Changing the Route
While on 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 present route, you can
do any of the following:
Say “Menu,” or press the MENU button
to view the Change route by screen:
 Add a waypoint or pit stop (page63).
 Delete waypoints (page64)
 Avoid a certain street or streets (page64).
 Detour (page64).
 Change routing method (page64).
 Cancel the current route (page65).
 Back to the current route (page65). Choose a different destination (other
methods):
 Saying, “Find nearest...” to find a POI
(page65).
 Saying, “Go home” (page65).
 Using the joystick to select a different POI or address on the map (page65).
Pressing the MENU button twice to get to the Enter destination by
screen (page66).
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 page40).
