VOLVO NAVIGATION SYSTEM (VNS) WITH RTTVNS is a navigation system developed by Volvo that isdesigned to help guide you to the destination of your choiceand provide information along the way.

RTT1 (Real Time Traffic) is an information system developed by Volvo,which can detect roads/streets with traffic disruptions and make itpossible to select an alternative route past the problem area.

The system includes features that enable you to set itineraries, searchfor certain types of points of interest along your route, store specialdestinations, obtain traffic informaton en route, etc.

The system indicates the vehicle’s current location, and shows partor all of the route to your destination, depending on the settings youhave made. If at any time you should decide to deviate from the routeoriginally set by the system, a new route to the destination will auto-matically be calculated.

By enabling you to reach your destination quickly and by the mostdirect route, Volvo's navigation system also helps contribute toimproving the environment.

MyPOI.5. Select Import + OK and follow the instruc-

tions on the screen.

When the files have been imported, certain set-tings can be made for the new MyPOI group:

• The name can be changed

• The MyPOI map icon can be changed (if anicon was included with the imported POIfile, it will automatically be preselected)

• One of three different audible alerts can beselected (to alert the driver when the vehi-cles approaches the MyPOI icon on themap, see page 58)

• Choose to display/hide MyPOI icons onthe map.

When all of the choices have been made, selectStore + OK to complete the procedure or toimport/edit a new POI group.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS


Frequently asked questions

The vehicle’s position on the map is

incorrect.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) indicatesthe car’s position with an accuracy of about65 feet (20 meters).

Accuracy may be even less when driving onroads lying parallel to another road, windingroads, roads on several levels, and also afterdriving a long distance without making any dis-tinct turns.

Tall buildings and mountains, tunnels, via-ducts, over/underpasses etc., also have a neg-ative affect on the reception of GPS signals,which means that the estimation of the car’sposition may not be precise.

VNS does not always calculate the

fastest/shortest route.

Parameters such as distance, width of road,type of road, number of right or left turns, trafficcircles etc., are all taken into account whencalculating the best theoretical route. Experi-ence and local knowledge may, however, leadto a better choice of route.

The VNS system chooses toll roads,

freeways, and ferries even though I have

opted to avoid them.

When calculating routes over longer distances,for technical reasons the system can only usemajor roads. If you select NO for toll roads and

freeways, they will be avoided as much as pos-sible, but will be used if no other reasonablealternative is available.

After being transported, the car’s

position on the map is incorrect.

If the car is transported, for example by ferry ortrain, or in such a way as to impede the recep-tion of GPS signals, it can take up to 5 minutesto calculate the car’s new position correctly.

The vehicle’s position on the map is

incorrect after its battery has been

disconnected.

If power has been cut from the GPS antenna,it can take more than 5 minutes for the GPSsignals to be received correctly and the car’sposition to be calculated.

The car symbol on the map moves

erratically after a tire change

In addition to the GPS receiver, the vehicle’sspeedometer and an onboard gyro are alsoused to calculate the vehicle’s current locationand direction of travel. If the spare tire is put onthe vehicle, or is a change is made from sum-mer to winter tires (or vice versa), the naviga-tion system must "learn" the new dimensionsof the tire(s). Therefore, it may be necessary todrive for several miles, including a number ofturns, for the system to make this adjustment.

The map image does not correspond to

actual conditions.

Factors such as the constant expansion andrebuilding of the road network, new traffic reg-ulations constantly being introduced etc.,mean that the digital map database is notalways complete.

The maps and data on the DVDs are static.They will not automatically update to reflectreal-life changes to road and traffic patterns.Updated DVDs are produced periodically.Please contact your Volvo retailer for moreinformation about availability.

The map scale sometimes changes.

There is no detailed map information for certainareas. If this is the case, the system automati-cally changes the map scale.

Certain menu options are not available.

Check the settings that you have made. SelectReset to default for the particular option toreturn to the default settings.

The car symbol on screen jumps forward

or spins.

The system may need a few seconds to sensethe position and movement of the car beforeyou drive off.

1. Switch off the VNS system and the ignition.

2. Switch on the ignition again and restartVNS, but remain at a standstill for a shorttime before driving off.

I am planning a long trip but do not want

to specify destinations in the cities that I

will be passing through. What is the

easiest way to set up an itinerary?

Select the final destination directly on the mapusing the cross hairs. The system will automat-ically guide you to the final destination even ifyou drive past intermediate destinations.

The system’s map information is not up-

to-date

Contact your Volvo retailer for updated mapinformation.
