Navigation problem

landowner · Monday at 18:51

Now then, having trouble setting navigation on Freelander 2
I can put the address in and then get to screen with all the arrows on it but thats it, manual doesn't say what to do after putting address in to get it to work
Old person so please be gentle

Fantastic solution to those problems.

Very easy to use.

After 45 + years driving the highways and byways, some years pre most motorways, I can get most places without a map or a motorway. I do need the above A to Z books for the final mile or so though.
It's just annoying that I can't get the nav to work or the bluetooth phone

It's been a while since I've use the FL2 nav, but I'm sure there's a strart guidance button.
The system isn't particularly intuitive, but functional.

Done it , put address in, press ok then press destination
Now to find out how to store 'Home' in the memory and delete all the destinations stored in there

I'm sure all that was in the navigation owner's manual.

Now you see it isn't, Put address in yes, press ok, yes, but gets complicated after that with too many options .
I had to try different things before I got it to work, manual wasn't helpful

Got to be honest, I just use my phone if I need navigation in the F2 - much quicker, has traffic info and generally more up-to-date.
I think the digital LR clock on the screensaver option is nicer on the screen - though you can’t set it as ‘default’, which is a shame.

I find that somewhere to put my glasses, tin of mints, pens and fluff is much more useful.

If I found the need to use sat nav, I'd stick one of those plungery phone holders on the screen. A billion Uber drivers that can't speak English (Edit: or drive) can't all be wrong.

But I will admit, it'd be nice to have a reversing camera. Well I suppose I could have the camera, but would be nice to have something to display what it 'sees'.

It's just a toy most of the time, found sat nav handy around Edinburgh when we went though
I usually look up my destination on google maps first and then just go, nav is handy when it gets complicated in strange cities, my memory isn't what it was and things change over the years.

Live traffic is more important to me, especially on the motorway network

Swot I do in the F2, to the right of the steering wheel, right in the lower corner of the screen
