Sat Nav - Lurcher - 16-10-2015 04:38pm
Picked up our June 2015 Pure Tech last night and today was getting used to the controls/settings etc , new to LR Sat Navs and was trying to add our post code to set the home destination and all the lettering was greyed out , only the number were available .
Managed to set it by using the location/map option but cant work out why I cant put post codes in like I used to do with a TomTom .
Any ideas ?
Thanks

If it's anything like the one I had in my Freelander, you have to leave a space between the first and second part of the postcode.

steve is correct you need a space also two spaces on very short codes. there is a box that offers more,dont know if you need to press it.

Whatever you do don't programme your home postcode into the "home " button of the satnav just put your address in as one of the other destinations............... If your car gets stolen away from home or one of the staff at an airport offsite long term car park decides to be dishonest then the car will take them straight back to an unoccupied house. If you need to have guidance right to your front door then put in the postcode of a nearby shop or police station. You could even put in the postcode of your Land Rover dealer as I'm sure that you know your way home from any of those destinations!

Good point made , I put the main road on to our estate not the actual address .

Is it your home destination you are trying to set or is it any other destination?
RE: Sat Nav - Lurcher - 25-10-2015 05:17pm
Just any other destination Steve .

Just went out to look at mine and when I choose postcode it all seems 'normal' on mine - letters then first number(s) then space then second number(s) then letters again. Sorry. Perhaps mine is different to yours though - I have a 2012 model with the upgraded stereo and dual view screen. Perhaps the satnav display is different on mine? Whatever, I bet it's something silly and you'll kick yourself when you find out what it is!
