NSW TIGUAN RNS510 Navigation question

[chenxiongni]

Hi Guys,

Sorry, this is my first post, please accept my regret about my English, but I will try my best to explain the issue.

I have Tiguan 2013 Pacific, with RNS510 as after market accessories installed by dealer. The car is great, and i love it. The one thing i get confused is how the navigation works.

I live in Hurstville which Southern Sub in Sydney. When i setup a new destination in Navigation, i can see the map always has a pointer set to North in top right corner. So, the problem i have is, If the new destination is located at the north part of my current place, the map shows correctly, and everything face up and i can easy understand if i need turn right, or left.

However, If the new destination is located South part of my current place, everything in map shows completely reversed, the car pointer will point down, and turn left in map means turn right in the actual driving.

Not sure if anyone has had this issue before, or if there is any settings which i can change to make the map always facing up, regardless the destination.

Thank you

Andy

Hi Andy,

This is configurable.

You have it set like a paper map, with north always pointing up on the display. Your location icon will move around as your heading changes whilst the map stays static.

Press on the little compass button in the top right hand corner of the map display. This will change the orientation to always to the default setting of 'heading' which basically moves the map around under your car so that 'up' on the map corresponds to 'forwards' in your car.

Press the button again to change back to up=north.

I just re-read your post and realised I misinterpreted..I've corrected my post.

I could be wrong but I read it opposite to Kamold

It is set to North always up and the CAR icon moves around and points down when you want it up

Press the compass button and it should swing the pointer to point to North regardless of which way the car is facing

Then the CAR icon will ALWAYS point UP in the direction of travel which will always be toward the top of the screen

IE you are sitting in your garage facing south, come out onto street and turn right you will be facing west and map will have west at the top as you turn it will follow so that the direction of travel is always at the top.

Is that what you want

Hi Hillbilly,

Yes, this is what i want. i want the car icon always point up regardless. I will try it out tonight and report in here.

Again, Thank you for both of Kamold and Hillbilly.
