Map Orientation
The map can be orientated two ways:
North-up: North pointing up as you would normally view a paper map.
Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on
always points up (as you see the road
through your front windshield).
NOTE:
The red arrow in both heading symbols
always shows the direction north. Push in on the
Interface Dial on the
map or guidance screen and select
North-up or Heading-up to switch
between the available orientation, or say
“Display heading up” or “Display north
up.”
In the larger map scales (above 1 mile or
1.6 kilometer), the map is always
oriented with north facing upward. You
cannot change the orientation.
To view other areas on the map, move
the Interface Dial left, right, up, or
down. The map will shift in that
direction. To return the map to your
current location, press either the MAP/
GUIDE , the CANCEL , or the NAVI
BACK button on the steering wheel. The display automati
cally changes to
the map screen when you reach your
destination. Press the MENU button to
return to the MENU screen ( Enter
destination by ).
NOTE:
For information on the available voice commands, see Voice
Command Index on page153.
If you are en route and the Interface
Dial is moved, the “Time to
Destination” and “Distance to
Destination” indications are
replaced with an indicator showing
distance from the current vehicle
location.
