Changing the Route
While en route, you may wish to alter
your route, add an interim “Waypoint”
(pit stop), choose a different destination,
or cancel your current destination.
To change your present route, you can
do any of the following:
Say “Menu,” or press the MENU button
to view the Change route by screen:
• Search waypoint (page 65)
• Delete waypoint (page 67)
• Avoid streets (page 67)
• Detour (page 67)
• Change routing method (page 67)
• Cancel the current route (page 68)
• Back to the current route (page 68)Choose a different destination (other
methods) by:
• Saying “Find nearest...” to find a POI
(page 68).
• Saying “Go home” (page 68).
• Using the joystick to select a different
POI or address on the map (page 68).
• Pressing the MENU button twice to
get to the Enter destination by
screen (page 70).
Change Route By Screen
Pressing the MENU button displays the
Change route by screen:
Waypoints
Waypoints allow you to add an interim
“pit stop” while traveling to a
destination. For instance, you may want
to stop for gas or food, and then
continue on to your destination.
Although you can enter up to five
waypoints at a time, typically you may
never use more than one at a time.
Waypoints are routed to in the order
they were entered (number 1 first, etc.),
with your final destination routed to last.
If you wish to create a custom route of
several destinations, and then control
the order of routing, the function
“Today’s Destinations” is probably a
better choice (see By Today’s
Destinations on page 43).

When you enter waypoints, they appear
on the map screen as small red flags

you say or select Search Places on

method screen is displayed. Select
either Places Along the Route or
Places Around the Destination.
Next, select your “Waypoint Category,”
then follow the menu prompts to select a
destination. When the system performs
a search from Places Along the
Route, it displays matches that lie
within a corridor on either side and in
front of you along your route.From Places Around the
Destination, the system displays
matches in a spiral pattern outward from
the destination. The search “corridor”
distance value can be changed in Edit
Waypoint Search Area in Setup (see
page 93).
To add another waypoint, press the
MENU button and repeat the procedure.
If Search Places on Route is grayed
out, the maximum of five waypoints has
been entered.

destination, you can select intersections
or POI waypoints that the system will
use to tailor your route.

get you to your destination. This feature
allows you to avoid a street or streets
along your route. This is helpful if you

excessive traffic along the route. Simply
select the street or streets you wish to
avoid. You cannot avoid your current
street, or the streets of your waypoint(s)
or destination (system beeps if selected).

streets you want to use.

encounter an unexpected obstacle such
as a closed road or extremely heavy

mile (while on a surface street).
