• Country
• Town name
• Street

• Junctions
• Highway service
• Airport
• Hotel or motel
• Hospital
• Parking lot

After entering or calling a destination location, route calculation starts.

Function sequence 

The navigation system integrated into the radio control panel and navigation unit (A2/56) uses the data entered to calculate the data required to reach the destination (destination-oriented navigation). Further subfunctions are:

• Position finding and destination-oriented navigation, function
• Route guidance through voice output, function
• Display compass

The route is calculated in accordance with the options set. If observance of the options is not possible, then the options set are ignored for the sections in question and a message is displayed and signaled audibly. The set options can be displayed and changed at any time.

After the calculation, the route is indicated by arrow symbols on the display of the radio control panel and navigation unit and in the instrument cluster (A1). An acoustic announcement is then made, saying "The route is calculated". If the vehicle is no longer moving on the pre-calculated route, then the route is recalculated. If the recalculated values are plausible for the navigation system, then the modified route is displayed. An alternative route is offered under dynamic route guidance if there is a traffic jam or a road block on the calculated route.

The system is activated or deactivated and the destination location and street are entered using the operating panels on the radio control panel and navigation unit.
