To enter map mode:
1. Ensure that the system is on.
2. Press the MAP hard button on the navigation system. The map screen
will display.
When in MAP mode, an icon appears on the upper left side of the
screen; this is a toggle button to change the view of the map displayed.
The following methods exist for orientation of the map:
•Heading up:In this mode, the
direction of forward travel is
always the upward direction on
screen. Available for map scales up to 2.5 mi /5km. For scales above
that, the setting for Heading-Up is remembered, but the map is shown
in North-Up only. If the scale returns below this level, then the
Heading-Up setting is restored.
•North up:In this mode, the
Northern Direction is always the
upward direction on screen.
MAP SCALE
The map display scale on the map
has 17 levels, ranging from
0.02 miles to 1,000 miles. Zoom
scales for ‘North up’ , ‘Heading up’
and 3D map view are synchronized. In MAP mode, you can also zoom in
or out, changing the display scale by pressing on one of the arrows on
the button appearing on the left side of the screen. When in Full Screen
Map Mode, touching this button will cause the Zoom Direct buttons to
appear. The Zoom Direct buttons represent the most common scales and
can be pressed directly to show the map at the desired scale. The scale
is approximate and based on the width of the display button (A). The
size of the scale will vary based on the screen size.
Map road colors and building representation on the map:
•Roads:Will be displayed in a variety of colors.
•Building footprints:Will display areas of major buildings in the 20
largest cities in the U.S. These areas will be displayed depending on
their size and the map zoom level.
