Restore Lock-to-Position and Smart Zoom

You can move, rotate, tilt, and zoom the map during navigation.

When you rotate, tilt, or zoom the map, the map follows your position but does not change the view

parameter you have modified. Tap

to return to the full Smart Zoom mode.

If you move the map, all parts of Smart Zoom are deactivated, and the view freezes. Tap

configure your Travel Companion to follow your position (Lock-to-Position) and re-enable Smart

Zoom.

Turning on Restore Lock-to-Position configures the Travel Companion to automatically lock to the

position after a few seconds of inactivity.

You can also set the time-out. Shorter delays are best if you tend to accidentally change the map display,

but you might prefer a longer delay if you often look for things around your position while driving.

WARNING! Remember to look at the display only if it is absolutely safe to do so.

NOTE: If you tap before this automatic feature comes into effect, Smart Zoom and

Lock-to-Position is re-enabled instantly.

Zoom in after find

When the Zoom in after find feature is turned off, the Travel Companion centers the map to the location

selected in Go to but does not change the zoom level. If you turn this feature on, the Travel Companion

zooms in to the selected point.

The zoom level in this case depends on the type of object you have searched for. For example, in the

case of a city search, the zoom level shows you the whole region/state or at least a significant part of it

around its centre. Selecting a POI, a junction or an exact address gives you a closer look with only a

few streets on the display.

Overview mode

Turn this feature on, and the Overview mode is triggered when the next turn is at a distance.

Turn distance determines when the Travel Companion switches to the Overview and back to the

Navigation view. If the distance from the next route event is more than the value set here, the map view

switches to Overview mode, a top-down, North-up oriented map view with a zoom level that enables

you to see a larger part of the map around your position. As you approach the route event, normal

navigation returns automatically.

The Overview zoom level determines the fixed zoom level of the map in the Overview mode. You can

change the zoom level manually at any time, but when you enter the Overview mode again, the zoom

level is reset to this value.

Sound settings

You can configure the parameters to determine the sounds and sound alerts on your Travel Companion

on this screen.
