unverified streets (light brown color),
the route line changes to either a blue
dotted “vector line” pointing to your
destination, or a blue-pink line. See
Unverified Area Routing on page87 for
a detailed explanatio n of how to enable
unverified routing, and the related
cautions and disclaimers.

You can always view the entire route by
simply saying, “Display entire route.” “Vector line” (unverified routing off)

Guidance Screen
The guidance screen offers an
alternative way to view your route
information. Many of the icons and
screen features are similar to those on
the map screen. While driving to your
destination, press the MAP/GUIDE
button to switch between the map and
guidance screens. The guidance
screen shows you:
Milestone to Destination - The position
of the small circular icon shows your
trip progress. As you get closer to your
destination, the indicator will approach
“DEST.”
Vehicle Heading - The black portion of
the compass symbol indicates north.
NOTE:
The map and voice guidance in unverified areas differ from those in
verified areas.
Current maneuvers and those within 1000 feet will show on the
Countdown bar, indicating the
distance until the next maneuver.

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
select the icons displayed on the map
(for a thorough description of this
feature, see Showing Icons on the Map
on page 60).
By voice control, you can select the icon
by saying the name of the icon (“gas
station,” “ATM,” etc.). Say the icon
name again to turn the icon off.

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.
Direction List
If you select Directions from the Map
menu , the display changes to:
NOTE:
The map and voice guidance in unverified areas differ from those in
verified areas. See Unverified Area
Routing on page 87.
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.

Information)
You can search freeway exit
information and add new destinations or
waypoints to the calculated route as a
new destination or waypoint. The exit
info icon ( ) on the right end of the
items in the direction list indicates that
there is freeway exit information
available. Say or select EXIT INFO, and
choose the exit and place to set as a new
destination or waypoint. On the
map screen, you can display
freeway exit information using the
Interface Dial . The exit info icon will
only be displayed on the map screen if
there is any freeway exit information
available. Choose the 1/4, 1/2, or 1 mile
scale, then move the crosshairs to the
desired exit info icon and push in on the
Interface Dial . Choose a place from

Guidance Mode
When en route to a destination, you
have two display options: single-screen
mode (the factory default) and split-
screen mode.
Single-screen mode - A map is
displayed with occasional guidance
pop-up windows as you approach a
maneuver.
Split-screen mode - The map is always
displayed on the left of the screen, and
the maneuver or direction list is
displayed on the right-hand side of the
screen.
Guidance mode can be changed in either
SETUP (see Guidance Mode on
page 94), or by accessing the icon bar
(see CHANGE GUIDANCE MODE on
page 60). When you get near the maneuver, the
map
screen changes to:
On the map screen, the location of the
maneuver is marked with a small yellow
square. The guidance window is simply
an enlargement of the area indicated by
the yellow square. After you complete
the maneuver, the display returns to a
full map screen when the single-screen
mode is set, or to a map and direction
list screen when the split-screen mode is
set.
