Wordmatch principle

Your GPS navigation system features a

"wordmatch" system designed to make

it easier for you to enter names. The

system runs ongoing checks, compar-

ing your destination entries with the

data stored on the map CD/DVD as the

basis for instant response. The user

benefits include:

> When you make an entry that

consists of more than one word, the

system can identify the name regard-

less of the sequence in which you

enter the individual words.

Example:

Official version:

J.F. Kennedy Square

Possible entries:

Kennedy Square J.F.

or:

Square J.F. Kennedy

> Names of specific locations can also

vary from the official versions,

provided that the spelling of the entry

corresponds to a standard form used

in another country

> When you are entering the names of

cities and streets the system will

complete them automatically as soon

as enough letters are available to

ensure unambiguous identification.

Example:

You want to drive to Rexford Drive in

Beverly Hills; as soon as you enter

the letter "x", the system has enough

information for positive identification

and can then finish the entry

automatically

> The system only accepts name

entries beginning with letters that are

stored on the map CD/DVD. This

makes it impossible to enter an incor-

rect name or address.
