you with precision through the traffic to your destination.  
These operating instructions will take you step by step through the functions of the  
TravelPilot DX-V and will answer the most frequently asked questions. You will find  
further information on using these instructions in the section entitled “About these  
operating instructions”.  
If you have any further questions or comments regarding the TravelPilot DX-V, please  
do not hesitate to call our telephone hotline or contact your Blaupunkt dealer. The

Notice regarding liability  
Despite constant technical developments, the navigation system may in isolated cas-  
es provide incorrect or unoptimised navigation due to improper operation, changes to  
the traffic flow regulation, construction sites, traffic load, errors or missing information  
on the navigation data media or general calculation and positioning errors. Blaupunkt  
does not accept liability and does not provide compensation for any damages or other  
drawbacks arising from this.

General Information  
About these operating instructions  
These operating instructions were written to provide you with information on the oper-  
ation and functions of your TravelPilot DX-V and to allow you to operate the equip-  
ment easily and correctly.  
Please read these instructions carefully before you use your TravelPilot DX-V for the  
first time and keep them handy for future reference in the car.  
To allow you to find information quickly and easily, the following icons have been used  
in these instructions to indicate the individual steps:  
1. … This icon indicates steps you must perform in order to complete a function.  
The way in which the equipment should react after you perform a function is  
indicated like this.  
Plus Point: This indicates special information and tips on how to use the  
TravelPilot DX-V.  
Note  
If you decided in favour of the version equipped with the wide vision TV  
monitor, you will find separate operating instructions for the monitor  
enclosed.  
Accessories  
RC 09 infrared steering-wheel remote control  
RC 09 infrared steering-wheel remote control allows you to conveniently operate the  
TravelPilot DX-V directly from the steering wheel.  
TMC D-Namic tuner box  
For dynamic navigation (automatic detours around traffic congestion), the TravelPilot  
DX-V must be connected to a TMC source (Traffic Message Channel). It is possible to  
purchase a “TMC D-Namic tuner box” as an accessory to receive TMC data.

General Information  
You can also use the TMC data received by a Blaupunkt car radio. To find out which  
Blaupunkt car radios are equipped to receive TMC data and relay this information to  
the TravelPilot DX-V, please contact your Blaupunkt specialist dealer or ring the Blau-  
punkt telephone hotline. The hotline number is listed on the last page of these instruc-  
tions.  
How navigation works  
Your TravelPilot DX-V uses GPS, a satellite-supported locating system, to determine  
the current position of the vehicle. GPS stands for Global Positioning System, a sys-  
tem which can be used to reliably determine your location anywhere in the world. A  
“gyroscope” and the electronic speedometer signal are also used to track the vehi-  
cle’s movements. The TravelPilot DX-V navigation system compares this data with  
the data stored in digital form on the navigation CD-ROM and uses it to calculate the  
routes in route guidance.  
If the TravelPilot DX-V is connected to a TMC source (“TMC D-Namic tuner box” or  
appropriately equipped car radio), it will be able to take the current traffic situation into  
account when calculating the route. For more information on TMC, please refer to the  
section on “Dynamic Route Guidance with TMC”.  
Switching the unit on  
If the TravelPilot DX-V has been properly connected to the vehicle ignition and contin-  
uous plus, the TravelPilot DX-V will switch on automatically when you start your vehi-  
cle.

General Information  
Operating introduction  
When the system is started for the first time, an operating introduction explaining the  
functions of the remote control will appear. Then you can select whether or not this  
introduction is shown each time the TravelPilot DX-V is switched on.  
Plus Point: You can activate or deactivate the operating introduction at any  
time in the “Settings” menu. For more information, please refer to the section  
on “Settings”, “Switching the operating introduction on/off”.  
Theft protection system  
It is possible to activate a coding for your TravelPilot DX-V so that the TravelPilot  
DX-V cannot be operated after it has been disconnected from the battery (e.g. in the  
event that it is stolen).  
If the coding is active, it will be necessary to enter the code number before the unit  
can be operated again after it has been disconnected from the battery. You will find  
the code number in the TravelPilot DX-V equipment passport. Never keep this pass-  
port in your vehicle!  
For more information on activating/deactivating the coding and how to switch on cod-  
ed equipment after it has been disconnected from the battery, please refer to the  
section on “Settings”, “Activating/deactivating the safety code”.  
Plus Point: This electronic theft protection system prevents unauthorised  
persons from using the TravelPilot DX-V after it has been removed from the  
vehicle.  
Switching off  
For technical reasons it is not possible to switch off the TravelPilot DX-V computer.  
However, if required, you can switch off the display by pressing the blue button 5 on  
the monitor. Spoken driving recommendations are played even if the display is switched  
off. The display can be switched on again by pressing the blue button 5 once more.

Route guidance with map display  
When you use route guidance with the map display, you can select a map showing  
your position surroundings (current vehicle position) or the destination surroundings.  
The map showing your position surroundings changes in its alignment to indicate your  
driving direction (“Automatic”) or can be made to point due north. In addition, you can  
select map display with “Junction zoom”. This means that the small scale used during  
route guidance, e.g. 0.5 mi, will automatically switch to a larger scale, e.g. 0.1 mi,  
when you approach a junction. After you have completed the turn, the map will auto-  
matically revert to the scale used previously.  
In addition, you can also conveniently select an overview map to show the entire  
route.  
In each of the different map modes, it is also possible to display other additional infor-  
mation, such as driving time, driving distance, petrol stations, car parks and tourist  
attractions.

Route guidance  
Using the traffic congestion function  
Regardless of whether or not your TravelPilot DX-V is able to receive information from  
a TMC source (“TMC D-Namic tuner box” or appropriately equipped Blaupunkt car  
radio), you can enter a traffic congestion detour manually. As a result, you can alter  
your route quickly on the basis of the traffic situation (e.g. road works, closed sections  
of road, etc.). The TravelPilot DX-V will then calculate a new route to bypass the traffic  
congestion. In order to do this, you must know the distance of the beginning and the  
end of the traffic congestion from your current position. You can also exclude entire  
roads from the route list.

Dynamic route guidance with TMC  
The TMC function on the TravelPilot DX-V enables the system to use dynamic route  
guidance (currently only in Germany and in the Netherlands) to avoid traffic conges-  
tion. The TravelPilot DX-V analyses incoming TMC traffic messages, adapts the  
planned route to the current traffic situation, and displays traffic reports symbolically  
on the map display.  
Plus Point: The TravelPilot DX-V always calculates the optimum route in  
terms of travelling time; i.e. if a detour around traffic congestion increases  
travelling time significantly, the TravelPilot DX-V would remain on the route  
passing through the traffic congestion under certain conditions. This de-  
pends on what kind of traffic congestion has been reported and how long it is  
and on how long the possible detour is.  
Dynamic route guidance is only possible when the TravelPilot DX-V is connected to a  
TMC receiver.  
TMC receivers include the “TMC D-Namic tuner box”, which was specially developed  
for the TravelPilot DX-V, and a number of Blaupunkt car radios.  
Please contact your authorized Blaupunkt dealer or ring the Blaupunkt telephone hot-  
line (the hotline number is listed on the last page of this instruction manual) to find out  
which Blaupunkt car radios can be used in conjunction with the TravelPilot DX-V.  
Plus Point: If you have neither a “TMC D-Namic tuner box” nor a suitable  
Blaupunkt car radio, you can still enter traffic congestion detours manually.  
For more information, refer to the section on “Route guidance”, “Using the  
traffic congestion function”.

way”, “Ferry” and “Toll” will be selected automatically in the menu. If  
you switch off one of these options, the TMC function will switch off au-  
tomatically as well.  
Selecting the TMC station with the TMC D-Namic tuner box  
The “TMC D-Namic tuner box” automatically searches the frequency band in the back-

range appear in a list which is updated continually.  
You can select a TMC station from this list.

station, dashes will appear in the display in place of the station name. In  
this case it will not be possible to receive traffic information. If you want  
to receive traffic information, it will be necessary to start TMC seek tun-  
ing for the TravelPilot DX-V again.

Calculating the route with TMC while route guidance is in  
progress  
The traffic messages are transmitted by TMC stations along with their regular pro-  
gramming. If a traffic message affects the route calculated, then a new route to the  
selected destination will be calculated automatically. You will hear the following voice  
output: “The route is being calculated taking traffic reports into account”.  
Note  
The TravelPilot DX-V always calculates a time-optimized route. This means  
that if the reported traffic problem were to involve too long a detour, the  
TravelPilot may decide not to calculate a diversion at all and instead lead  
you through the traffic. This behaviour depends on the length and type of  
traffic problem and the length of the possible detour.  
Displaying traffic messages  
Displaying on the map  
The received traffic messages are displayed on the map using different symbols and  
a dashed line. If the traffic obstruction lies along the route calculated by the navigation  
system, the traffic congestion symbol is displayed with a blue border.  
The following traffic congestion symbols can be displayed on the map:  
slow traffic  
traffic congestion  
totally blocked

carriageway or alongside the route).

mation will cover an area within a radius of approx. 62 mi around your current vehicle

You can select a number of route options for route calculation to meet your individual  
needs.

or avoid motorways, toll roads, ferries and switch dynamic route guidance (TMC) on  
or off. (For more information on dynamic route guidance, refer to the section on “Dy-  
namic route guidance with TMC”).

ple, can only be used in conjunction with the options “Fast route”, “Motorway”, “Ferry”  
and “Toll”.

Changing the navigation CD-ROM  
The CD-ROM cannot be changed unless the vehicle is stationary. To remove the CD-  
ROM press the  
button. The CD-ROM will eject. With the label facing up, insert  
the new CD-ROM carefully into the CD slot until it is pulled into the CD player auto-  
matically.  
Compatible navigation CD-ROMs  
The TravelPilot DX-V can only be used with navigation CD-ROMs that are labelled  
with a “DX”. If no CD-ROM is inserted in the unit, a message informing you of this  
appears in the display.  
Note  
The navigation system is not designed for use with CD-ROMs that you  
have burned yourself. Any faults or limitations to navigation perform-  
ance as a result of this are not covered by the guarantee.  
Care tips for CD-ROMs  
If a CD-ROM becomes dirty, never clean it using a circular motion but always from its  
centre to its outer edge using a soft lint-free cloth. If the CD is very dirty, we recom-  
mend you wash the CD using standard washing-up liquid. Again, when washing the  
CD, never clean it using a circular motion but wipe it from its centre to its outer edge  
and leave it to dry.  
We also recommend that you handle both the under and upper sides of the CD with  
care, since the structure of the CD is such that the information layer is located directly  
beneath the printed layer (i.e. label side).

Appendix  
Some comments regarding questions on reading quality:  
A dirty or damaged CD can lead to difficulties when reading the CD. The severity of  
the reading error depends on the amount of dirt present and the severity of the phys-  
ical damage. Severe scratches cause “read errors (data errors)”, which lead to the CD  
jumping or getting stuck during playback. All CDs must be handled with care and  
always stored in a protective case.
