Michelin X970 - Manual (Page 54)

10_Notes and Tips
This paragraph contains additional information and tips to help you get the best out of your ViaMichelin Navigation
X-970 system:
• As you enter letters in a search screen, the choice is restricted automatically. Only existing letters or figures are
displayed and enabled. As soon as the criterion you want appears in the top bar, you can click it to select it.
• To delete a letter, click the left arrow at the bottom right of the screen.
• To find a town quickly, you can enter a few letters of the town’s name. For example, when you enter “ PHIL” the
search engine displays “Philadelphia”, “SAN FRA” displays “San Francisco”.
• To find a street quickly, you can enter a few letters of the street name you want; for example, if you enter “ MADI” the
search engine displays “Madison Avenue”, while “AVE” will bring up “Avenue of the Americas”.
• When preparing a route, some functions are available when you click a place icon. For example:
– Move up lets you switch a place to the previous stage of the route. This means the arrival point can become the
departure point or a stage can be moved to the previous position or become the departure point in the journey to
be (re)calculated in a single click.
– Move down lets you switch a place to the next stage of the route. This lets you change the departure point
to the arrival point or move a stage to the next position or change it to the arrival point in the journey to be
(re)calculated in a single click.
• The calculated route is displayed on the map as a green line highlighting the roads taken.
• When your ViaMichelin Navigation X-970 is connected and is not used for a certain time, the software will
automatically start up free navigation. Click the “Back” button to return to the initial screen.
• If you start the search without entering the POI by clicking “ Display All”, the system will list all the POIs it knows.
• When searching for a POI or a saved address, the system presents the POIs in descending order of distance – in a
straight line - from the specified place.
• Click in the space on the top bar to zoom several levels in or out on the map.
• Click the cursor in the top bar and move it to the zoom level you want.
• Click in the screen and move the map in the direction you want to display the area you are interested in.
• If the coordinates show a point a long way from a road, the message “ The place selected must be less than 15
miles from a road” appears. Click “OK” to return to the previous screen and choose an arrival point or departure
point nearer a road.
• If several saved addresses or POIs are very close together, you will need to zoom in to separate them.
• The history only contains the last 15 destinations used. It is automatically updated: each new destination replaces
the oldest. You can therefore not delete the history as it updates progressively with new routes.
• When the location marker is centered on a saved address, the “ Delete” button is automatically displayed at the
bottom left of the screen. If you click on this button, the system displays the message “ Are you sure you want to
delete this address?”. Click “Yes” to delete the saved address.
• In navigation, displaying a very large number of POIs may call on the device’s resources and reduce the smoothness
of the dynamic display. You are therefore recommended to display only the POIs you need for the route calculated.
