Route Line
When driving on unverifi ed streets
(purple), the route line changes to either

Voice Guidance Prompts
As you get near the guidance point,
you will hear a voice reminder and
see a pop-up window showing you the
guidance point. You will typically hear
three prompts:
• The fi rst is about 1/2 mile from the
guidance point if you are traveling on
an ordinary road or street, or about 2
miles from the guidance point if you
are traveling on a freeway.
• The next is about 1/4 mile from the guidance point if you are traveling on
an ordinary road or street, or about 1
miles from the guidance point if you
are traveling on a freeway.
• The fi nal prompt is close to your
actual turn.
If the distance between the next two
guidance points is very small, both of
them are displayed on the screen in
a single window, and the voice will
remind you of them at the same time.

Distance and Time to
Destination
When you select a destination, the
distance to the destination is the actual
road distance of the calculated route,
and not “as the crow fl ies.” When
viewing a list of destinations (points
of interest), such as restaurants, the
distance is “as the crow fl ies” (see Sort
by Distance to Travel on page 41 ).
The displayed time to the destination
may differ from the actual travel time
because the time is calculated based
on the posted road speed data and your
current speed.
NOTE:
If you are en route and the Interface
Dial is moved, the “Time to
Destination” and “Distance to
Destination” indications are replaced
with an indicator showing distance
from the current vehicle location.

Current Location
Whenever you are on a map screen,
you can always obtain your current
location either by pushing in on the
Interface Dial , selecting Current
Location from Map Information , or
by using the voice control system and
saying “Display current location.” A

system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation
may not agree with elevations shown
on roadside elevation signs, and may
fl uctuate plus or minus 100 feet or more.
You can store the current location for
later use. It does not change or cancel
your current route.
For example, you are following
the system’s directions to get to a
destination. While sitting at a stoplight
you notice a store on the corner, but do
not have time to visit it right now.
You can save the location to select as a
destination at a later date. To save the location, say “Save current
location” or select Save on the
Current
location screen. The Edit address

interim “pit stop” while traveling to
a destination. For instance, you may
want to stop for gas or food, and then
continue on to your destination.
Although you can enter up to fi ve places
including the destination at a time,
typically you may never use more than
one at a time.
Waypoints are routed to in the order
they were entered (number 1 fi rst,
etc.), with your fi nal destination routed
to last.
When you enter waypoints, they appear
on the map screen as small red fl ags
numbered 1-4.
