Search the threads and the manual.. maybe i missed it, is there a way to turn that bong/bing sound, before it announces the direction to take ?

I can't find anything specific to the "bong" sound, but there is an option to turn off the "Voice Guidance". I wonder if that will turn off the bong as well.

Yes, that turns everything off... the bong is the annoying thing.. it'll wake the baby up faster than the actual voice..

Speaking of the bing sound, it reminds everyone who gets in my car as if they are sitting in an airplane.

Maybe it's just me, but I love that bing/bong sound before the next guidance.
