Hi from Big Al
20. Aug 2006 at 08:09
 
Hi there, have just got my first omega. It's an S reg. 3.0i Elite. Have had lots of Cavvies & an Astra over the years. What a brilliant motor this is, I love it. I am still sorting how to operate everything but have a prob with the Sat Nav, as no instuctions or a manual on how to operate were supplied. Can anyone help please. Great site will be a constant user now that I have found you.   Cheers Guys,  Regards, Big Al  (Southend, Essex)

Welcome Big Al Cheesy - you are our 200th member Cheesy

About the Sat Nav, can you start a new post under ICE/Electrical section, and state what one it is (ie Carin fitted to prefacelift cars, or the NCDC2000 type fitted to later ones).  I have a Carin manual somewhere.

Welcome Al.  Cheesy

The Carin Sat Nav (yours is an S reg so will have this system) is controlled by the black knob on the centre console, near the handbrake. Push or turn to access features.
A pretty basic system by todays standards, but it works...
