High-level functions and usability guide the driver to the destination with certainty.


Speedy searching with touch-panel operation, flexible switching between 2D+2D, 3D+3D and other map data screens, a new 3D menu with the feel of floating in a threedimensional space, and other features navigate drivers safer, faster, and more accurately. This is the pinnacle of the Clarion H.M.I. concept that focuses on the interface as the connection between the user and navigational information, images, and geographical data.

3D menu display with new concept

The menu display builds on a new design concept derived from Clarion’s H.M.I. philosophy. The 3D display of menus is arranged in a circle enabling quick and intuitive selection of the desired function.

Guidance screen

An automatic crossing zoom screen guides you through crossings, roundabouts and intersections. The intersection illustration uses a 3D display with clear directions. Furthermore, “turn lists” and a smart “turn-by-turn mode” smoothly guide you all the way to your destination.

*Graphics for motorway signboards are available for the following countries: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxemburg, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the UK.

Smart, simple and direct control on touch-panel display

Smart touch-panel controls enable you to access information at the touch of a fingertip. Layouts are devised to enable instantaneous display of desired information, while detailed information easily can be called up with a touch of your fingertips.

Search screens

The wanted destination can be searched for in various ways and shown on the screen quickly. Searches are possible by known address, either by narrowing down from a country-by-country display or simply entering the destination with letters and numbers on the address input screen.

Change of map display and split screens

Display screens can be selected from 2D display, 3D display for enhanced recognition, or split-screen displays of 2D + 2D or 2D + 3D. Intelligent guidance is realised by means of showing your car’s position on a sub-display with intersection illustrations and direction names.

Changeable skin design
