Navigation

This chapter is about the embedded

navigation system which guides to

desired destinations.
The current traffic situation is taken

into account in the route calculation.

For this purpose, the Infotainment

system receives traffic

announcements in the current

reception area via RDS-TMC.
The navigation system cannot,

however, take into account traffic

incidents, traffic regulations changed

at short notice and hazards or

problems that arise suddenly (e.g.

road works).

Caution

The usage of the navigation

system does not release the driver

from the responsibility for a

correct, vigilant attitude in road

traffic. The relevant traffic

regulations must always be

followed. If a navigation instruction

contradicts traffic regulations, the

traffic regulations always apply.

Functioning of the navigation

system

The position and movement of the

vehicle are detected by the navigation

system using sensors. The travelled

distance is determined by the

vehicle’s speedometer signal, turning

movements on bends by a sensor.

The position is determined by the

GPS (Global Positioning System)

satellites.
By comparing the sensor signals with

the digital maps, it is possible to

determine the position with an

accuracy of approx. 10 m.
The system will also work with poor

GPS reception. However, the

accuracy of the determination of the

position will be reduced.
After the entry of the destination

address or point of interest (nearest

petrol station, hotel, etc.), the route is

calculated from the current location to

the destination selected.
Route guidance is provided by voice

output and an arrow, as well as with

the aid of a multi-colour map display.

138

Infotainment system

Important information

TMC traffic information system and

dynamic route guidance

The TMC traffic information system

receives all current traffic information

from TMC radio stations. This

information is included in the

calculation of the overall route. During

this process, the route is planned so

that traffic problems related to pre-

selected criteria are avoided.
To be able to use TMC traffic

information, the system must receive

TMC stations in the relevant region.

Live navigation

When data sharing and the vehicle

position are activated, the navigation

system will show online traffic

information as well as online

information for parking, fuel prices

and weather. The services can be

stopped at anytime by deactivating

data sharing and the vehicle position.
Data sharing and the vehicle position

can be activated or deactivated via

the privacy menu in the System

settings.

Network and connected services

119.

The privacy menu and the menu for

connected services are also

accessible via the message icon on

the screen.

Map data

All required map data is stored within

the Infotainment system.
Map updates are available at a

Vauxhall Service Partner or at the

MyVauxhall customer portal. To

download the map updates from the

Vauxhall customer portal, a

MyVauxhall account and an empty

USB stick with at least 32 GB memory

and FAT 32 formatting are necessary.
Download and save the map data on

a computer and unpack the data onto

the USB stick.
To update the map data in the

Infotainment system, connect the

USB stick to the Infotainment system,

select the navigation function and

follow the steps on the Info Display.
