1 Warnings and safety information
The navigation system helps you find your way to your destination with the built-in GPS receiver. Alpine
Navigation System does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you.
It is important to look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle, we
recommend that you plan and review your route before you start your journey. Plan the route before your
departure and stop if you need to change the route.
You must follow the traffic rules. If you deviate from the planned route, Alpine Navigation System changes
the instructions accordingly.
For more information, see the end-user license agreement (page 82).

5

2 Getting started
Alpine Navigation System is optimized for in-car use. You can use it easily by tapping the screen buttons
and the map with your fingertips.

Easy map updates
Update your maps regularly as road networks are continuously evolving all over the world. About 15% of
the roads are changed each year, new ones are built, directions are altered, new speed limits are set, and
many other changes are made.
It is easy to keep the navigation system up-to-date. Go to alpine.naviextras.com to find map updates and
extra content for your navigation system. Use the Toolbox application with your product connected, and
download the new map data.
To update your navigation software and its maps, you need a PC with Internet access and a USB storage
device. For instructions, see:Page 58

Latest Map Guarantee
When you start using the product, you have 30 days to download the latest available map free of charge.

Free Map updates
When you start using the product, you can download new maps in the next 1 year.

2.3.1 Streets and roads
Alpine Navigation System shows the streets similarly to paper road maps. Their width and colors
correspond to their importance; you can easily tell a freeway from a small street.

15

2.3.2 GPS position markers
When your GPS position is available, Alpine Navigation System marks your current position. By default,
this marker is a blue arrow. The dot near the arrow shows the GPS position as perceived by the GPS
receiver.
When on-road navigation is selected, the current position marker may not show your exact GPS position
and heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to eliminate GPS position errors, and the
direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road.
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
Current GPS position
and starting point

Description
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)
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 70). 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.

16

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.
A smaller icon shows the type of the second next maneuver if it is near the first one. Otherwise, only the
next maneuver is displayed.

2.3.5 Maneuver icons
During navigation the next maneuver is displayed in the top left corner. Most of the maneuver icons are
intuitive. The following table lists some of the frequently shown route events:

2.3.6 Lane information and signposts
When navigating on multi-lane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the
planned route. If lane information is available in the map data, Alpine Navigation System displays the
lanes and their directions using small arrows at the bottom of the map. Highlighted arrows represent the
lanes and the direction you need to take.
Where additional information is available, arrows are replaced by signposts. Signposts are displayed at
the top of the map. The color and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you can see above
roads or by roadsides. They show the available destinations and the road numbers.
All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no planned route). During navigation only the
signpost that points to the lane(s) to be taken is highlighted; all the others are darker.
If you want to hide the currently displayed signposts, tap any of them and the normal Navigation view
returns until new signpost information is received.

You can modify the signpost settings in

3.8 Off-road navigation
When first started, Alpine Navigation System calculates routes using the road network of the maps
provided with the product. If you want to disregard roads during navigation, you can switch to off-road
mode, for example when driving in a desert.

Tap

, and

and select

.

.

Most of the procedures described for on-road navigation also apply to off-road navigation. However, there
are some that are not available in this navigation mode. For example:


You cannot open the itinerary as you have no maneuvers just route points and straight lines
between them.



There are no route alternatives and route planning method.



Vehicle settings are disabled.

3.8.2 Selecting the destination in off-road mode
Selecting a destination (waypoint or final destination) is the same as described in the previous sections.
The only difference is that route points are linked to form a route with straight lines regardless of the road
network and traffic regulations.

57

3.8.3 Navigating in off-road mode
The real difference between on-road and off-road modes is the navigation itself. When you are on the
Navigation view with an off-road route:


Your position and heading is not aligned to the nearest road.



There is no turn-by-turn navigation, just a recommended direction.

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

When you reach the final destination, the navigation ends.
If you do not want to use off-road navigation, switch back to on-road navigation by tapping

4 Reference guide
The following sections describe the different concepts and menu screens of Alpine Navigation System.

4.1 Concepts
The following sections describe and explain navigation-related concepts.

4.1.1 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.
Several factors have an 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.

4.1.2 Natural and TTS voices
Natural voices are the traditional type of voice instructions. Every phrase that occurs in voice guidance
messages is recorded in a studio with a real person. The advantage of pre-recorded voice is that it
sounds really natural, but the range of instructions that can be given this way is limited. Location-specific
information such as street names cannot be announced.
TTS technology provides a machine-generated way to give voice instructions. The advantage of TTS is
that it can announce street names, traffic events, route summary, and traffic rules.

4.1.3 Road safety cameras and other proximity Alert Points
There is a special proximity warning for road safety cameras (like speed or red light cameras) and other
proximity Alert Points (like schools or railroad crossings). These Alert Points are not part of Alpine
Navigation System. You can download Alert points from alpine.naviextras.com or you can upload points
in a specific text file if needed.
There is a proximity warning for special locations such as schools or railroad crossings. You can add your
own Alert Points. See page 54.
The application can warn you when you approach road safety cameras like speed cameras or dangerous
areas like school zones or railroad crossings. You can set up the different alert types individually in the
Warnings settings, see page 75.
The following warning types are available:

60



Audio warning: beeps are played (if the voice guidance language that you selected is a natural
voice) or the type of the alert can be announced (TTS voice) while you are approaching one of
these points, and an extra alert warns you if you exceed the given speed limit while approaching.



Visual warning: the type of the Alert Point, its distance and the related speed limit appear on the
Navigation view while you are approaching one of these locations.

For some of the Alert Points, either the enforced or expected speed limit is available. For these points, the
audio alert can be different if you are below or above the given speed limit.


Only when speeding: The audio alert is only played when you exceed the given speed limit.



When approaching: The audio alert is always played when approaching one of these Alert Points.
In order to draw your attention, the alert is different when you exceed the speed limit.

The warning for road safety cameras is usually disabled when you are in a country where road
Note! safety camera warnings are prohibited. Make sure that using this feature is legal in the country
where you intend to operate. Use it on your own responsibility.

4.1.4 Route calculation and recalculation
A route is a sequence of route events, that is, maneuvers (for example, turns and traffic circles) to reach
the destination. The route contains one starting point and one or more destinations. The starting point is
the current (or last known) position by default. If you need to see a future route, the starting point can be
replaced with any other given point. See page 47.
Once the destination has been selected, Alpine Navigation System calculates the route based on your
preferences. These preferences are the route planning method, the vehicle type, and the road types used
or avoided when calculating the route. For detailed information on all the preferences, see Route
preferences settings, page 70.
Real-time traffic events are also taken into account, which sometimes greatly modify the route. See page
62.
Alpine Navigation System automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed itinerary.
If traffic services are enabled, Alpine Navigation System considers real-time dynamic traffic information in
route calculation and may also recalculate the route if the traffic situation changes during navigation.
Intelligent data (captured historical speed information based on probe data) is used for optimal routing
depending on the day of the week and time of day. Route segments where traffic flow is typically slow at
the given time of day and day of the week are avoided if a suitable alternative can be found. When
calculating the optimal route, the data relevant for the time of the estimated arrival of the vehicle at the
given route point is taken into account. As a result, Alpine Navigation System may suggest a different
route during the weekday rush hours, especially in major cities with frequent traffic jams. See page 62.

4.1.5 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides the following features:


While following a route: When approaching a turn, it zooms in and raises the view angle to let
you easily recognize your next maneuver. If the next turn is at a distance, it zooms out and lowers
the view angle to be flat so you can see the road in front of you.

61



While driving without a planned route: Smart Zoom zooms in if you drive slowly and zooms out
when you drive at a high speed.

4.1.6 Speed limit warning
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. Alpine Navigation System is
able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your region, or
may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.
The maximum speed set in the vehicle profile (page 70) is also used for this warning. Alpine Navigation
System alerts you if you exceed the pre-set value even if the legal speed limit is higher.
Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Warnings. See page 75.
You can also set the relative speed tolerance 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.

4.1.7 Historical traffic
If statistical traffic information is stored with the map data, Alpine Navigation System 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 vacations that fall on normal
weekdays, they can be misleading. You can enable or disable this feature in Traffic settings. See page
80.

4.1.8 Real-time traffic
Real-time traffic information can provide you with the current status of the traffic. Route calculation can
avoid road blocks or unexpected traffic jams caused by an accident.
The following data sources are available:


Traffic Message Channel (TMC):
62

TMC is a specific application of the FM Radio Data System (RDS) used for broadcasting real-time
traffic and weather information.
If public Traffic data is broadcast at your location, Alpine Navigation System automatically
searches the FM radio stations for TMC data, and the decoded information is immediately used in
route planning.
Note!

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

The application automatically takes account of the traffic events received. You do not need to set
anything in Alpine Navigation System.
When Alpine Navigation System receives traffic information that may affect your route, it warns you that it
is recalculating the route. The navigation continues with a new optimal route considering the most up-todate traffic conditions.
For information on traffic icons, see page 21.
To fine-tune this service, you have the following options in Traffic settings (page 80):


Set the minimum amount of time that you think is worth saving at the cost of a detour.



Instruct Alpine Navigation System to have you confirm the new planned route before it takes effect.
If there are traffic events on the planned route that the application has not bypassed, the

Note!
icon opens the list of significant traffic events to let you quickly check them.

4.1.9 Intelligent navigation
With the help of intelligent navigation, the planned route can adapt to traffic and other changes during
navigation. The following sections describe these features.

4.1.9.1 Congestion detour on highways
Alpine Navigation System may offer a detour when you slow down on a highway due to a traffic jam. The
Potential congestion detour window appears and shows the length and duration of the detour.

Navigation System is searching for parking places in the Places of Interest.

4.1.9.4 Hints upon detour
If you leave the planned route by exiting a freeway, Alpine Navigation System tries to guess the reason
for making a detour. The Reason for detour window appears and shows available gas stations,
restaurants or other Places around the current position. Also, if there are avoidable parts of the original
route ahead (like a tunnel, a toll road or a ferry), you can find them in the list, in case you want to bypass
them.

4.3.1.2 Route Planning Method types
You can select from the following route planning method types:

Button

Description
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.
Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult maneuvers. With this option, you
can make Alpine Navigation System take, for example, the freeway instead of a
series of smaller roads or streets.
Gives a short route to minimize the travel distance. It can be optimal for slow
vehicles. Searching for a short route regardless of the speed, this route type is
rarely optimal for normal vehicles.
Gives a quick but fuel-efficient route based on the fuel consumption data. Travel
cost and CO2 emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take
elevations, curves and traffic conditions into consideration.
Combines the benefits of Fast and Short. Alpine Navigation System calculates as if
it were calculating the Fast route, but it takes other roads as well to save fuel.

Depending on the vehicle type, some methods may not be available.

4.3.1.4 Road types
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.
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 are used only as much as necessary.
In this case, a warning icon is shown on the Route information screen, and the part of the route not
matching your preference is displayed in a different color on the map.
Some road types are only available in certain regions.
The following road types are available:

Button

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

72

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.
Per-use toll roads are pay roads where there is a per-use charge in the routes by
default. If you disable toll roads, Alpine Navigation System plans the best toll-free
route.
Alpine Navigation System 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.
Car shuttle trains are used to transports vehicles for a relatively short distance and
they usually connect places that are not easily accessible on a road, for example, in
Switzerland.
Carpool or HOV lanes can be used if a given number of passengers is traveling in
the vehicle. Check whether you are allowed to use carpool lanes before enabling
this road type.
Alpine Navigation System excludes unpaved roads by default. Unpaved roads can
be in a bad condition and you usually cannot reach the speed limit on them.
4WD tracks are dirt roads of very poor condition. They can only be driven by 4WD
vehicles. Alpine Navigation System excludes 4WD tracks by default.

4.3.2 Sound

Set the verbosity of the voice instructions, that is how much they tell and how often
they speak.


Minimal: the voice instruction is given once right before the next maneuver.



Medium: the voice instruction is given when approaching the next maneuver
and it is repeated right before the maneuver.



Verbose: the voice instruction is given first relatively far from the next
maneuver, it is repeated when approaching the next turn, and it is repeated
again right before the actual maneuver.

4.3.3 Warnings
You can enable and modify the following settings:

Button

Description
Alpine Navigation System is able to warn you if you exceed the current speed limit.
This information may not be available in your region, or may not be fully correct for
all roads on the map.
The maximum speed set in the vehicle profile is also used for this warning. Alpine
Navigation System alerts you if you exceed the pre-set value even if the legal speed
limit is higher.
This setting lets you decide whether you wish to receive visible and/or audible
warnings.
The following warning types are available:


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



Audio and Visual warning: besides the current speed limit being shown on
the map, you also receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit
with the set percentage.

If you prefer to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time (normally, it is shown
only if you exceed the limit), you can set it here.
You can also set the relative speed above which the application initiates the
warning by adjusting a slider. The value can be different within and outside towns.

75

Tap it to receive a warning when approaching a road safety camera or other Alert
Points like school zones or railroad crossings. You must make sure that using this
feature is legal in the country where you intend to use it.
You can set the warning type for the different Alert Point categories (alert types)
individually. The following warning types are available:


Visual warning: the type of the Alert Point, its distance, and the related speed
limit appear on the Navigation view while you are approaching one of these
locations.



Audio and Visual warning: besides the visual alert, beeps are played (when
using a natural voice) or the type of the alert is announced (in case of a TTS
voice) while you are approaching one of these points, and an extra alert
warns you if you exceed the given speed limit while approaching.

For some of the Alert Points, the enforced or expected speed limit is available. For
these points, the audio alert can be different if you are below or above the given
speed limit.


Only when speeding: The audio warning is only played when you exceed the
given speed limit.



When approaching: The audio warning is always played when approaching
one of these Alert Points. In order to draw your attention, the audio alert is

4.3.5 Regional
You can modify the following settings:

Button

Description
It displays the current written language of the user interface. Tap it to select a new
language from the list of available languages. The application restarts after you
change this setting and confirm it.

78

It shows the current voice guidance profile. Tap it to select a new profile from the list
of available languages and speakers. Tap any of these to hear a sample voice
prompt. Just tap

when you have selected the new spoken language.

Different voice profiles are capable of different levels of service:


Natural Voice (street names not announced): These pre-recorded sounds
can only tell you basic information about turns and distances.



TTS Voice (street names announced): These computed voices can read out
complex instructions, street names or system messages.



TTS Voice with a microphone icon: Besides the above-mentioned profiles, it
can also be used for voice recognition.

You can set the measurement units and time/date format to be used. Alpine
Navigation System may not support all the listed units in some voice guidance
languages.
By default, the time zone is taken from the map information and adjusted by your
current location. Here you can manually set the time zone and the daylight saving
time.

4.3.6 Display
You can modify the following settings:

Button

Function
When animation is turned on, buttons on menus and keyboard screens, and screen
transitions are animated.
Select the style and colors of the application used in daytime mode.
Select the style and colors of the application used in night mode. It is recommended
to use darker colors at night to avoid distraction during driving in the dark.

79

4.3.7 Traffic
You can modify the following settings:

Button

Function
Enable or disable the Traffic reception that can receive real-time traffic information.
The rest of the buttons below are all related to the Traffic function and are available
only if the receiver is enabled.
Tap it if you want to use online traffic information to avoid road blocks or
unexpected traffic jams.
If you want to see traffic events (for example closures, accidents, lane restrictions)
on the map, you can choose to show the events with a different color or to display
an icon too. This feature can also be disabled.
Receive information about normal traffic as well, not just special conditions or
events.
Enable or disable historical traffic data and traffic patterns. This locally stored
information can be very useful in normal circumstances but for example on public
vacations it may be better to turn it off in order not to take account of normal
weekday traffic jams.
Set the minimum amount of time that you think is worth saving at the cost of making
a detour.
For example, in the figure below, the orange route shows a traffic event that causes
a 30-minute delay. The blue route is a detour that is 15 minutes longer than the
original route (not counting the traffic jam). If you set the Offer detour feature to 10
minutes, Alpine Navigation System recalculates the route because it saves 15
minutes, which is more than the 10 minutes you set. If you set it to 20 minutes, the
original route is kept because the detour would save you only 15 minutes.

Calculations are based on information received about traffic events.
Enable or disable the manual confirmation of every recalculation due to traffic
events.

80

4.3.8 Trip Monitor
Trip logs contain useful information about your recorded trips. You can enable and modify the following
settings:

Button

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

4.3.9 User Profiles
