Changing Routing Method
The system lets you select the way you
want to drive to your destination. Before
selecting OK to calculate a route, you
can change the routing method by
moving the Interface Dial down. The
route choices will appear in the address
box.
NOTE:
When you are en route and want to
change the routing method, press the
MENU button, and select Change
Method on the MENU screen (Route).• “Direct Route” (the factory default) is
the route that is the quickest (least
time) and is usually the best choice. If
you choose any other method, it
becomes the new default for all future
routing. Make sure to check the
routing method if the displayed route
is not what you expected to see.
• “Easy Route” produces a route with the least turns.
• “Maximize Freeways,” “Minimize Freeways,” and “Minimize Toll
Roads” are also available.
NOTE:
If the trip is greater than 100 miles, then
“Minimize Freeways” and “Minimize
Toll Roads” may be grayed out. This is
normal. The generated route may not be the
route you would choose. For safety
reasons, the system generally applies the
following rules to your route:
• It tries to avoid shortcuts through
residential areas.
• Right turns are favored over left turns or U-turns.
• Restricted turns (turns that cannot be made during certain hours) are not
used for routing.

you select View Routes , the display
changes to :
NOTE:
The selected route method is shown at the top of the screen.
It may take several minutes (the system displays an hourglass while it
is calculating) to show all route
methods, and it is not unusual for the
different methods to pick the same
route. Voice commands cannot be
used while the system is calculating. If the trip is greater than 100 miles,
then “Minimize Toll Roads” and
“Minimize Freeways” may be grayed
out. This is normal.
Zoom IN/OUT to view route details is not available on this screen. After
you choose a “route method,” you
can then zoom in or out on the map
screen to view your route in details.
Say or select SUMMARY to display the
distance and time to go for each route.
Based on the route data, you can change
the routing method by rotating the
Interface Dial knob. Once you
confirm your selection, say the number
of the desired routing method or push in
on the Interface Dial .
NOTE:
Distances and times shown for each
method in the Summary are
approximate. After calculating the route with the new
method, the system displays a map of
your current locatio
n. The calculated
route will be highlighted as a blue line,
and a voice prompt will tell you how to
proceed along the highlighted route.
Push in on the Interface Dial and
select Voice to have the guidance

Distance and Time to
Destination
When you select a destination, the
distance to the destination is the actual
road distance of the calculated route,
and not “as the crow flies.” When
viewing a list of destinations (points of
interest), such as restaurants, the
distance is “as the crow flies” (see Sort
by Distance to Travel on page32).
The displayed time to the destination
may differ from the actual travel time
because the time is calculated based on
the posted road speed data and your
current speed. If part of your route
includes unverified roads, the “distance”
and “time to go” for that portion is
estimated using 25 mph as an average
speed.
Map Menu
When the map screen is displayed,
pressing in on the Interface Dial
displays the Map menu. If the map is
scrolled, the Map menu will not
appear. Move the Interface Dial left or
press the CANCEL button to return to
the basic map screen.
Voice - Button shown if currently en
route. Select to hear the next guidance
maneuver (see page 53).
Directions - Button shown if currently
en route. Select to see a list of directions
to your destination (see page 53). North-up/Heading-up - Select
Heading-up or North-up
button to
change map orientation. See Map
Orientation on page57 for details. On
scales greater than 1 mile, this button is
grayed out (North-up only mode).
Show Icon on Map - Allows you to

By voice control, you can select the icon

Voice Guidance Prompts
As you get near the maneuver, you will
hear a voice reminder and see a pop-up
window showing you the maneuver.
The number of reminders that you will
hear before a maneuver is determined
by Guidance Prompts in SETUP on
page 78.
With the factory default (NORMAL),
typically you will hear two prompts:
• The first is about 1/4 mile from the maneuver.
• The final prompt is close to your actual turn.
If the distance between the next two
driving maneuvers is very small, both
maneuvers are displayed on the screen
in a single window, and the voice will
remind you of both of them at the same
time. NOTE:
You can say “Voice” at any time, or
select Voice after pushing on the
Interface Dial to be reminded of the
next maneuver. For information on
the available voice commands, see
Voice Command Index on page139.
Typically, a pop-up guidance window shows your next turn, and a voice
guidance prompt is heard. The timing
of these prompts varies, depending on
the type of road you are on, and the
distance to your next maneuver.
When given guidance in unverified
areas, the words “if possible” are
inserted before each guidance prompt.
See Unverified Area Routing on page87
for more details about unverified
routing.

NOTE:
The map and voice guidance in unverified areas differ from those in
verified areas. See Unverified Area

Only maneuvers that occur at freeway exits or contain freeway exit
information will show the exit info
icon ( ) on the right end of the
items in the direction list. If no exit
info icon is shown on the list, the
EXIT INFO is not displayed.
