ABSTRACT:
A vehicular navigation device for presenting a navigation content by continuing a predetermined inputting operation for navigation till the last step even if the used state changes. The navigation device comprises a presentation unit (6) for presenting a navigation content, a manual input unit (3) for receiving a plurality of inputting operations, a speech input unit (4) for receiving a speech input operation substantially identical to that of the manual input unit (3), a database (5) stored with data necessary for navigation, and a control unit (2) for providing the navigation content to the presentation unit (6) by searching the database (5) according to the inputting operation from the manual input unit (3) or the speech input unit (4). Depending on the used state of the navigation device (1), the control unit (2) switches the active state between the manual input unit (3) and the speech input unit (4) so as to continue the predetermined navigation search operation to the last step thereby to present the navigation contents.
