Alpha-nav AN5650NV - Route Planning and Management; Selecting Destinations

23
3 On-road navigation
When first started, ALPHA-NAV navigation 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 My 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 multi-point route. You can
add as many destinations to your route as you like.
You can also use ALPHA-NAV navigation for off-road navigation. For details, see
page 64.
3.1 Selecting the destination of a route
ALPHA-NAV navigation 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 23).
• Enter an address with postal code (page 36). 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 39).
• Select a location on the map with the Find on Map feature (page 48).
• Use a previously saved Favourite destination (page 48).
• Select a location from the History of previously used destinations (page 50).
• Enter the coordinate of the destination (page 51).
3.1.1 Entering an address or a part of the address
If you know at least a part of the address, it is the quickest way to select the
destination of the route.
Using the same screen, you can find an address by entering:
• the exact address, including house number
• the center of a city/town
• an intersection
• the midpoint of a street
• any of the above, starting the search with the postal code (page 38)
