mute nav announcements?
think the answer's "no", but on the MY17 Sensus Connect, can I mute nav announcements if I already know the turn and would rather listen to radio?
can't find it in the manual...

Alternatively, mute the radio while the nav is speaking. The difficulty with doing it this way is trying to judge when the nav would have been talking to switch it back on again.

You know you know a route backwards, but there are accidents, closures etc and if you get an early alert you can divert. That's when it gets really annoying....On my Seat I could press the volume wheel if a nav announcement came on, and it would mute it, leaving the radio/USB whatever. Don't think the volvo does....

It doesn't mute the radio, only the nav.when the nav is speaking.

I get annoyed by repeated (verbal) traffic alerts.

I always seem to time the most interesting/critical part of the Radio 4 transmission just as i get the "speed camera" bing-bong on my way to work.

In my MY15 V60 I have found that a Sensus Sat Nav announcement can be stopped by pressing the exit button on the steering wheel.
The exit button only stops the current announcement and subsequent announcements are made as normal. The exit button becomes second nature pretty quickly and I can cancel a Sat Nav announcement without losing anything significant from an interview or news story. Hopefully that will work for you.

Ignore me. I'm sure this used to work for me, but trying it again this morning I discovered I was taking carp!
