Edit Waypoint Search Area
When driving on route to your
destination, you can select a temporary
destination “waypoint” (marked with a
small flag on the map) along your route
for gas, a restaurant, or other POI. When
you resume your trip from the
“waypoint,” the system continues the
trip to your original destination. To use
this feature, see Waypoints on page61.
This Setup item allows you to select the
distance from your highlighted route
line (on either side of your route), that
the system will search for a “waypoint.”
From the Routing & Guidance screen,
select Edit for “Edit Waypoint Search
Area,” and then choose the desired
search distance for either “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.” The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for “Places
Along the Route” or
“Places Around the
Destination” (see Waypoints on
page61). For “Places along the route,” the system
looks in front of you within a corridor
width specified by your values for “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.”
The system checks the upcoming area,
based on your input.
For “Places around the destination,” the
system searches outwards in a spiral
from the destination. In this case,
specific search values are not needed;
the matches are displayed in order of
distance from destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search
range used for the
voice commands like,
“Find nearest gas station,” that are
also available when viewing the map
screen.
