VOLVO NAVIGATION SYSTEM (VNS) WITH RTTVNS is a navigation system developed byVolvo that is designed to help guide you tothe destination of your choice and provide
information along the way.
RTT1 (Real Time Traffic) is an information systemdeveloped by Volvo, which can detect roads/streets with traffic disruptions and make it possi-ble to select an alternative route past the problemarea.
The system includes features that enable you toset itineraries, search for certain types of points ofinterest along your route, store special destina-tions, obtain traffic informaton en route, etc.
The system indicates the vehicle’s current loca-tion, and shows part or all of the route to your
destination, depending on the settings you havemade. If at any time you should decide to deviatefrom the route originally set by the system, a newroute to the destination will automatically be cal-culated.
By enabling you to reach your destination quicklyand by the most direct route, Volvo's navigationsystem also helps contribute to improving theenvironment.

Global Positioning System (GPS)antennaThe antenna is integrated into the roof mod-ule.
Voice controlA number of navigation system commandscan be voice controlled. The microphone isnear the driver's sun visor (2a) and the voicecontrol button is located on the steeringwheel keypad (2b). For additional information,see page 26.
Main unitThe main unit is located in and behind thecenter console and includes the followingfunctions:
• Determining the vehicle’s location.
• Calculating a route to the selected desti-nation.
• Voice guidance.
• Processing traffic information.
The GPS and TMC receivers are integratedinto the main unit.
Vehicle locationThe navigation system uses signals from theGlobal Positioning System, the vehicle’s
speedometer and a gyroscopic sensor to cal-culate the vehicle’s current location anddirection.
This also helps the system calculate directionand location if the GPS signal is temporarilyinterrupted, such as when driving through atunnel.
Traffic information (TMC)*The Traffic Message Channel (TMC) is astandardized code system for transmittingtraffic information. The receiver automaticallytunes to the correct frequency and receptionis handled by the audio system’s FM antenna.
NOTE
TMC is not available in all areas/countries.The area covered by the system is beingsteadily expanded, which makes occa-sional updates necessary.
See page 17 for information about updatingmaps and system software.
ScreenThe screen displays the maps and providesdetailed information about routes, distances,etc.
For information about caring for the screen,see page 18.

LanguagesThe voice control system is constantly beingdeveloped and at the time of printing, the fol-lowing languages were available:
• Dutch
• English (UK)
• English (US)
• French (CAN)
• French (FRA)
• German
• Italian
• Spanish (EU)
• Spanish (US)
• Swedish
NOTE
Voice control for the navigation system willonly function in the languages listed.
To change languages, go to SettingsSystem options Language.
The available languages have this iconin the list.
Language-dependent user profileThe voice control feature will only understandthe languages set in System options.
For example, assume that the profile User 1has been stored by a French-speaking driverand the language set to Canadian French. Ifthe driver then changes the system languageto English, the profile User 1 can no longerbe selected because the system will now onlyunderstand English and expect English to bespoken. The alternative Default setting willbe active instead.
To improve the system's capability to under-stand the driver's English pronunciation, carryout voice training and store the results in theprofile User 2 with the language set to Eng-lish (which will make both languages availa-ble) or change the language profile for User 1to English.

Settings Import/edit MyPOI
Many companies offer POI files on their websites, which allows the user to supplementVolvo's map database by showing POIs fromother sources.
NOTE
• Supplementing the map databaserequires a certain knowledge of com-puters.
• The POI file formats and proceduresfor downloading these files are set bythe respective manufacturers/distribu-tors. This means that there is nostandard procedure for downloadingthese files and these instructions can-not give exact step-by-step instruc-tions for doing so.
• Contact your Volvo retailer if you haveany questions about downloading POIfiles.
The following is a general example of the pro-cedure for downloading a POI file from theInternet:
1. Go to the source's web site and searchfor the POI file to be downloaded.
2. Select a POI file with the "gpx" formatand download it. If the file is not availablein the gpx format, it will have to be con-verted to this format after it has beendownloaded3.
3. Copy the POI file to a USB flash drive.
4. Insert the flash drive in the vehicle's USBsocket, located under the center consolearmrest. In the infotainment system'smenus, go to Settings Import/editMyPOI.
5. Select Import + OK and follow theinstructions on the screen.
When the files have been imported, certainsettings can be made for the new MyPOIgroup:
• The name can be changed
• The MyPOI map icon can be changed (ifan icon was included with the importedPOI file, it will automatically be preselec-ted)
• One of three different audible alerts canbe selected (to alert the driver when thevehicles approaches the MyPOI icon onthe map, see page 58)
• Choose to display/hide MyPOI icons onthe map.
When all of the choices have been made,select Store + OK to complete the procedureor to import/edit a new POI group.
All POIs that have been added will be placedunder the heading "My POI".

Frequently asked questions

The vehicle’s position on the map isincorrect.The Global Positioning System (GPS) indi-cates the car’s position with an accuracy ofabout 65 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 anydistinct turns.
Tall buildings and mountains, tunnels, via-ducts, over/underpasses etc., also have anegative affect on the reception of GPS sig-nals, which means that the estimation of thecar’s position may not be precise.
VNS does not always calculate thefastest/shortest route.Parameters such as distance, width of road,type of road, number of right or left turns,traffic circles etc., are all taken into accountwhen calculating the best theoretical route.Experience and local knowledge may, how-ever, lead to a better choice of route.
The VNS system chooses toll roads,freeways, and ferries even though Ihave opted to avoid them.When calculating routes over longer dis-tances, for technical reasons the system canonly use major roads. If you select NO for toll
roads and freeways, they will be avoided asmuch as possible, but will be used if no otherreasonable alternative is available.
After being transported, the car’sposition on the map is incorrect.If the car is transported, for example by ferryor train, or in such a way as to impede thereception of GPS signals, it can take up to5 minutes to calculate the car’s new positioncorrectly.
The vehicle’s position on the map isincorrect after its battery has beendisconnected.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 moveserratically after a tire changeIn addition to the GPS receiver, the vehicle’sspeedometer and an onboard gyro are alsoused to calculate the vehicle’s current loca-tion and direction of travel. If the spare tire isput on the vehicle, or is a change is madefrom summer to winter tires (or vice versa),the navigation system must "learn" the newdimensions of the tire(s). Therefore, it may benecessary to drive for several miles, including
a number of turns, for the system to makethis adjustment.
The map image does not correspond toactual conditions.Factors such as the constant expansion andrebuilding of the road network, new trafficregulations 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 cer-tain areas. If this is the case, the system auto-matically changes the map scale.
Certain menu options are not available.Check the settings that you have made.Select Reset to default for the particularoption to return to the default settings.
The car symbol on screen jumpsforward or spins.The system may need a few seconds tosense the position and movement of the carbefore you drive off.
