How to Set a Destination in SYNC Navigation

Navigate to a Destination Using Voice Control:

The touch screen can be used to set a destination in a variety of ways, for example by a street address, a town centre or a Place of Interest (POI).The easiest way is by voice: 

1. Touch the Voice button on the steering wheel
2. Say “Destination address”
3. The system will ask for the full address and will display an example on-screen
4. Say the address naturally, e.g. “2 Whitehall, London”
5. The system finds the town first, then locates the street within the town
6. The location is displayed on a map on the screen
7. Press the Voice button on the steering wheel
8. Say “Set as destination”, “set as waypoint” or “change something”
9. For this example, say set as destination
10. A map showing the current location of the vehicle will appear on the screen
11. When the vehicle begins to move, the route guidance will start

Note: If you do not know the full address SYNC 2 will request the information step by step. For each step (junction, place of interest, street address), a list of available voice commands that are relevant to that particular step will appear on the screen.

Navigate to a Destination Using Touch Screen:

1. Touch the Navigation corner
2. Touch Dest
3. Choose how to input the destination
4. For this example, touch Address
5. Enter the information, section by section
6. Touch GO when finished
7. A map of the destination will appear on the screen
8. Touch Set as destination
9. When the vehicle begins to move the route guidance audio will start
10. Alternatively, the address can be set as waypoint or save to favourites

Note: For entering an address you can either use town input or postcode input. Pressing the town button allows you to switch between town and postcode input.

When setting a destination, there are three options for the route to take:

• Fastest Route, which uses the fastest moving roads
• Shortest Route, which uses the shortest distance
• Eco Route, which uses the most fuel-efficient route

After entering a destination, these route preferences will appear on screen as soft buttons to select before finally starting the route guidance.

Within the route preferences a preferred route can be selected as default, in order to speed up destination input process by always starting with the preferred route option.

Some on-screen buttons have multiple light bars along their right-hand side. The first light bar will be highlighted initially, touching the button a second time will light up the second light bar and display further options, and so on. For example, changing the map mode from 3D to North Up to Direction Headed.

1. From the home screen, just press the navigation button, and you'll get a map with an arrow icon indicating your current location.
2. Pressing the destination button will bring up a list of several choices to search by, street address, previous destinations, favourites, points of interest or POIs as they are commonly referred, and so on.
3. Touch the search button at the top of the screen.
4. Type in address, city name, POI or intersection.
5. Touch the Search button then press Start to begin turn by turn directions.

Searching by Category or POI using the Touch Screen:

1. From the navigation home screen, touch the destination button and what you want to search for, like food, fuel, hotels, ATM, and more.
2. Choose food, for example, then how you want to search, such as nearby and a list of restaurants near your current location will appear.
3. Select the one you want then touch Set as New Destination.

Note: If at any time you want to cancel a route, touch the menu button here, and then touch the cancel route tile.
