60Navigation System
For instance, let’s assume that hospital icons are not displayed on the map. You would do the following:
• First, you would ensure that the OTHER ICON button on the Icon bar is blue (see Icon Bar on page 59).
• Second, you select Icon Options and verify that hospital option is also on (blue). This procedure is explained below.
If you select Other Icons from the Select category for icon settings screen, the other icons options are displayed:
In the previous example, POST OFFICE and SCHOOL are selected and will show up on the map. To also see HOSPITAL on the map, this would need to be turned on to select it so it appears as below.
Exit, and save your settings by selecting Done .
NOTE:
When viewing the map screen, you can turn some icons on using voice control. See Navigation Display Commands on page 141 for the available “Display” and “Hide” icon command.

Driving to Your Destination
Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route, “Recalculating...” is displayed at the top of the screen. The system will recalculate the route from your current location and direction to the desired destination, and then give you a new route instruction. This is done automatically if you have set Rerouting to Automatic on the Setup screen (second) (see page 84).
If the Rerouting option in Setup is set to Manual, “Off route” appears at the top of the screen when you leave the calculated route. Sa y “Recalculate” or select Recalculation whenever you wish the system to perform a recalculation.
Off-road Tracking
If you drive more than half a mile from a mapped road, “Not on a digitized road” appears at the bottom of the screen.
The map screen starts displaying a series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the path you have taken if Off-road Tracking on the Setup screen (second) is set to On (see page 92).
By following the dots, you can backtrack to the mapped road you originally left. “Breadcrumbs” may occasionally be displayed in urban areas, such as large parking lots in shopping malls, or in new subdivisions where the roads are not yet in the database. In other cases, you may see dots if the system temporarily goes off route, like in a parking garage where the GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 mile (or 80, 200, 400, and 800 meter) map scales.Use the ZOOM buttons to change scales if necessary.
Tracking continues for approximately 150 miles; dots at the beginning of the trail will start disappearing when you exceed that distance . When you reach a mapped road, th e system stops displaying dots.

62Navigation System
Viewing/Saving the Current
Location
Whenever you are on a map screen, you can always obtain your current location either by touching the Vehicle Position icon or by using the voice control system and saying “Display current location.” A screen pops up which shows the address of your current location, as well as the latitude, longitude, and elevation.
NOTE:
The elevation will not appear when the system is temporarily lacking proper GPS information. The system elevation may not agree with elevations shown on roadside elevation signs, and may fluctuate 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 screen. When you select “User 1” or “User 2,” the Edit address book screen with the current location data will appear. You can edit the name, phone number, or category name to be saved in your personal Address Book.
After the location is saved, select Return to return to the map screen. You can then use Address Book from the Enter destination by screen to select the saved location and return to the same spot.

• Your route takes you into an area that you previously set as an “Avoid Area” (see Edit Avoid Area on page 89).
• Your route passes near an unverified area (see Unverified Area Routing on page 85).
• Your route includes unverified areas (see Unverified Area Routing on page 85).

64Navigation System
Changing the Route
While en route, you may wish to alter your route, add an interim “Waypoint” (pit stop), choose a different destination, or cancel your current destination.
To change your pres ent route, you can do any of the following:
Say “Menu,” or press the MENU button to view the Change route by screen:
• Search waypoint (page 64)
• Delete waypoint (page 66)
• Avoid streets (page 66)
• Detour (page 66)
• Change routing method (page 66)
• Cancel the current route (page 67)
• Back to the current route (page 67)
Choose a different destination (other methods) by:
• Saying “Find nearest...” to find a POI (page 67).
• Saying “Go home” (page 67).
• Using the joystick to select a different POI or address on the map (page 67).
•Pressing the MENU button twice to get to the Enter destination by screen (page 69).
Change Route By Screen
Pressing the MENU button displays the Change route by screen:
Waypoints
Waypoints allow you to add an interim “pit stop” while traveling to a destination. For inst ance, you may want to stop for gas or food, and then continue on to your destination. Although you can enter up to five waypoints 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 first, etc.), with your final destination routed to last. If you wish to create a custom route of several destinations , and then control the order of routing, the function “Today’s Destinations” is probably a better choice (see By Today’s Destinations on page 42).

When you enter waypoints, they appear on the map screen as small red flags numbered 1-5.
Adding Waypoints
From the Change route by screen, if you say or select Search Places on Route , then the Select a search method screen is displayed. Select either Places Along the Route or Places Around the Destination .
Next, select your “Waypoint Category,” then follow the menu prompts to select a destination. When the system performs a search from Places Along the Route , it displays matches that lie within a corridor on either side and in front of you along your route.
From Places Around the Destination , the system displays matches in a spiral pattern outward from the destination. Th e search “corridor” distance value can be changed in Edit Waypoint Search Area in Setup (see page 91).
To add another waypoint, press the MENU button and repeat the procedure. If Search Places on Route is grayed out, the maximum of five waypoints has been entered.
NOTE:
The system does not allow you to select the roads you want to use to get to a destination. However, after you enter a destination, you can select intersections or POI waypoints that the system will use to tailor your route.

From the Change route by screen, if you say “Delete” or select Delete, then the Select a waypoint to delete screen is displayed. Say the line number of the waypoint(s) you wish to delete, or select them by using the joystick. Say or select Done to return to the map screen.
The route is recalculated to reflect the changes you made to the waypoint(s).
Reroute: Avoid Streets
From the Change route by screen, if you say or select Avoid Streets, the system displays a list of streets that will get you to your destination. This feature allows you to avoid a street or streets along your route. This is helpful if you know of road construction, closures, or excessive traffic along the route. Simply select the street or streets you wish to avoid. You cannot avoid your current street, or the streets of your waypoint(s) or destination (system beeps if selected).
NOTE:
Although you can choose streets to avoid, you cannot choose specific streets you want to use.
Reroute: Detour
Calculates a detour route for you if you encounter an unexp ected obstacle such as a closed road or extremely heavy traffic congestion. If a detour is selected, the system will attempt to recalculate a new route, avoiding the next 2 miles (while on a freeway) or 1/2 mile (while on a surface street).
Reroute: Change Routing
