System Setup
Unverified Area Routing
Allows you to receive turn-by-turn ma p and voice guidance in unverified areas when en route to a destination (see Map Overview
on page 6). The chart below illustrates the routing differences with this setting ON or OFF .
Unverified Area Routing: OFF (factory default) Unverified Area Routing: ON
Decision:
Why choose
ON or OFF ?
The driver wishes to navigate manually by using the
navigation map and choosing th e streets that lead to the
destination. The driver un derstands that unverified
roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in
location, naming, and address range. The driver chooses to let th
e navigation system suggest
possible routing. The driver understands that in some
cases, guidance may not be appropriate. Unverified
roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in
location, naming, and address range.
What you will
see...A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that
continually points to your destination. The driver
should stop and then use the map to select streets that
lead to the destination. A blue-pink dashed route line highlights suggested
unverified streets
on the map while traveling to your
destination. This is in sharp contrast to the normal blue
route line displayed in verified areas.
Cautionary
messagesThere are cautionary pop-up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These
serve as reminders that you should obey all traffic
restrictions. There are cautionary pop-
up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These
serve as reminders that you should exercise additional
caution, and obey all traffic restrictions.
Guidance
(map/voice)There is no turn-by-turn map or voice guidan ce. Voice guidance commands end with the words “if
possible.” This is to remind the driver to verify all
traffic restrictions before making a maneuver.
Directions listA direction list is typically not available. However,
depending on your route, directions are provided to
help you reach the first available verified road. A direction list is provided showing street names and
turn symbols in pink.

System Setup
Unverified Area Routing
When driving to your destination, you
have the choice of using or not using
“unverified” roads. You make this
choice in the SETUP screen. The next
few pages contain an example of a route
to a destination in an unverified area
explaining the routing differences found
in unverified areas.
With Unverified Area Routing OFF ,
the system tries to use verified roads
whenever possible. In this example,
since only verified streets are used, it
created a longer rout e than necessary.
With Unverified Area Routing ON,
the route is shorter, but consists of
unverified (light co lored) streets that
may not be accurate. Because the streets
are unverified, there may be errors in
street location, name, or address range.
Additional caution is recommended in
these areas. Always obey posted traffic
restrictions. Because both routes bypass or use
unverified streets, an initial
Disclaimer
screen is provided. It is recommended
that you stop and review the map.
Unverified Area Routing “OFF” Unverified Area
Routing “ON”
NOTE:
Unverified roads are shown only when
viewing the map in the 1/20, 1/8, and
1/4 mile map scales, or the 80, 200, and
400 meter map scales.

Navigation System103
System Setup
With Unverified Area Routing OFF ,
the driver chose to take a shortcut and
avoid the long route. The moment you
enter an unverified street, a caution box
appears on the screen and is read by the
voice. This lets you know that you are
about to enter an unverified area and
that you will be following a dotted
“vector line” that points to your
destination.
With Unverified Area Routing ON,
a caution box appear s on the screen and
is read by the voice. In this case, you
will be presented with a dashed blue/
pink line instead of the regular blue
route line. You cannot assume that all
guidance is appropriate. This is your
signal to pay attention to posted traffic
restrictions.
In both cases, when you actually enter
the unverified street, a short caution will
remind you. You will see and hear this
short caution message whenever you
enter unverified areas. Unverified Area Routing “OFF” Unverified Area Routing “ON”
