city (and possibly the province) and the 
address that you want to go to.

This selection allows you to enter the 
names of two intersecting streets in a 
city. This is useful if you know the 
general location of your destination, but 
not the exact address.Places (see page 31)
The system has been programmed with 
the locations of many businesses, parks, 
hospitals, etc. This selection lets you 
search these by category, name, or 
phone number.
Map Input (see page 36)
This selection allows you to point to a 
destination on the map using the 
joystick. This allows you to enter a 
destination or address that may not be 
listed in the database.
Previous Destinations (see page 40)
When you enter a destination with any 
of the available selections (except 
Address Book and Go Home), the 
last 50 destinations are saved by the 
system. Use this selection to choose a 
destination again.
NOTE:
If Previous Destinations is grayed 
out, there are no Previous Destinations

You can enter and sort up to five 
destinations and store them in the

By AddressAfter you select Address from the 
Enter destination by screen, the 
display changes to:
Tip:
• When entering an address by voice, it 
is more efficient to say the city name 
first, then the street name.
• When entering an address by touch, it 
is usually easier to enter the street 
first. A city or cities that the street 
appears in will be displayed. For 
your convenience, you do not have to 
enter both city and street.NOTE:
• If you find that your city is not listed, 
it may be part of a larger 
metropolitan area. Try entering the 
street first.
• Prior to departure, you can set areas 
to avoid. The system then includes 
them in its calculations for the 
destination you have entered. See 
Edit Avoid Area on page 87.
Selecting the Province or StateThe province you are in is displayed at 
the top of the screen. If your desired 
destination is in another province, select 
Change State.
The display then changes to the Enter 
state/province name screen. Use the 
voice control system and say the name 
of the province or use the on-screen 
keyboard to enter the name of the 
province.
Selecting the CityThis is helpful if the street runs through 
several cities, and you know what city 
includes the street. The city you are in is 
displayed on the screen. If your desired 
destination is in another city, say or 
enter that city.By Voice Control:Say “City” on the Find address by 
screen, and the display changes to the 
Enter city name screen. Say the city 
name by saying individual letters, or 
words that represent the letters, one at a 
time.

Navigation System
The system has a talk back function. If 
your spoken letter is not recognized, the 
system will talk back to you. For 
example, if you say “E” but the system 
does not recognize the command, it will 
ask you, “Please select the number of 
the input letter from the list,” and the 
following pop-up box will appear:
You should select a letter by saying the 
number.
Alternatively, to improve voice 
recognition, you can say “Echo” or 
“Edward” instead of “E.”
See page 15 for a list of available words 
for each letter.
By Touch Control:Select City, and the display then 
changes to the Enter city name screen. 
Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the 
name of the city.
The system will display a list of city 
names, with the closest match to the 
name you entered at the top of the list. 
Select the number (1-6) of the desired 
city from the list.If the system does not find an exact 
match, select List when you finish 
entering the name of the city. Most of 
the cities and towns for that province are 
listed.
Listings of cities and towns in the non-
detailed coverage area may have an 
asterisk “*” next to their names. If you 
select one, a pop-up box is displayed 
saying, “No detailed street data…”, and 
a street address cannot be entered (see 
Map Coverage on page 107). Try 
entering the street first, and then select 
the city if available.
Select View Dest. Map and use the 
joystick to select an icon, approximate 
area, or street you wish to choose as 
your destination. Otherwise, a central 
location of the city will be selected. If 
you select a point of interest (POI) or 
road in an unverified area, you may or 
may not have routing in these areas. See 
Map Overview on page 6.

Selecting the Street
By Voice Control:After you have selected the city, or if 
you say “Street” on the Find address 
by screen, the display changes to the 
Enter street name screen. Say the 
street name by saying individual letters 
or numbers, or words that represent the 
letters, one at a time.The system has a talk back function. If 
your spoken letter is not recognized, the 
system will talk back to you. For 
example, if you say “E” but the system 
does not recognize the command, it will 
ask you, “Please select the number of 
the input letter from the list,” and the 
following pop-up box will appear:
You should select a letter by saying the 
number.
Alternatively, to improve voice 
recognition, you can say “Echo” or 
“Edward” instead of “E.”
See page 15 for a list of available words 
for each letter.
By Touch Control:After you have selected the city, or if 
you selected Street in the beginning, 
the display changes to the Enter street 
name screen. Use the on-screen 
keyboard to enter the name of the street 
(like ELM or 42ND) that is your 
destination.
To enter the name of a major highway, 
you must use the full name, including a 
hyphen. For Trans-Canada and 
Provincial highways, use “Hwy” 
(HWY-7). For Country roads, use “CR” 
(CR-32). For Regional Roads, “RR” 
(RR-5). For interstates, use an “I” (I-
10). For U.S. highways, use “US” (US-

Navigation System
Tip:
When entering a street, you do not need 
to enter the direction (N, S, E, W) or the 
type (St, Ave, etc.). The system will 
automatically determine that for you, 
based on your entered city and street 
number.
The system will display a list of street 
names, with the closest match to the 
name you entered at the top of the list. 
Select the number (1-6) of the desired 
street from the list.
Entering the Street NumberAfter you have completed the street 
name, the display changes to the Enter 
street number screen. Use the voice 
control system and say the address 
number as a continuous string of 
numbers. For example, the address 1527 
should be spoken as “One, five, two, 
seven.” You can also use the on-screen 
keyboard to enter the street number.
Some address numbers may not be 
available on the selected street. For 
example, let’s say the individual address 
ranges for a selected street name are 
1 - 20 and 9,000 - 10,000, with an 
overall range shown on the display of 1 
to 10,000. If you try to enter a number 
outside the individual address ranges 
such as 500, the system will show this 
number as unavailable (grayed out).
• When using the on-screen keyboard, 
the system only allows you to choose 
available address numbers.
• When using voice control, the system 
beeps if you try to select an 
unavailable (grayed out) address 
number.If you did not select a city in the 
beginning, the street name you selected 
might appear in more than one city. The 
system will give you a list of cities that 
the street appears in. Select the desired 
city from the list. The system then 
displays the Calculate route to screen 
(see Driving to Your Destination on 
page 45).
Tip:
If the particular address you want 
cannot be found, select Map Input and 
use the joystick to select the appropriate 
location on the map (see By Map Input 
on page 36).
Select View Dest. Map and use the 
joystick to select an icon, approximate 
area, or street you wish to choose as 
your destination. Otherwise, a central 
location of the street will be selected. If 
you select a point of interest (POI) or 
road in an unverified area, you may or 
may not have routing in these areas. See
