Setting a Destination
Press the green corner of your touchscreen, then the Dest button when
it appears. Choose any of the following:
Destination selections
My Home Street Address
Favorites Intersection
Previous Destinations City Center
Point of Interest (POI) Map
Emergency Previous Starting Point
Freeway Entrance/Exit Latitude/Longitude
1.
Enter the necessary information into the highlighted text fields (in any
order). For address destination entry, the Go! button appears once all
the necessary information has been entered. Pressing the Go! button
makes the address location to appear on the map. If you choose
Previous Destination, the last 20 destinations you have selected appear.
2. Select Set as Dest to make this your destination. You can also choose to
set this as a waypoint (have the system route to this point on the way
to your current destination) or save it as a favorite. Any Avoid Areas
selections are also considered in route calculation.
3. Choose from up to three different types of routes, then select Start
Route.
•Fastest: Uses the fastest moving roads possible.
•Shortest: Uses the shortest distance possible.
•Eco (EcoRoute): Uses the most fuel efficient route.
You can cancel the route or have the system demo the route for you.
Select Route Prefs to set route preferences like avoiding freeways, toll
roads, ferries and car trains as well as to use or not use HOV lanes.
(HOV lanes are High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes also known as carpool or
diamond lanes. These lanes are reserved for people who ride in buses,
vanpools or carpools.)
Note:If Start Route button is not pressed and the vehicle is driven on a
recognized road, the system defaults to the fastest route option and
begins guidance.
During route guidance, the “talking bubble” icon that appears in the
upper right navigation corner (green bar) can be pressed if the user
wants the system to repeat a route guidance instruction. Instructions

always select the shortest distance, fastest time
or most economical route.

and province based on the information already
entered into the system.

traffic problems along your route.

traffic incidents that develop and impact the
current route (no notification is provided).

alert notification for traffic incidents along the
planned route. You have a choice to accept or
ignore the notification before the route deviation
is made.

(road work, incidents, accidents, closed roads,
etc.).

access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even
occasional short scans to the screen may be hazardous if your attention has
been diverted away from your driving task at a critical time.
Volume Setting
Do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the volume at a level where
you can still hear outside traffic and emergency signals while driving.
Driving while unable to hear these sounds could cause an accident.
Use of Speech Recognition Functions
Speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process which is
subject to errors. It is your responsibility to monitor any speech
recognition functions included in the system and address any errors.
Navigation Features
Any navigation features included in the system are intended to provide
turn by turn instructions to get you to a desired destination. Please make
certain all persons using this system carefully read and follow
instructions and safety information fully.
Distraction Hazard
Any navigation features may require manual (non-verbal) setup.
Attempting to perform such set-up or insert data while driving can
seriously distract your attention and could cause an accident or other
serious consequences. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before
attempting these operations.
Let Your Judgment Prevail
Any navigation features are provided only as an aid. Make your driving
decisions based on your observations of local conditions and existing
traffic regulations. Any such feature is not a substitute for your personal
judgment. Any route suggestions made by this system should never
replace any local traffic regulations or your personal judgment or
knowledge of safe driving practices.
Route Safety
Do not follow the route suggestions if doing so would result in an unsafe or
illegal maneuver, if you would be placed in an unsafe situation, or if you
would be directed into an area that you consider unsafe. The driver is
ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore,
must evaluate whether it is safe to follow the suggested directions.
Potential Map Inaccuracy
Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because of changes in
roads, traffic controls or driving conditions. Always use good judgment
and common sense when following the suggested routes.
