15 Signpost It shows the available destinations and the road numbers.

If you are approaching a freeway exit or a complex intersection and the needed information exists, the map is replaced with a 3D view of the junction. See page 18. When entering a tunnel, the map is replaced with a generic tunnel image. See page 18. 1.3.1 Streets and roads Alpine navigation shows the streets similarly to paper road maps. Their width and colours correspond to their importance; you can easily tell a freeway from a small street. 1.3.2 GPS position markers When your GPS position is available, Alpine navigation marks your current position. By default, this marker is a blue arrow. The dot near the arrow shows the GPS position as perceived by the GPS receiver. When on-road navigation is selected, the current position marker may not show your exact GPS position and heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to eliminate GPS position errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road. 14
