About GPS navigation
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a constellation of up to 32 satellites that enable a GPS receiver to calculate its geographical position.
For a sufficiently precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the data from at least three satellites. With the data from 4 or more satellites the altitude above sea level can also be determined.
Geographical terrain (such as mountains), man-made structures (such as highway overpasses, bridges and tall buildings), and even weather can interfere with or disrupt the GPS signal.
Once the navigation device has determined your position, it can be used as a starting point for route calculation.
The map data on your navigation device includes the geographical coordinates of all digitally recorded Points Of Interest (POIs), streets and places. This enables the device to calculate a route between a starting point and a destination.
The calculation of the current position and its representation on the map takes place once every second so your current position is always shown on the map.
If GPS reception is impaired, navigation is interrupted but the navigation software remains active. As soon as GPS reception is restored, the navigation system calculates any change of position which has occurred in the meantime and navigation may simply be continued.

Caution! The United States government operates the Global Positioning System (GPS) and is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. Changes by the United States government may affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment, including your personal navigation device.
Caution! Ordinances or laws may restrict use of certain abilities of your navigation device on public or private land.

The NAVIGON DirectHelp feature offers speedy access to emergency POIs. You can quickly find a telephone number and make an emergency call (when paired with a mobile phone), find an address, get directions, and drive to help. DirectHelp also provides you with directional distance to the nearest intersection, and your latitude/longitude location. This information can help emergency personnel quickly come to your assistance.
DirectHelp is available at any time, while you are on-route or off, and with or without GPS reception. The last known GPS position is used when GPS reception is not available. With GPS, you can quickly find help and calculate a route to a DirectHelp POI.
The DirectHelp Window

GPS Position Type
The location type indicates whether GPS reception is available or not. If the location type is:
Simulated Position: Displays only once when neither current or historical GPS position is available. Shown at time of purchase or whenever the device is reset.
Your current location: GPS reception is available. Your current location is shown in the Location Address field.
Your last location: GPS reception has been lost. The last GPS location is shown in the Location Address field.
Location Address
With GPS reception, the distance to the intersection closest to your present location is shown. If GPS is not available, this is the approximate distance to the closest intersection from the last known GPS position. If the device is located:
On an Unnamed Road Unnamed Road appears with the distance and direction to the nearest navigable intersection.
Off Road Off Road appears with the distance and direction to the nearest navigable intersection.
Latitude/Longitude
Show Your Current Location on the Map
View your location on a map. Once a DirectHelp POI is selected, tapping this button centers the map on the location of the selected POI. The selected POI is shown as a gray circle. If you have enabled the display of the particular POI icon category (such as Healthcare for Hospital) in map display, the icon and label of the selected POI appears on the map. Changing the zoom level (Zoom In) or (Zoom Out))
affects whether the icons display.
The crosshairs indicate the center of the map. The name of the POI closest to the center of the map is shown.

This page intentionally left blank.

Caution! Please be sure to read, understand, and follow the safety information in "Important safety information" on page 10.
You can speak the city, street and house number for your destination and the NAVIGON 8100T shows you a list of destinations that match your city and street spoken entry. If necessary, you can also change the destination.
Because NAVIGON 8100T voice destination entry 'learns' from previous commands, returning correct destinations becomes faster and easier over time.
The Audio Assistant is used to set spoken entry settings.
General Instructions
When using voice destination entry, always:
- Speak at a normal rate and clearly say each syllable in the city and street names.
- Speak directly toward the NAVIGON 8100T microphone.
- Provide as much information as possible. Include the directional info (North, South, East, West) and the street type (Street, Lane, Avenue, Boulevard, etc.). A spoken entry of "East Madison Street" returns a much shorter list of possible matches than an entry of "Madison".
Languages
When using voice destination entry, speak the address in the language of the location. In the United States and all Canadian provinces except Quebec, speak the name of the location in English. For locations in Quebec, where the language is French, speak the French name of the province, city and street in the location language. Speak the house number in the language used on the NAVIGON 8100T.
For example:
| If you are looking for a location in: | And the NAVIGON 8100T Language is: | Say: | |
| The State/Province, City and Street Name in: | The House Number and answer questions in: | ||
| New York | English | English | English |
| New York | Spanish | English | Spanish |
| Quebec | English | French | English |
| Quebec | French | French | French |
| Quebec | Spanish | French | Spanish |
Street, Highway, Route Names

Note: See "House Numbers" on page 42 for instructions on entering house numbers.
When using voice destination entry, consider the guidelines below:
| Numbered Routes | Rule | Example | Spoken as |
| 0 - 99 | Say each one or two digit number as it appears, NOT by the individual digits that make up the number. | IN-2CA-99 | INDIANA TwoCALIFORNIA Ninety-Nine |
| 100-999 | Say the first digit by itself and the second and third digits as a separate number.Exception: If the second digit is a zero, it is pronounced as the letter ‘O’ and the first and third digits are pronounced individually. | I-580WI-158US-101 | I Five EightyWISCONSIN One Fifty Eight(Exception) U.S. One O One |
| 1,000-9,999 | Say the first two digits as one number and the second two digits as another number.Exception: Some alter-nates can be used when a zero appears within the name. | 1234 RD1201 ST1001 AVE | Twelve Thirty Four RoadTwelve O One StreetOne Thousand One Avenue(Exception) Ten O One Ave |
House Numbers
Speak house numbers using the following conventions:
| For: | Rule | Example | Spoken as |
| Numbers | Say numbers as individual digits. | 241 | Two Four One |
| 12358 | One Two Three Five Eight | ||
| Zeros | Always say “Zero” rather than the letter “O”. | 302 | Three Zero Two |
| 14030 | One Four Zero Three Zero |
Background Noise
NAVIGON 8100T voice destination entry works best in an environment with a minimal amount of background noise. Possible sources of noise include:
- Open windows
- Passengers/bystanders talking
Heating/Air conditioning - Engine/traffic noise
Radio/CDs
Reducing background noise improves spoken entry performance.
