you wish to avoid when calculating a
route to your destination. You can select
up to five areas to avoid. You may wish
to set up an “avoid area” to route around
long-term road construction, closures,
or any area you wish to avoid. If you
enter a route that takes you through or
into an “avoid area,” a pop-up box will
warn you that your route takes you into
one of these areas. However, you can
still choose destinations in an avoided

When you select Edit Avoid Area , the
following list screen is displayed. You can select
New Area, or select one
of your existing areas to modify. If you

System SetupEdit Waypoint Search AreaWhen driving en route to your
destination, you can select a temporary
destination waypoint (marked with a
small flag on the map) along your route
for gas, a restaurant, or other POI.
When you resume your trip from the
waypoint, the system continues the trip
to your original destination. To use this
feature, see Waypoint on page 73.
This SETUP item allows you to select
the distance from your highlighted route
line (on either side of your route) that
the system will search for a waypoint.
From the Routing & Guidance screen,
select Edit Waypoint Search Area ,
and then choose the desired search
distance for either “On Freeways” or
“On Surface Street.” The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for
“SEARCH ALONG” or “SEARCH
AROUND the Destination” (see
Waypoint
on page 73). For “SEARCH ALONG,” the system
looks in front of you within a corridor
width specified by your values for “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.”
The system checks the upcoming area,
based on your input.
For “SEARCH AROUND,” the system
searches outwards in a spiral from the
destination. In this case, specific search
values are not needed; the matches are
displayed in order of distance from
destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search
range used for the voice commands like
“Find nearest gas station” that are also
available when viewing the map
screen.
