Hi fellow Volvo people - nice to be here!

I've just acquired a 2015 V40 CC 2 litre auto T5, which has recently been imported from Japan (via a specialist importer here in the UK).

It's in great condition, if a little high on the mileage (88,000), which is fine because I don't travel more than a few thousand per year.

SatNav is, however, an issue (there are no others that I'm aware of, and all the other screens/menus work well), inasmuch as there's no menu to enter an address, street, city or postcode.

I have the latest software (installed twice, once by the importers and again by a Volvo dealer), it's all reading correctly in English (with a few Japanese characters on the "wheel"), but the only way I can programme it to get me anywhere is by inputting (wait for it) a LANDline 'phone number, or a point-on-the-map!

Anyone with any thoughts/ideas, please let me know.

Many thanks...
