System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The
navigation program starts at “Key
ON,” and then displays the globe
screen (blue). If OK is selected on the
Disclaimer screen, the functions in the
yellow segments of the diagram become
available in the SET UP and INFO
screens.
The items above the map screen show
various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
While driving to your destination, use
the voice control system as much as
possible to interact with the navigation,
audio, and climate control systems
(green).

System Setup
Navigation System109
Edit Waypoint Search Area
When driving en route to your
destination, you can select a temporary
destination waypoint (marked with a
small fl ag 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 Waypoint on page 75 .
This SET UP 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 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
“SEARCH ALONG” or “SEARCH
AROUND the Destination” (see
Waypoint on page 75 ).
2 mi
For “Places along the route,” the system
looks in front of you within a corridor
width specifi ed 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,
specifi c 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.
