Navigation system
The Basic Navigation System (BNS) is a simple and functional integrated navigation system produced between 1998 and 2003. It uses a monochrome display in the onboard computer (FIS), supplemented by voice instructions.
Routes are calculated from mapping CDs, and commands pass through the Chorus/Concert radio block. Minimalist but effective, it offers a discreet and integrated navigation aid, long before the era of touch-sensitive GPS.
