All Mio personal navigation devices include speed camera warning detection software, with the option to choose between visual and/or audio signals to warn you of any approaching cameras.

MioMap V3.3

Faster display, quicker route calculation, TMC support and speed (safety) camera warnings are only some of the new features of the MioMap v3. Don't take us on our word - have a look for yourself at the real-speed videos and real screenshots of this all-new navigation software.

The C520 comes with the latest Tele Atlas map (2007.1) of 22 countries of Europe already installed.

Traffic Message Channel (TMC) information

TMC gives your Mio C520t the capability to pick alternative routes to navigate you around traffic jams and hold-ups as you go. The TMC module is fully integrated in the cradle.

The TMC service delivers instant traffic and travel information direct to your Mio navigation device.

The information is broadcast via radio stations throughout Europe and the data integrates with Tele Atlas maps used by your Mio device.

In most European countries TMC information is provided free of charge.

Widescreen view of the world

The Mio C520 is based around its 4.3” widescreen. The new screen size makes this new device easier to use than ever.

Mio Splitscreen

The Mio C520 makes intelligent use of its widescreen. The screen enables you to see the full map view and a selection of route information aside from it.

It means that you can easily identify route information, such as points of interest, without quitting the navigation function.

You can choose the information to display:

Your next four manoeuvres
Local Points of Interest
Speed camera locations
Route and timing data
This unique ‘multi-tasking’ is one of the main advantages of Mio’s new MioMap v3.3 interface.

Simple, intuitive navigation

A crystal-clear touch screen, finger-sized buttons and new predictive keyboard make the C520 simple to use as well as easy to follow.
On-screen buttons and clever predictive keyboard make it easy to enter a destination, whether by name or full 7 digit postal code. Frequently used addresses can be stored in a list of favourites so you don't have to type them in every time, and you can also designate a shortcut button for your own address.

As you drive along, all the journey information you need is easy to see. Estimated time of arrival, distance, battery, TMC and signal status can all be viewed. You can also keep an eye on the speed you're travelling at and, just in case you need reminding, speed limits are also shown when available.

Speed Camera warnings

The Mio C520 tells you the likely locations for fixed and possible locations of mobile traps. You can choose between visual and/or audio signal to warn you.

You can download new speed camera locations from Mio website. The updates are free of charge for one year from the moment of your registration.

You can also indicate new speed camera locations on your device, and upload them to the database. You can even determine the direction of the speed camera.

Neither Action Replay nor Mio are responsible for errors or missing speed camera locations in the Mio database.

Get going quickly with SiRFstar III and new fast processor

The latest SiRFstar III GPS receiver picks up satellite signals faster and holds them better, and the 400Mhz processor helps you calculate your route more quickly; which means you can get on the road quicker.

The highly sensitive SiRFstar III GPS chipset can receive signals from up to 20 satellites for highly accurate positioning, even in the centre of a city or the middle of the countryside.

Hands-free calling with Bluetooth

Use the C520 for hands-free calling when combined with a Bluetooth™ enabled mobile phone.

Together with a Bluetooth™ mobile phone, the C520 allows you to keep your hands safely on the wheel whenever you're on the phone. It automatically switches from navigation to phone mode every time you receive a call.

Make calls and navigate directly to Outlook contacts

The C520 not only synchronises with Outlook™ Contacts on your desktop computer, it takes you straight to them.

With the C520, you never have to leave the office without your Outlook™ Contacts. But what makes life really easy is the ability to call or navigate directly to a contact. Just select the name and you'll be able to call them or navigate directly to their home or office. If you have their full address, including the official name of the street saved in Outlook™, of course.

Points of Interest

Arranged in easy to use categories, an impressive list of POIs comes ready to access.

The C520 is programmed with an extensive range of Points Of Interest (POI), arranged into easy to use categories such as  restaurants, hotels, petrol stations, cash machines, parking, shops etc.

Many of the POIs now include phone numbers. So now you can find the location of a good restaurant or hotel and phone ahead to make a reservation.

The C520 makes it easy to quickly look up POI’s close to your current location or those situated along your chosen route.

Choose the way you want to travel

You can use the C520 outside the car as well as inside it.

Thanks to the pedestrian mode, you can use the C520 to explore Great Britain on foot. It navigates as smoothly in the historical centre of York as on the motorway.

The C520 takes account of the way you want to travel on the road as well. Choose the type of vehicle you're using, the type of route you prefer, even the type of road.

After all, if you want to walk you'll probably want to take a different route to when you go by car or cycle. Whether you want to avoid toll roads, go by the quickest way possible or take the shortest route, the C520 shows you which way to go.

Lots of extras

When you're not navigating, you can use it to listen to your favourite music or to have a look through your latest photos.

The C520 is a navigation device, but it also offers a lot more than that. The SD/MMC memory card slot expansion slot means you can play all your stored music and look at your favourite snaps - or show them to other people.

On top of that, the currency converter will help make sure you aren't paying over the odds when you go abroad.

It's all wrapped in an impossibly slim and elegant design that's light enough to carry anywhere and small enough to fit in your pocket. With the C520, you'll get used to getting there in style.
