Edit Avoid Area
This function allows you to select areas
you wish to avoid when calculating a
route to your destination. You can select
up to five areas to avoid. You may wish
to set up an “avoid area” to route around
long-term road construction, closures,
or any area you wish to avoid. If you
enter a route that takes you through or
into an “avoid area,” a pop-up box will
warn you that your route takes you into
one of these areas. However, you can
still choose destinations in an avoided
area.
When you select Edit Avoid Area, the
following list screen is displayed. You can select
New Area, or select one
of your existing areas to modify. If you
choose New Area , the following screen
is displayed:
Say or select Edit Name, and use the
Interface Dial to enter the name on the
Enter avoid area name screen (25
characters max). Say or select OK to
return to the previous screen. Say or select Edit Area
to create the
area to be avoided. The following screen
appears:
Either select Address or Map Input
on the Enter avoid area by screen.
Each choice provides a slightly different
way to locate the approximate map
display for drawing the area you wish to
avoid.

select the map scale. Use the Interface
Dial to move the crosshairs (red circle)
to the desired start point and push in on
the Interface Dial to “set” the start
point. Then move the Interface Dial in
a straight or diagonal direction to
encompass the area to be avoided. NOTE:
The maximum size of the “Avoid area”
is 1/2 mile in length or width.

If your selected area contains a freeway,
the system will prompt you with a pop-
up box saying “Do you want to avoid
freeways?” Answering “No” allows you
to enter a route thro ugh an avoided area
on a freeway and skip the “Avoid area
caution box” (see Pop-ups and
Disclaimers on page72).
When you return to the Edit avoid area
screen, the “Area” field is automatically
filled in by the system. Re-edit the area
“Name” if desired. Select OK on the
Edit avoid area screen to finish editing.
Your new avoided ar ea will now appear
on the “Avoid area” list and be viewable

Edit Waypoint Search Area
When driving en route to your
destination, you can select a temporary
destination waypoint (marked with a
small flag on the map) along your route
for gas, a restaurant, or other POI.
When you resume your trip from the
waypoint, the system continues the trip
to your original des tination. To use this
feature, see Waypoint on page75.
This SETUP item allows you to select
the distance from your highlighted route
line (on either side of your route) that
the system will search for a waypoint.
From the Routing & Guidance screen,
select Edit Waypoint Search Area,
and then choose the desired search
distance for either “On Freeways” or
“On Surface Street.” The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for
“SEARCH ALONG” or “SEARCH
AROUND the Destination” (see
Waypoint
on page75). For “SEARCH ALONG,” the system
looks in front of you within a corridor
width specified by your values for “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.”
The system checks the upcoming area,
based on your input.
For “SEARCH AROUND,” the system
searches outwards in a spiral from the
destination. In this
case, specific search
values are not needed; the matches are
displayed in order of distance from
destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search
range used for the voice commands like
“Find nearest gas station” that are also
available when viewing the map screen.

Vehicle
From the SETUP screen ( Other), say
or select Vehicle and the following
screen appears:
Off-road Tracking
With this ON , the system will provide
white off-road tracking dots
(“breadcrumbs”) on the map screen
whenever you drive into an area where
the map does not show any roads. See
Map Screen Legend on page 20.After you have traveled approximately
1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the
system will display a series of white
dots on the map
screen to show the path
you have traveled. This is provided so
you can follow the dots to backtrack to
the mapped road you originally left.
Tracking continues until you reach a
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on
page 71.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile scales. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob to change the
scale if necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature
OFF and exit SETUP. To re-enable this
feature, return to SETUP and turn it on
again.
Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for
positioning inform ation. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dea d reckoning” to
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location.
If you choose to do this, follow these
steps:
