Changing the Route Preference
The system lets you select the way you
want to drive to your destination. Select
Route Pref. on the Calculate route to
screen by rotating the Interface Dial
knob.
• You can choose MAX or MIN for
four settings: Freeways, Toll
Roads, ETC Roads , and Ferries .
The route calculations for the current
selection will be displayed in the
upper right-hand corner of the screen.
NOTE:
If you select MIN or MAX of ETC
Roads as your route preference, the
system finds the route with as few
electronic toll collection (ETC) gates as
possible in MIN or as many ETC gates
as possible in MAX. The generated route may not be the
route you would choose. For safety
reasons, the system ge
nerally applies the
following rules to your route:
• Shortcuts through residential areas are avoided.
• Right turns are favored over left turns or U-turns.
• Restricted turns (turns that cannot be made during or at certain times of the
day) are not used.
Viewing the Routes
If you select View Routes on the
Calculate route to screen, you can
view three possible routes to your
destination. You can also use the
Interface Dial to verify the areas
peripheral to the map. If you select
View Routes , the display changes to: These different routes are shown and
calculated based on the setup options in
Route Pref.
.
You can select one of the three routes
(1-3) by rotating the Interface Dial
knob. The system will calculate the
selected route and display the map
screen.
NOTE:

displayed.
• It is not unusual for the different methods to pick the same route. Voice
commands cannot be used while the
system is calculating.
• Zoom IN/OUT to view route details or traffic conditions is not available

In the screen shown, traffic, gas stations,
and restaurants are selected. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob and push in to
select (blue with box checked) or
remove them (black with box
unchecked). You can also display or
hide the same icons by using the
“Display” or “Hide” voice commands
on the map screen (see page 158).
ICON OPTION
This feature allows you to “fine tune”
some of the icons on the Icon bar.
If you move the Interface Dial down
and select ICON OPTION , the
following screen will be displayed: The four icon choices –
Parking,
Restaurant , Other Icons , and
Traffic – can each be tailored to your
needs.
For instance, let’s assume that hospital
icons are not displayed on the map, and
you want to make sure that your settings
are correct. You would do the
following:
• First, ensure that OTHER ICON on
the Icon Bar is selected.
• Second, select Other Icons from
ICON OPTION and verify that the
hospital option is on (blue with box
checked). This procedure is explained
below.
If you select Other Icons from the
Select category for icon settings
screen, the other icon options are
displayed: In the previous example, only
POST
OFFICE and SCHOOL are selected
and will show up on the map. To also
see HOSPITAL on the map, this would
need to be turned on by first selecting it
and then pushing in on the Interface
Dial to select it so it appears as below.

The map can be orientated two ways:
• North-up: North pointing up as you would normally view a paper map.
• Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on
always points up (as you see the road
through your front windshield).
NOTE:
The red arrow in both heading symbols
always shows the direction north. Select
North-up or Heading-up on
the Map information screen, or say
“Display heading up” or “Display north
up.”
In the larger map scales (above 2 mile),
the map is always oriented with north
facing upward. You cannot change the
orientation.

For information on the available voice
commands, see Voice Command Index

Destination Icon
The destination icon only shows the
approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can
have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed
by the 1500 block.) Since most cities
use only a portion of the 100 possible
addresses (for example, in the 1400
block, the addresses may only go up to
1425 before the 1500 block starts).
Therefore, the address 1425 will be
shown a quarter of the way down the
block by the system instead of near the
end of the block where the destination is
actually located.
Tip:
When en route, you can view a map
showing your destination. Using voice
control, say “Display destination map.”
Various Other Icons
Landmark Icons
Landmark icons are shown in the map
screen on 1/20 and 1/8 mile scales. The
