon shows your current heading.

2.2.2.2 Selected map location (Cursor) and selected map object

You can mark a map location in the following ways:

 Tap the map when navigating,

 Tap the map when you are asked to confirm the destination at the end of a search, or



Tap the map in Find on Map (page 58)

When a map location is selected, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the map. The Cursor is displayed with a radiating red dot ( make it visible at all zoom levels.

) to

The location of the Cursor can be used as the destination of the route, a new alert point, you can search for Places around it, or you can save this location as one of your Favourite destinations.

You can also select some of the objects on the map. If you tap the map at the icon of a Place of Interest or an alert point, the object will be selected

(you see a red circling border around the object), and you can get information about this object or use it as a route point.

15

5/9/2014 14:22:23

2.2.3 Objects on the map

2.2.3.1 Streets and roads

The software shows the streets in a way that is similar to how the paper road maps show them. Their width and colours correspond to their importance: you can easily tell a motorway from a small street.

2.2.3.2 Turn preview and Next street

When navigating a route, the top section of the Map screen shows information about the next route event (manoeuvre) and the next street or the next city/town.


There is a field in the top left corner that displays the next manoeuvre. Both the type of the event (turn, roundabout, exiting motorway, etc.) and its distance from the current position are displayed.

Most of these icons are very intuitive. The following table lists some of the frequently shown route events.

Icon Description

Turn left.

Turn right.

Turn back.

Bear right.

Turn sharp left.

Keep left.

16

5/9/2014 14:22:23


Continue straight in the intersection.

Go left on the roundabout, 3rd exit.

Enter motorway.

Exit motorway.

Board ferry.

Leave ferry.

Approaching a waypoint.

Approaching the destination.

These fields also act as buttons:

 Tap the Turn preview field and the voice guidance will repeat the latest instruction with updated distance information.

 Tap the Next street field to open the Itinerary.

2.2.3.3 Lane information and Signposts

When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the recommended route. If lane information is available in the map data, the software displays the lanes and their directions using small arrows at the top of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the lanes you need to take.

Where additional information is available, signposts substitute arrows.

Signposts are displayed at the top of the map. The colour and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you can see above road or by the roadside. They show the available destinations and the number of the road the lane leads to.

All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no recommended route). When navigating a route, only the signpost that points to the lane(s) to be taken is displayed in vivid colours; all others are darker.

If you want to hide the currently displayed signposts, tap any of them and the normal Map screen returns until new signpost information is received.

17

5/9/2014 14:22:23

This feature can be turned off in Visual Guidance settings.

2.2.3.4 Junction view

If you are approaching a motorway exit or a complex intersection and the needed information exists, the map is replaced with a 3D view of the junction. The lanes you need to take are displayed with arrows. Signposts can also be present if information is available.

If you want to hide the currently displayed junction, tap the picture and the

Map screen returns.

This feature can be turned off in Visual Guidance settings.

2.2.3.5 Motorway exit services

You may need a petrol station or a restaurant during your journey. This feature displays a new button on the map when you are driving on motorways.


Tap this button to open a panel with the details of the next few exits or service stations.

18

5/9/2014 14:22:23


Tap any of them to display it on the map and add it as a waypoint to your route if needed.

If you want to display other types of Places for the exits, you can change

the icons in Visual Guidance settings (page 102).

2.2.3.6 3D object types

Your software supports the following 3D object types:

Type Description

3D terrain 3D terrain map data shows changes in terrain, elevations or depressions in the land when you view the map in 2D, and use it to plot the route map in 3D when you navigate. Hills and mountains are shown in the background of the 3D map, and illustrated by colour and shading on the 2D map.

Elevated roads

Complex intersections and vertically isolated roads (such as overpasses or bridges) are displayed in 3D.

3D landmarks

Landmarks are 3D artistic or block representations of prominent or well-known objects.

3D buildings 3D block representation of full city building data containing actual building size and position on the map.

2.2.3.7 Elements of the active route

Your software shows the route in the following way:

Symbol

Name Description

19

5/9/2014 14:22:23


Current GPS position and Start point

Your current position displayed on the map. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road.

Normally if GPS position is available, the route starts from the current position. If there is no valid GPS position, your software uses the last known position as the start point.

Waypoint

(intermediate destination)

An intermediate destination of the route before reaching the final destination.

Destination (end point) The final destination of the route.

Route colour

Streets and roads that are excluded from the navigation

Streets and roads that are affected by traffic events

The route always stands out with its colour on the map, both in daytime and in night colour mode.

You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain road types (page

96). However, when your software

cannot avoid such roads, the route will include them and it will show them in a colour that is different from the route colour.

Road segments may be affected by traffic events received. These streets and roads are displayed in an alternate colour, and small symbols displayed along the route show the type of the traffic event.

2.2.3.8 Traffic events

Road segments affected by traffic events are displayed with an alternate colour on the map, and small symbols above the road show the nature of the event:

20

5/9/2014 14:22:23

3 On-road navigation

When first started, Alpine X009E calculates routes using the road network of the high quality vector maps provided with the product.

You can set up your route in different ways:

 If you need a route for immediate navigation, you can select the destination and start navigating to it right away (normal navigation).

 You can also plan a route independently of your current GPS position or even without GPS reception (to achieve this, you need to turn off the GPS receiver and set a new starting point in Route / Edit

Route by tapping the flag icon at the current position).

You can plan routes with multiple destinations. Select the first destination.

Then select a second destination and add it to your route to create a multipoint route. You can add as many destinations to your route as you like.

You can also use Alpine X009E for off-road navigation. For details, see

page 80.

3.1 Selecting the destination of a route

The software offers you several ways of choosing your destination:

 Enter a full address or a part of an address, for example a street name without a house number or the names of two intersecting

streets (page 30).



Enter an address with postal code (page 40). This way you do not

need to select the name of the city/town and the search for street names might be faster as well.



Use a built-in Place of Interest as your destination (page 44).



Use the free form search to find an address or Place (page 57).

3.1.1.4 Selecting a city/town centre as the destination

The city/town centre is not the geometric centre of the city/town but an arbitrary point the map creators have chosen. In towns and villages, it is usually the most important intersection; in larger cities, it is one of the important intersections.

3.1.1.6 Tips on entering addresses quickly

 When you are entering the name of a city/town or a street:

 Only those letters are offered on the keyboard that appear in possible search results. All other characters are greyed out.

 As you are typing, the most likely result is always displayed in the input field. If the guess is correct, tap to select it.

 After entering a couple of letters, tap list the items that contain the specified letters.

 You can speed up finding an intersection:

to

 Search first for the street with a less common or less usual name; fewer letters are enough to find it.

 If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You can then find the second one faster.

 You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If the same word appears in several names, for example in the name of streets, roads and avenues, you can obtain the result faster if you enter the first letter of the street type: For example, enter 'PI A' to obtain Pine

Avenue and skip all Pine Streets and Pickwick Roads.

 You can also search in postal codes. As postal codes consist of only a few characters, this is usually faster than entering the name of the city/town.

73

5/9/2014 14:22:25

 - The software includes toll roads (pay roads where there is a per-use charge) in the routes by default. If you disable toll roads, your software plans the best toll-free route.

 - The software includes ferries in a planned route by default. However, a map does not necessarily contain information about the accessibility of temporary ferries. You might also need to pay a fare on ferries.

 - The software excludes unpaved roads by default: unpaved roads can be in a bad condition and usually you cannot reach the speed limit on them.

3. Tap to confirm the changes. The software recalculates the route. The orange line now shows the new recommended route.

4 Off-road navigation

When first started, Alpine X009E calculates routes using the road network of the high quality vector maps provided with the product.

You can switch the application to off-road mode in Navigation settings in one of the following ways:

 From the Navigation menu, tap

.

, and then

 From the Map screen, tap , and then .

Most of the procedures described for on-road navigation also apply to offroad navigation. However, there are some that are not available in this navigation mode (for example you cannot open the itinerary as you have no manoeuvres just route points and straight lines between them).

4.1 Selecting the destination of the route

Selecting the start point or a destination (waypoint or final destination) is the same as described at on-road navigation. The only difference is that route points are linked to form a route with straight lines regardless of the road network and traffic regulations.

4.2 Navigating in off-road mode

The real difference between the on-road and off-road modes is the navigation itself. When you are on the Map screen with an off-road route:

 your position and heading is not aligned with the nearest road and

 there is no turn by turn navigation just a recommended direction.

You see a straight line drawn between your current position and the next destination to reach. The Turn Preview field in the top left corner shows an arrow with your bearing and the distance of the next destination.

80

5/9/2014 14:22:25

When you reach a waypoint, the straight line will show the direction to the next destination.

When you reach the final destination, navigation ends.

5 Reference Guide

On the following pages you will find the description of the different concepts and menu screens of the software.

5.1 Concepts

5.1.1 Smart Zoom

Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:

 While following a route: when approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view angle to let you easily recognise your manoeuvre at the next junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be flat so you can see the road in front of you.

 While driving without an active route: Smart Zoom will zoom in if you drive slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed.

5.1.2 Route calculation and recalculation

Your software calculates the route based on your preferences:

 Route planning methods:

 : Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually the best selection for fast and normal cars.

 : Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes. It can be practical for slow vehicles.

 : Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings.

Travel cost and CO

2

emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account.

82

5/9/2014 14:22:25


 : Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult manoeuvres. With this option, you can make your software to take, for example, the motorway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.

 Vehicle types:

When creating a new vehicle profile, select one of the below vehicle types.

 :

 Manoeuvre restrictions and directional constraints are taken into account when planning a route.

 Roads are used only if access for cars is allowed.

 Private roads and resident-only roads are used only if they are inevitable to reach the destination.

 Walkways are excluded from routes.





:

 All manoeuvres are available in intersections.

 Directional constraints are taken into account the way that opposite direction is allowed with a low speed.

 A private road is used only if the destination is there.


:


 Roads are used only if access for buses is allowed.

 Private roads, resident-only roads and walkways are excluded from routes.

 :


 Roads are used only if access for taxis is allowed.


83

5/9/2014 14:22:25


 Road types used or avoided in route calculation:











Whenever data exist, route calculation takes into account statistical traffic data for the given day of week and time of day.

Real-time Traffic events are also taken into account and sometimes greatly modify the route.

Your software automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed itinerary or if a newly received Traffic event concerns a part of the recommended route.

5.1.3 Green routing

Route calculation is not only about finding the quickest or shortest route.

For some of the vehicle types, you can also check the fuel consumption and

CO

emission when planning a route, and you can create cost effective routes with less effect on the environment.

In Route settings, you can edit the parameters of the selected vehicle. Enter the fuel consumption values and the price of the fuel. You can also select whether you want to see the difference between your route and the green route even if the selected routing method is not Green.

After the above parameters are set, select as route planning method to get a fast but also fuel efficient route. Note that travel cost and CO

emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, turns, curves and traffic conditions into account. Also, this routing is not meant to give you the "greenest" route of all. It is still important to travel quickly so the result is a fast route with low fuel consumption and CO

Tap the field with these details to switch the route to Green immediately.

5.1.4 Speed limit warning

Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments.

The software is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your region (ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all roads in the map. Speed warning can be finetuned in Sound and Warning settings.

You can set the relative speed above which the application initiates the warning.

The following warning types are available:

 Audio warning: you receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the given percentage.

 Visual warning: the current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it (for example: ).

You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.

5/9/2014 14:22:26


5.1.5 Traffic information in route planning

The recommended route is not always the same between two points.

Offline statistical traffic information (historical speed information or traffic patterns) can be taken into account in the route calculation based on the time of day and the day of week whenever suitable data exists. In addition, real-time traffic information can help you avoid current traffic events like temporary road closures or a traffic jam caused by an accident. Both functions are subject to data availability.

5.1.5.1 Historical traffic

If statistical traffic information is stored with the map data, the software can take them into account when planning a route. In normal cases, these statistics help you avoid usual traffic jams on the given day of week in the given hour but in some cases like on public holidays that fall on normal weekdays, they can be misleading. You can enable this feature in Traffic settings.

5.1.5.2 Real-time traffic information (TMC)

TMC (Traffic Message Channel) can provide you with the real-time status of the traffic. Route calculation can avoid road blocks or unexpected traffic jams caused by an accident.

TMC is a specific application of the FM Radio Data System (RDS) used for broadcasting real-time traffic and weather information.

Using traffic information is enabled by default in the software.

Note! TMC is not a global service. It may not be available in your country or region. Ask your local dealer for coverage details.

Your device contains the TMC receiver that is needed to receive Traffic events.

If public Traffic data is broadcast at your location, the software automatically takes into account the traffic events received. You do not need to set anything in the program. The receiver will automatically search the FM radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded information will immediately be used in route planning. When your software receives traffic information that may affect your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating the route, and navigation will continue with a new route that is optimal considering the most up-to-date traffic conditions.

To fine-tune this recalculation, you can set the minimum delay that can trigger a route recalculation, or you can instruct the software to have you confirm the new recommended route before it takes effect. You can do these in Traffic settings.

86

5/9/2014 14:22:26

A special icon ( ) is displayed on the Map screen to show you whether traffic events are received. The icon shows the status of the traffic receiver when there are no traffic events on your route, otherwise it shows the type of the next traffic event on your route.

Road segments affected by traffic events are displayed with an alternate colour on the map, and small symbols above the road show the nature of the event:

Tap to open the list of traffic even categories :

In the first column you can see the number of traffic events on your route.

The second column contains the full count of traffic events in the categories.

 announces the manoeuvre only.

You can also decide whether you want an announcement for distance manoeuvres or it is enough to receive the information when the turn is near.

Tap this button to set the verbosity of the voice instructions: how much they tell and how often they speak.

Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. The software is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your region (ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all roads in the map. This setting lets you decide whether you wish to receive visible and/or audible warnings.

Adjust the slider to set the relative speed above which the application initiates the warning.

The following warning types are available:

 Audio warning: you receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the given percentage.

 Visual warning: the current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it.

If you prefer to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time (normally it is shown only if your speed exceeds it), you can set it here.

Use this switch to enable or disable the TMC receiver that can receive real-time traffic information. The rest of the buttons below are all related to the TMC function and are available only if the receiver is enabled.

This setting determines how your software uses the received real-time traffic information in route calculation. When calculating a new route, or when recalculation becomes necessary based on the received Traffic events, your software avoids traffic events if it makes sense.

You can also set the minimum delay that triggers route recalculation, and you can instruct the application if you want to confirm every recalculation.

Tap this button to open the list of traffic event types, and select which events to take into account in route calculation.

5.3.4 Route settings

These settings determine how routes will be calculated.


You can set the type of vehicle you will use to navigate the route. Based upon this setting, some of the road types can be excluded from the route, or some of the restrictions may not be taken into account in route calculation.

You can edit the parameters of the selected vehicle profile, or you can even create new vehicle profiles if you tap More.

On-road navigation creates a turn by turn itinerary using the road network on the map. Switch to off-road navigation to navigate between destinations in a straight line.

The route calculation can be optimised for different situations and vehicle types by changing the planning method. See below for details.

96

5/9/2014 14:22:26


To let the route fit your needs, you can also set which road types are to be considered for or to be excluded from the route if possible.

Excluding a road type is a preference. It does not necessarily mean total prohibition. If your destination can only be accessed using some of the excluded road types, they will be used but only as much as necessary. In this case a warning icon will be shown on the Route screen, and the part of the route not matching your preference will be displayed in a different colour on the map.

In the list of road types you can see in how many segments and what total length of the road type is used in the current route.


You might need to avoid motorways when you are driving a slow car or you are towing another vehicle.

Charge roads are pay roads where you can purchase a pass or vignette to use the road for a longer period of time. They can be enabled or disabled separately from toll roads.

The software includes toll roads (pay roads where there is a per-use charge) in the routes by default. If you disable toll roads, your software plans the best toll-free route.

The software includes ferries in a planned route by default. However, a map does not necessarily contain information about the accessibility of temporary ferries. You might also need to pay a fare on ferries.

The software excludes unpaved roads by default: unpaved roads can be in a bad condition and usually you cannot reach the speed limit on them.

Vehicle profiles:

5/9/2014 14:22:26


Gives a short route to minimise the distance to travel.

It can be practical for slow vehicles. Searching for a short route regardless of the speed, this route type is rarely practical for normal vehicles.

Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel

consumption data given in Route settings (page 96).

 Tap the checkbox to show or hide the Place category.

 Tap the name of the Place category to open the list of its subcategories.

 Tap to save the current

Place visibility set or to load a previously saved one. Here you can also revert to the default visibility settings.

5.3.6 Visual guidance settings

Adjust how the software helps you navigate with different kinds of route related information on the Map screen.

The data fields in the corner of the Map screen can be customised. Tap this button and select the values you want to see. The values can be different when you navigate a route from when you are just cruising without a given destination. You can select general trip data like your current speed or the altitude, or route data related to your final destination or the next waypoint on your route.

You may need a petrol station or a restaurant during your journey. This feature displays a new button on the map when you are driving on motorways. Tap this button to open a panel with the details of the next few exits or service stations. Tap any of them to display it on the map and add it as a waypoint to your route if needed.

Select the service types displayed for the motorway exists. Choose from the POI categories.

102

5/9/2014 14:22:26


Whenever adequate information is available, lane information similar to the real ones on road signs above the road is displayed at the top of the map. You can turn this feature on or off.

If you are approaching a motorway exit or a complex intersection and the needed information exists, the map is replaced with a 3D view of the junction. You can turn this feature on or let the map be displayed for the whole route.

When entering tunnels, the surface roads and buildings can be disturbing. This feature shows a generic picture of a tunnel instead of the map. A topdown overview of the tunnel and remaining distance are also displayed.

Turn on the route progress bar to see your route as a straight line on the right side of the map. The blue arrow represents your current position and moves up as you travel. Waypoints and Traffic events are also displayed on the line.

When you slow down while driving on a motorway, there is a chance that you are in a traffic jam so the software offers you a detour using the next exit. The message shows you distance of the exit and the difference in distance and estimated time compared to the original route. You can choose from one of the following options:

 Tap Dismiss or just ignore the message if you want to keep the original route.

 Tap Preview to see the overview of the original route and the detour to make the decision. You can accept the detour as offered or increase the bypassed motorway segment before accepting.

 Turn to the suggested new direction and the route will be automatically recalculated.

103

5/9/2014 14:22:26


Similar to the above possibility, alternative routes can be suggested when driving on normal roads. The software will select a different turn in the upcoming intersection and offers you a different route for the next section of the route.

Your options are the similar as above but you cannot modify the offered detour.

Parking at the destination may not be easy in city areas. As you approach the destination, the software can offer parking category Places near your destination. Tap the "P" button to open a top-down map with the destination and the offered parking

Places. Select one and modify the route accordingly.

If you leave the recommended route and suddenly exit the motorway, the application offers different alternatives near the exit like petrol stations or restaurants. Also, if there are avoidable parts of the original route ahead (like a tunnel, a toll road or a ferry), you will find them in the list in case you want to bypass them with the help of the software.

When enabled, the device will switch back from split screen or from Audio screen to full screen map mode during voice guidance announcements. After the voice instruction the previous screen returns.

5.3.7 Regional settings

These settings allow you to customise the application for your local language, measurement units, time and date settings and formats, as well as to choose the time zone.


This button displays the current written language of the user interface. By tapping the button, you can select a new language from the list of available languages. The application will restart if you change this setting; you are asked to confirm this.

104

5/9/2014 14:22:26

You can set the distance units to be used by the program. Your software may not support all the listed units in some voice guidance languages.

Select between 12 and 24 hours time display and the various international date display formats.

You can also set other country specific units used to display different values in the application.

By default, time zone is taken from the map information and adjusted by your current location.

Here you can set time zone and daylight saving manually.

5.3.8 Trip monitor settings

Trip logs contain useful information about your trips. Trip logs can be saved manually when you reach your destination or you can turn on the automatic saving here. You can access these logs in the Trip monitor. Trip monitor is available from the More menu.

This is not a button. This line shows the current size of the trip database, the sum of all trip and track logs saved.

Trip monitor can record statistical data of your trips. If you need these logs later, you can let the application save them automatically for you.

Track logs, the sequence of the positions given by the

GPS receiver, can be saved together with trip logs.

They can later be displayed on the map. You can let the application save the track log whenever it saves a trip.


5.4 Trip monitor

If you save your trip logs when you arrive at some of your destinations or let the application automatically save the trip logs for you, those logs are all

105

5/9/2014 14:22:26

listed here. Tap one of the trips to see the trip statistics, speed and elevation profile.

If track log has also been saved, you can display it on the map with the selected colour.

The Trip monitor can also be accessed from the Information menu.

6 Glossary

2D/3D GPS reception

The GPS receiver uses satellite signals to calculate its (your) position and needs at least four signals to give a three-dimensional position, including elevation. Because the satellites are moving and because objects can block the signals, your GPS device might not receive four signals. If three satellites are available, the receiver can calculate the horizontal GPS position but the accuracy is lower and the GPS device does not give you elevation data: only 2D reception is possible.

Active route

The currently navigated route. Whenever the destination is set, the route is active until you delete it or you reach your destination. See also: Route.

City Centre

The city/town centre is not the geometric centre of the city/town but an arbitrary point the map creators have chosen. In towns and villages, it is usually the most important intersection; in larger cities, it is one of the important intersections.

GPS accuracy

Several factors have impact on the deviation between your real position and the one given by the GPS device. For example, signal delay in the ionosphere or reflecting objects near the GPS device have a different and varying impact on how accurately the GPS device can calculate your position.

Map

The software works with digital maps which are not simply the computerised versions of traditional paper maps. Similarly to the paper road maps, the 2D mode of digital maps show you streets, roads, and elevation is also shown by colours.

In 3D mode, you can see the altitude differences, for example valleys and mountains, elevated roads, and in selected cities 3D landmarks and 3D buildings are also displayed.

107

5/9/2014 14:22:26

You can use digital maps interactively: you can zoom in and out (increase or decrease the scale), you can tilt them up and down, and rotate them left and right. In GPS-supported navigation, digital maps facilitate route planning.

North-up map orientation

In North-up mode the map is rotated so its top always faces North. This is the orientation for example in Find on Map.

Route

A sequence of route events, i.e. manoeuvres (for example, turns and roundabouts) to reach the destination. The route contains one start point and one or more destinations. The start point is the current (or last known) position by default. If you need to see a future route, the start point can be replaced with any other given point.

Heading-up map orientation

In this mode the map is rotated so its top always points in the current driving direction. This is the default orientation in 3D map view mode.

Vehimarker

The current position is shown with a blue arrow on the map by default. The direction of the blue arrow shows the current heading. This position marker can be replaced with different 3D vehicle symbols. You can even specify different Vehimarkers for different route types (depending on which vehicle type is selected for route calculation).
