Changing the 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 using
the CHANGE METHOD scroll bar
back ( ) or forward ( ) buttons. 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
Routing Method on the Change
route by screen. • “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.

Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route,
“Recalculating...” is displayed at the top
of the screen. The system will
recalculate the route from your current
location and direction to the desired
destination, and then give you a new
route instruction. This is done
automatically if you have set
Rerouting to Automatic on the

The map screen starts displaying a
series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the
path you have taken if Off-road
Tracking on the Setup screen (second)
is set to On (see page 90). By following the dots, you can
backtrack to the mapped road you
originally left. “Breadcrumbs” may
occasionally be displayed in urban
areas, such as large parking lots in
shopping malls, or in new subdivisions
where the roads are not yet in the
database. In other cases, you may see
dots if the system temporarily goes off
route, like in a parking garage where the
GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile (or the 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter) map scales.
Use the ZOOM
buttons to change scales
if necessary.
Tracking continues for approximately
150 miles; dots at the beginning of the
trail will start disappearing when you
exceed that distance . When you reach a
mapped road, th e system stops
displaying dots.
