Maps This section includes basic information that you need to
know about the map database.
The maps are stored on a DVD. The United States,
Canada, and Puerto Rico are contained on one disc.
Detailed Areas Road network attributes are contained in the
map database for detailed areas. Attributes include
information such as street names, street address,
turn restrictions, etc. A detailed area includes all
major highways, service roads, and residential roads.
The detailed areas include points of interest (POI) such
as: restaurants, airports, banks, hospitals, police stations,
gas stations, tourist attractions, historical monuments,
etc. The map database may not include data for newly
constructed areas or map database corrections that are
completed after the production of the disc. The navigation
system provides full route guidance in the detailed map
areas.

Limited Guidance Areas Any area that is not classied as detailed, is a limited
guidance area. Limited guidance streets are displayed on
the map but route guidance may not be given on these
streets. Some POI categories, such as the city center POI
category, and some street addresses are included in the
limited guidance areas.
The navigation system informs through voice prompts
when you are traveling into a limited guidance area
where route guidance is not available. The street maps
and the directional arrow displayed on the navigation
system can then be used to determine the remaining
route to your destination.

player seeking through different tracks. This is normal
operation and may occur more frequently with the use
of XM NavTraffic.
