Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the

GPS receiver may not receive the necessary information

from the satellites.
Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device

display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination,

and the approximate distance to it is shown inside the

compass ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route

and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in

a straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as

buildings and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences

in altitude are not taken into account when calculating the

distance. Route guidance is active only when you move.
