While using the voice control system, all
of the speakers (except the RES
headphones) are muted.

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.
To view other areas on the map, move
the joystick left, right, up, or down. The
map will shift in that direction. To
return the map to your current location,
press either the MAP/GUIDE, the
CANCEL , or the NAVI BACK button
on the steering wheel. The display automati
cally changes to
the map screen when you reach your
destination. Press the MENU button to
return to the Enter destination by
screen.
