Unveri ed Area Routing
Allows you to receive turn-by-turn map and voice guidance in unverifi ed areas when en route to a destination (see Map
Overview on page
6
). The chart below illustrates the routing differences with this setting ON or OFF.
Unverifi ed Area Routing: OFF (factor y default) Unverifi ed Area Routing: ON
Decision:
Why choose
ON or OFF? The driver wishes to navigate manually by using the
navigation map and choosing the streets that lead to the
destination. The driver understands that unverifi
ed roads
may not be accurate, and can contain errors in location,
naming, and address range. The driver chooses to let the navigation system suggest
possible routing. The driver understands that in some cases
guidance may not be appropriate. Unverifi
ed roads may not
be accurate, and can contain errors in location, naming, and
address range.
What you will
see... A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that
continually points to your destination. The driver should
stop and then use the map to select streets that lead to the
destination. A blue-pink dashed route line highlights suggested
unverifi
ed streets on the map while traveling to your
destination. This is in sharp contrast to the normal blue
route line displayed in verifi ed areas.
Cautionary
messages There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These serve as
reminders that you should obey all traffi
c restrictions. There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These serve as
reminders that you should exercise additional caution, and
obey all traffi
c restrictions.
Guidance
(map /voice) There is no turn-by-turn map or voice guidance. Voice guidance commands end with the words “if possible.”
This is to remind the driver to verify all traffi c restrictions
before making a maneuver.
Directions list A direction list is typically not available. However,
depending on your route, directions are provided to help you
reach the fi
rst available verifi ed road. A direction list is provided showing street names and turn
symbols in pink.

Unverifi ed Area Routing
When driving to your destination, you
have the choice of using or not using
“unverifi ed” roads. You make this
choice in the SET UP screen. The next
few pages contain an example of a route
to a destination in an unverifi ed area
explaining the routing differences found
in unverifi ed areas.
With Unveri ed Area Routing OFF ,
the system tries to use verifi ed roads
whenever possible. In this example,
since only verifi ed streets are used, it
created a longer route than necessary.
With Unveri ed Area Routing
ON , the route is shorter, but consists
of unverifi ed (purple) streets that may
not be accurate. Because the streets are
unverifi ed, there may be errors in street
location, name, or address range.
Additional caution is recommended in
these areas. Always obey posted traffi c
restrictions. Because both routes bypass or use
unverifi
ed streets, it is recommended
that you stop and review the map.
Unveri ed Area Routing “OFF” Unveri ed Area Routing “ON”
NOTE:
Unverifi ed roads are shown only when
viewing the map in the 1/20, 1/ 8, 1/4
mile map scales, or the 80, 200, 400
meter map scales.
