names of two intersecting streets in a
city. This is useful if you know the

not the exact address. Places
(see page 31)
The system has been programmed with
the locations of many businesses, parks,
hospitals, etc. This selection lets you
search these by category, name, or
phone number.
Map Input (see page 36)

destination on th e map using the
joystick. This allows you to enter a
destination or address that may not be
listed in the database.
Previous Destinations (see page 40)
When you enter a destination with any
of the available se lections (except
Address Book and Go Home), the
last 50 destinations are saved by the
system. Use this selection to choose a
destination again.

By Address
After you select Address from the
Enter destination by screen, the
display changes to:
Tip:
When entering an address by voice, it is more efficient to say the city name
first, then the street name.
When entering an address by touch, it is usually easier to enter the street
first. A city or cities that the street
appears in will be displayed. For
your convenience, you do not have to
enter both city and street. NOTE:
If you find that your city is not listed,
it may be part of a larger
metropolitan area. Try entering the
street first.
Prior to departure, you can set areas to avoid. The system then includes
them in its calculations for the
destination you have entered. See
Edit Avoid Area on page 87.
Selecting the State or Province
The state you are in is displayed at the
top of the screen. If your desired
destination is in another state, select
Change State.
The display then changes to the Enter
state name screen. Use the voice
control system and say the name of the
state or use the on-s creen keyboard to
enter the name of the state.
Selecting the City
This is helpful if the street runs through
several cities, and you know what city
includes the street. The city you are in is
displayed on the screen. If the city you
want is displayed on the screen, say
“Select current city.” If your desired
destination is in a nother city, say or
enter that city.
By Voice Control:
Say “City” on the Find address by
screen, and the display changes to the
Say city name screen. Say the city
name and the searching will begin.
NOTE:
To improve voice recognition when
saying the city name, pronounce the
syllables as clearly as possible.
Entering a Destination

Navigation System23
To enter the city name by voice spelling,
say or select CHANGE TO Spell
Mode on the Say city name screen,
and the display will change to the Enter
city name screen. Say the city name by
saying individual letters, or words that
represent the letters, one at a time. The system has a talk back function. If
your spoken letter is
not recognized, the
system will talk back to you. For
example, if you say “E” but the system
does not recognize the command, it will
ask you, “Please select the number of
the input letter from the list,” and the
following pop-up box will appear:
You should select a letter by saying the
number.
Alternatively, to improve voice
recognition, you can say “Echo” or
“Edward” instead of “E.”
See page 15 for a list of available words
for each letter.By Touch Control:
Select City, and the display then
changes to the Enter city name screen.
Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the
name of the city.
The system will display a list of city
names, with the closest match to the
name you entered at the top of the list.
Select the number (1-6) of the desired
city from the list.

24Navigation System
If the system does not find an exact
match, select List when you finish
entering the name of the city. Most of
the cities and towns for that state are
listed.
Listings of cities and towns in the non-
detailed coverage area may have an
asterisk “*” next to their names. If you
select one, a pop-up box is displayed
saying, “No detailed street data...”, and
a street address cannot be entered (see
Map Coverage on page 108). Try
entering the street fi rst, and then select
the city if available.
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 city will be selected. If
you select a point of interest (POI) or
road in an unverified area, you may or
may not have routing in these areas. See
Map Overview on page 6.Selecting the Street

The system has a talk back function. If
your spoken letter is not recognized, the
system will talk back to you. For
example, if you say “E” but the system
does not recognize the command, it will
ask you, “Please select the number of

Alternatively, to improve voice
recognition, you can say “Echo” or

See page 15 for a list of available words
for each letter.By Touch Control:
After you have selected the city, or if
you selected Street in the beginning,
the display changes to the Enter street
name screen. Use the on-screen
keyboard to enter the name of the street
(like ELM or 42ND) that is your
destination.
To enter the name of a major highway,
you must use the full name, including a
hyphen. For interstates, use an “I” (I-
10). For U.S. highways, use “US” (US-
18). For state highways, use the two
character state designation (CA-101).
For county roads, use the appropriate
designation (G-2, for example).
Tip:
When entering a street, you do not need
to enter the direction (N, S, E, W) or the
type (St, Ave, etc.). The system will
automatically determine that for you,
based on your entered city and street
number. The system will display a list of street
names, with the closest match to the
name you entered at the top of the list.
Select the number (1-6) of the desired
street from the list.
Entering a Destination

26Navigation System
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 th e 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 system will show this
number as unavailable (grayed out).
• When using the on-screen keyboard, the system only allows 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
page 45).
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 page 36).
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
you select a point of interest (POI) or
road in an unverified area, you may or
may not have routing in these areas. See
