a place on the map or point of interest. The easiest
way is by voice.
1) Press the voice button
, then when
prompted say “Destination street address”.
2) The system will ask you to say the full address
and will display an example on-screen.

such as: “One two three Main Street, Anytown”.
You can also use the touch screen to enter a
destination and narrow your choices by city or
street as you type. You can choose from up to three different types
of routes:
-
Fastest: Uses the fastest moving roads possible.
- Shortest: Uses the shortest distance possible.
- Eco (EcoRoute): Uses the most fuel
efficient route.
