Super TestCar reviews - Ford - Falcon - SR sedanFord modelsSat Nav19 Nov 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON SATELLITE navigation is available across the Falcon range. The dealer-fit system available for the SR has a black and white screen and single-speaker audio instructions, while a factory-fitted 12.8cm colour monitor that fits into a dedicated dash panel is now standard on LTD and optional on Fairlane Ghia, Fairmont Ghia and Fairmont. It is a Carin system that uses global positioning to pinpoint the location of the vehicle. Position accuracy is said to be delivered within 30 metres, even during extended periods without GPS reception. The system is designed to be menu-driven, allowing the driver to operate it without referral to an operating manual. The monitor displays simple images to the driver as well as a map of the current destination from a scale of 100 metres to 100km, and a voice provides simple guidance instructions, making allowances for speed and proximity to turn or lane change.
