The following methods exist for orientation of the map:
•Heading up:In this mode, the
direction of forward travel is
always 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
upward direction on screen.

miles to 1000 miles. 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.

roads will be open in the future.
•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.
