Introduction
Verified streets (dark colored) Unverified streets (light colored)
When
displayed These roads are found within metropolitan areas, and
include interstate freeways
and major roads connecting
cities. These roads are found in rural
areas, and typically include
residential streets away fr om the center of a town.
Street color Shown on daytime
map screen as black or red, such as
interstate freeways. Shown on the daytime
map screen as light brown.
Map Quality The database vendor has
verified these streets.
Information like turn restri ctions, average speed, and
whether it is a one way street have been gathered and
used when creating your route to a destination. These streets have not
been verified by the database vendor.
The system does not contain in formation on one-way streets,
turn restrictions, or the road’s average speed. They are shown
on the map for reference and can have errors in map location,
naming, and address range.
Routing
differences While driving to your destin
ation, the displayed route
line is solid blue. The syst em provides voice and map
guidance to your destination. Your route line is either a blue
dotted “vector line,” or a dashed
pink/blue line. For information on selecting this option, and the
routing differences, see Unverified Area Routing on page 92.
Cautions There are no pop up boxes urging extra caution during a
route. However, because ro
ads constantly change, you
are urged to use common sense, and always obey
posted traffic restrictions. Regardless of whether the user
chooses route guidance, there
are cautionary screens before and during the route urging the
user to be extra cautious, and obey all traffic restrictions. see
Unverified Area Routing on page 92.
Guidance
voice Voice guidance issues maneuvers such as “In a half
mile make a right turn.” The suffix “if possible” is adde
d to each guidance maneuver.
For example: “In a half mile make a right turn, if possible.”
Time and
distance
“to go” The time and distance “to go,
” displayed while on route
to a destination, is based on the average speed and
distance for the roads used for your route. Because the average speed of thes
e roads is not known, the time
and distance “to go” is based on a fixed average speed of
25 mph for these roads.
