Lovely Car But More Advice Needed

Avis the rental company provided a lovely car including sat nav but a short guide to its use and that of some of the key features of the car in english would have been very useful for this customer. we had to ask a number of locals for guidance and only for that we might not have figured out the functions of the sat nav.
