PLANNING window opens.
6.1.1 Enter the starting point
The starting point of a route is the point at which
you want to begin your trip. This can differ from
your current location.
The starting point is only important if you want to
see a planned route on the map, but currently have
no GPS reception or you are not currently at the
planned starting point. The starting point that you
enter therefore has the flow number “0”.
As soon as you begin navigation, your current
location will be used as the basis for the route
calculation.
The first stage is therefore the trip to the route stage
with the flow number “1”.
1.
Touch the SPECIFY STARTING POINT field.
