No arrow view on Sat Nav?

Hi guys

My E60 used to have an option where I could have just a simplified arrow view. This would show just which way to turn and when using an arrow only and would also display a roundabout when it came up indicating which exit to take.

I used the sat nav today and scrolled through the view options and there appears to be no arrow view.

Also when I approach a roundabout I see no symbol appear to show me which exit to take, only the voice instruction and the big full map.

Any help would be appreciated

It's in settings menu, also when you select "Dynamic mode" in navigation and you are going to a destination the pictures of next turns/roundabouts will be shown in the centre of the instrument cluster, you can revert to and from this by pressing the top button on the left hand stalk.
On split screen you can opt for "Arrow view".

Thanks John, I was sure I had scrolled through the split screen options but couldn't see 'arrow view' option.

I'll try again

John is spot on with his explanation, hope it falls in place for you Indus.

Other thing to say is that the arrow view graphics are way better and more detailed than previous generation media pro pack. Now on a par with latest Audi graphics for usefulness when approaching junctions etc
