City Vicinity
The system allows you to find points of
interest in the vicinity of the city you
entered. When you select this option,
the display changes to Enter city name
screen. Enter the name of the city using
the Interface Dial . If the system does
not find an exact match, select LIST
when you finish entering the name of
the city. Select a de sired city from the
list.
Once you have selected the city, the
display changes to Enter a place name
screen. Enter the name of the place
using the Interface Dial .
Once you select a place, the system then
displays the Calculate route to screen
(see Driving to Your Destination on
page46).
Place Name
When you select this option, the display
changes to Enter a place name screen.
Enter your selection, using the
Interface Dial .
Once you select a place, the system then
displays the Calculate route to screen
(see Driving to Your Destination on
page46).
Finding the Place by Name
The Name option allows you to enter
the name of a business, and then shows
you a list of businesses with the same or
similar names to select from. Use the
name option only if you know the exact
spelling of the place. If unsure, use the
Category option.
Finding the Place by Phone
Number
The Phone Number option allows
you to select a destination by its
telephone number. Only telephone
numbers stored in th e system under the
Places (of business) option are
recognized. The system does not contain
residential telephone numbers, or
numbers you may have entered in your
personal Address Book.
Tip:
If you know the phone number of a point
of interest (POI), its uniqueness makes it
the fastest entry method. When using the
voice control system, the entry should be
spoken as a continuous string of
numbers. For example, the telephone
number (310) 555-4000 should be
spoken as “Three, one, zero, five, five,
five, four, zero, zero, zero.”

Driving to Your Destination
Viewing/Saving the Current
Location
Whenever you are on a map screen, you
can always obtain your current location
either by pushing in on the Interface
Dial , selecting Show Icon on Map ,
and selecting Current Location , or by
using the voice control system and
saying “Display current location.” A
screen pops up which shows the address
of your current location, as well as the
latitude, longitude, and elevation. NOTE:
The elevation will not appear when the
system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation
may not agree with elevations shown on
roadside elevation signs, and may
fluctuate plus or minus 100 feet or more.
You can store the current location for
later use. It does not change or cancel
your current route.
For example, you
are following the
system’s directions to get to a
destination. While sitting at a stoplight
you notice a store on the corner, but do
not have time to visit it right now. You
can save the location to select as a
destination at a later date. To save the location, say “Save current
location” or select
Save on the Current
location screen. The Edit address
book screen with the current location
data will appear. You can edit the name,
phone number, or category name to be
saved in your personal Address Book.
After the location is saved, select
Return to return to the map screen.
You can then use Address Book from
the MENU screen ( Enter destination
by ) to select the saved location and
return to the same spot.
