Planning a route using coordinates

Important: In the interest of safety and to avoid distractions while you are driving, you should always plan a route before you start driving.

To plan a route using a pair of coordinates, do the following:

1. Select the Main Menu button to open the Main Menu.

   

2. Select Search.

   

   The search screen opens with the keyboard showing.

3. Select the type of search button to the right of the search box.

   

4. Select Latitude Longitude.

   The keyboard changes to a special keyboard for coordinate entry.

5. Type in your pair of coordinates. You can enter any of these coordinate types:
   • Decimal values, for example,
     N 51.51000 W 0.13454
     51.51000 -0.13454

     Tip: For decimal values you don't have to use a letter to indicate the latitude and longitude. For locations west of the 0 meridian and locations south of the equator, use a minus sign (-) before the coordinate.

   • Degrees, minutes and seconds, for example,
     N 51°30′31″ W 0°08′34″
   • GPS standard coordinates, for example,
     N 51 30.525 W 0 08.569

   Note: The bar below the coordinates goes red if you enter coordinates that are not recognised by your GO.

6. As you type in the coordinates, suggestions are shown based on what you have entered. You can continue typing or select a suggestion.

   Towns and roads are shown on the left, POIs are shown on the right.

   Tip: To see more results, hide the keyboard or swipe the results list to scroll it.

   Tip: You can switch between seeing the results on the map or in a list by selecting the list/map button:

   

7. Select a suggestion for your destination.
8. Select Drive.

   Your navigation device plans a route then starts to guide you to your destination. As soon as you start driving, the guidance view is shown automatically.

   Tip: If your destination is in a different time zone, you see a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign and the time difference in hours and half hours in the arrival information panel. The estimated time of arrival is the local time at your destination.

   Tip: You can add a stop to a route that you have already planned.

   Tip: You can save a route using My Routes.
