Hey Gang
There's a "I' in the left vertical row next to the map on the navigation. I assume it means "information" for the area. Does anyone have a site or a pdf I can get to which explains teh icons. There is one that looks like a square with loops in all corners that I don't understand.
thanks

The square with arrows in it claims to be for entering the destination via map - but can also be used to scroll around the map
Some kind person previously pointed me to the online version of the manuals, where you will find these documented (in the UK edition from page 132 onwards). These are in the Information section - click on the E60 forums loga at the top and navigate from there

why is on page 138 of the upper pdf the map 3D?! there are clouds and so on, but in german E60's there aren't! there's just a 2D map with top view!

Sorry for the confusing icon question. I DID NOT mean the left side vertical icons, but the icons that appear on the map itself.

S/W version 22 will have a scottish version whereby the Perspective map is linked to the wiper rain sensor. In wet weather the blue sky above the map will turn drizzle grey.
