Each entered letter will appear at the top of the display. Say or select Space to enter a space between words. Say or select Delete to erase a letter entered incorrectly.
When entering an address, the system searches the database for words that match the letters you are entering. As a result, you will notice that some letters are no longer available.
When the system finds only one entry that matches, it completes the entry of the name for you. If the system finds more than one entry that matches your input, the system displays a list.
Tip:
If you are unsure of the spelling of a name, enter the lette rs that you are sure of, and then select List. The system displays a list of names that most closely matches your input.
You can choose to have your keyboard displayed in alphabetized format as shown below:

Address (see page 23)
This selection requires you to enter the city (and possibly the state) and the address that you want to go to.
Intersection (see page 27)
This selection allows you to enter the names of two intersecting streets in a city. This is useful if you know the general location of your destination, but not the exact address.
Places (see page 32)
The system has been programmed with the locations of many businesses, parks, hospitals, etc. This selection lets you search these by category, name, or phone number.
Map Input (see page 37)
This selection allows you to point to a destination on th e map using the joystick. This allows you to enter a destination or address that may not be listed in the database.
Previous Destinations (see page 41)
When you enter a destination with any of the available se lections (except Address Book and Go Home), the last 50 destinations are saved by the system. Use this selection to choose a destination again.
NOTE:
If Previous Destinations is grayed out, there are no Previous Destinations entered.

By Address
After you select Address from the Enter destination by screen, the display changes to:
Tip:
When entering an address by voice, it is more efficient to say the city name first, then the street name. When entering an address by touch, it is usually easier to enter the street first. A city or cities that the street appears in will be displayed. For your convenience, you do not have to enter both city and street.
NOTE:
If you find that your city is not listed, it may be part of a larger metropolitan area. Try entering the street first. Prior to departure, you can set areas to avoid. The system then includes them in its calculations for the destination you have entered. See Edit Avoid Area on page 89.
Selecting the State or Province
The state you are in is displayed at the top of the screen. If your desired destination is in another state, select Change State .
The display then changes to the Enter state name screen. Use the voice control system and say the name of the state or use the on-s creen keyboard to enter the name of the state.
Selecting the City
This is helpful if the street runs through several cities, and you know what city includes the street. The city you are in is displayed on the screen. If the city you want is displayed on the screen, say “Select current city.” If your desired destination is in a nother city, say or enter that city.
By Voice Control:
Say “City” on the Find address by screen, and the display changes to the Say city name screen. Say the city name and the searching will begin.
NOTE:
To improve voice recognition when saying the city name, pronounce the syllables as clearly as possible.
