Driving to Your Destination
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.) Since 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 System71
Driving to Your Destination
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 then give you a new route
instruction. This is done automatically if
you have set Rerouting to
AUTOMATIC on the SETUP screen
(Other ) (see page 100).
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
want the system to perform a
recalculation.
Off-road Tracking
If you drive away 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
(Other ) is set to ON (see page 109). 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 map scales. Rotate the
Interface
Dial knob to change scales if
necessary.
Off-road 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, the system stops displaying dots.

Detour
Calculates a detour route for you if you

next 5 miles (while on a freeway) or 1
mile (while on a surface street).
Avoid Streets
From the DEST screen ( Route), if you
say or select Avoid Streets , the
system displays a list of streets that will
get you to your destination. This feature

along your route. This is helpful if you
know of road construction, closures, or
excessive traffic along the route.
Simply select the st reet or streets you
wish to avoid. You can store up to 10
streets to be avoided. You cannot avoid
your current street or the streets of your
waypoint(s) or destination (system

Navigation System75
Driving to Your Destination
Waypoint
Waypoints allow you to add an interim
“pit stop” while traveling to a
destination. For instance, you may want
to stop for gas or food, and then
continue on to your destination.
Although you can enter up to five places
including the destination 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.
When you enter waypoi nts, they appear
on the map screen as small red flags
numbered 1-4.
Adding Waypoint
From the DEST screen ( Route), if you
say or select Waypoint, the Add
waypoint screen is displayed.
Select either SEARCH AROUND or
SEARCH ALONG by rotating
Interface Dial knob. Next, select the category from the
“Main” or “Fav. Subcategory” tab on
the Category
screen, then follow the
menu prompts to select a destination.
When the system performs a search
from SEARCH ALONG , it displays
matches that lie within a corridor on
either side and in front of your route.
From SEARCH AROUND , the system
displays matches that are a uniform
distance from the departure point/
waypoint/destination.
The search “corridor” distance value
can be changed in Edit Waypoint
Search Area in SETUP (see
page 107).
