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.

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).
