Navigation* - operation

Updated 08/06/2023

Basic operation of Sensus Navigation and examples of use.

The navigation system can be operated from the centre console, steering wheel buttons, remote control * and partly with voice recognition. For basic operation of the system, see section Audio and media - operating the system in the owner's manual.

Activate Sensus Navigation

Press the NAV button in the centre console.

After a short time a map of the current geographic area is shown where the car is symbolised by a blue triangle.

Warning

Observe the following.

Direct all your attention to the road and make sure that all your concentration is on driving.
Follow applicable traffic legislation and drive with good judgment.
Due to weather conditions or time of year affecting the road conditions, some recommendations may be less reliable.

The navigation system cannot be deactivated, but instead operates in the background - it is not deactivated until the remote control key is removed from the ignition switch.

Note

The navigation system is also available when the engine is switched off. When the battery level gets too low the system switches off.

Menus

In addition to the system's normal source menu and shortcut menu there is a scroll menu for the navigation system.
