Guidance Screen
The guidance screen offers an alternative
way to view your route information.
Many of the icons and screen features are
similar to those on the
map screen. While
driving to your destination, press the
MAP/GUIDE button to switch between
the map and guidance screens. The guidance screen shows you:
Milestone to Destination – The
position of the small circular icon shows
your trip progress. As you get closer to
your destination, the indicator will
approach “DEST.”
Vehicle Heading – The white portion of
the compass symbol indicates north.
NOTE:
The map and voice guidance in unverified areas differ from those in
verified areas.
Current maneuvers and those within 1000 feet will show on the
Countdown bar, indicating the
distance until the next maneuver.

Driving to Your Destination
Distance and Time to
Destination
When you select a destination, the
distance to the destination is the actual
road distance of the calculated route,
and not “as the crow flies.” When
viewing a list of destinations (points of
interest), such as restaurants, the
distance is “as the crow flies” (see Sort
by Distance to Travel on page35).
The displayed time to the destination
may differ from the actual travel time
because the time is calculated based on
the posted road speed data and your
current speed. If part of your route
includes unverified roads, the “distance”
and “time to go” for that portion is
estimated using 25 mph as an average
speed.
Direction List
When you press the MAP/GUIDE
button on the guidance screen, the
display changes to:
NOTE:
The map and voice guidance in unverified areas differ from those in
verified areas. See Unverified Area
Routing on page 83.
Only maneuvers that occur at freeway exits or contain freeway exit
information will show the exit info
icon ( ) on the right end of the
items in the Direction list. If no exit
info icon is shown on the list, the Exit
Info. is grayed out. You can see the Direction list and the
distance to each maneuver. Press the
MAP/GUIDE button to return to the
previous screen.
You can scroll through the
Direction
list screen by screen using the scroll bar,
or one instruction at a time using the
joystick.

Exit Info. (Freeway Exit
Information)
You can search freeway exit
information and add new destinations or
waypoints to the calculated route as a
new destination or waypoint. The exit
info icon ( ) on the right end of the
items in the direction list indicates that
there is freeway exit information
available. Say or select Exit Info., and
choose the exit and place to set as a new
destination or waypoint.
On the map screen, you can display
freeway exit information using the
joystick. The exit info icon will only be
displayed on the map screen if there is
any freeway exit information available.
Choose the 1/4, 1/2, or 1 mile scale, then
move the crosshairs to the desired exit
info icon and click on it. Choose a place
from the list and set it as a new
destination or waypoint.
NOTE:
To turn on “Freeway exit information”
on the map screen, display the icon bar
and select the icon (see page 58).
Guidance Mode
When en route to a destination, you
have two display options: single-screen
mode (the factory default) and split-
screen mode.
Single-screen mode – A map is
displayed with occasional guidance
pop-up windows as you approach a
maneuver.
Split-screen mode – The map is always
displayed on the left of the screen, and
the maneuver or direction list is
displayed on the right-hand side of the
screen.
Guidance mode can be changed in either
Setup (see Guidance Mode on page 90),
or by accessing the icon bar
(see Guidance Mode on page 58) . When you get near the maneuver, the
map
screen changes to:
On the map screen, the location of the
maneuver is marked with a small yellow
square. The guidance window is simply
an enlargement of th e area indicated by
the yellow square. After you complete
the maneuver, the display returns to a
full map screen when the single-screen
mode is set, or to a map and direction
list screen when the split-screen mode is
set.

Map Scale
Use the ZOOM buttons or say a voice command such as “Display 1/2 m ile scale” (see page139) to change the scale of the map.
Zooming in increases the detail, while zooming out gives you a vi ew of a wider area. After changing the scale, give the system a
few moments to update the display.

You can change between miles or kilometers in Setup (see Units on page 92).

Navigation System55
Map Orientation
The map can be orientated two ways:
• North-up: North pointing up as you
would normally view a paper map.
• Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on
always points up (as you see the road
through your front windshield).
NOTE:
The red arrow in both heading symbols
always shows the direction north. Touch the Map Orientation icon on the
map
screen to switch between the
available orientation, or say “Display
heading up” or “Display north up.”
In the larger map scales (above
1 mile or 1.6 kilometer), the map is
always oriented with north facing
upward. You cannot change the
orientation.
NOTE:
For information on the available voice
commands, see Voice Command Index
on page 138.
Destination Icon
The destination icon only shows the
approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can
have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed
by the 1500 block). Most cities use only
a portion of the 100 possible addresses
(for example, in the 1400 block, the
addresses may only go up to 1425
before the 1500 block starts). Therefore,
the address 1425 will be shown a
quarter of the way down the block by
the system instead of near the end of the
block where the destination is actually
located.
Tip:
When en route, you can view a map
showing your destination. Using voice
control, say “Display destination map.”

Navigation System59
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 58).
• 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 139 for the available
“Display” and “Hide” icon
command.

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 82).
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 90). 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 the 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.
