Entering the Street Number
After 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 syst em will show this
number as unavailable (grayed out).
 When using the on-screen keyboard, the system only a llows 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
page45).
Tip:
If the particular address you want
cannot be found, select Map Input and
use the joystick to se lect the appropriate
location on the map (see By Map Input
on page36).
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
