Navigation Flashing Ring around position

Recommended Posts

I have searched the forum and the user manual and even talked to the sync tech support (though I don't think tech support is the right term for their call line) and tried to find the answer.  Around the red triangle that shows the cars position there is a small silver ring that flashes constantly.  I am wondering if anyone knows two things:

 

1)  Why is it flashing constantly?

 

2)  Is there any way on this great planet to turn the flashing circle feature off?

 

I am new to the forum, appreciate any help you guys might be able to provide.  Are there any mods available other than the wallpaper?

 

Thanks

Hi Recce93,

 

We had a brief discussion on this forum about this about a year ago . It is posted in this same topic, just keep looking at the older postings. Here is a video that explains the blinking ring, but unfortunately you can't turn it off.

Hi Recce93, 

 

The circle is constantly blinking so it's easier to see at a glance, and there is no way to turn it off. Hope that helps!

Do you see these rings all the time? The range rings appear to indicate the distance that the car can go in EV only. That is the only time I see them on my Energi when I am on a low EV charge. I really do not know how accurate they are for that distance. For the most part I either do not use navigation since I know where I am at or I do not get a low charge. Before you know it the rings will just be in the background. Hope this helps.
