76 Navigation System
Driving to Your Destination
Waypoint
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 places
including the destination 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.
When you enter waypoints, they appear
on the
map screen as small red flags
numbered 1-4.
Adding Waypoint
From the MENU screen ( Route ), if you
say or select Waypoint , the Add
waypoint screen is displayed.
Select either SEARCH AROUND or
SEARCH ALONG by rotating
Interface Dial knob .
Next, select the category from the
“Main” or “Fav. Subcategory” tab on
the
Category screen, then follow the
menu prompts to select a destination.
When the system performs a search
from
SEARCH ALONG , it displays
matches that lie within a corridor on
either side and in front of your route.
From SEARCH AROUND , the system
displays matches that are a uniform
distance from the departure point/
waypoint/destination.
The search “corridor” distance value
can be changed in
