Navigation System
89
After you have traveled approximately 
1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the 
system will display a series of white 
dots on the 
map
screen to show the path
you have traveled. This is provided so 
you can follow the dots to backtrack to 
the mapped road you originally left. 
Tracking continues until you reach a 
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on 
page 59.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8, 
1/4, and 1/2 mile, or the 80, 200, 400, 
and 800 meter scales. Use the 
ZOOM
buttons to change the scales if 
necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature 
off and exit Setup. To re-enable this 
feature, return to Setup and turn it on 
again.
Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for 
positioning information. Buildings, 
tunnels, and other objects can block or 
reflect these signals, requiring the 
system to use “dead reckoning” to 
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors 
in positioning, such as showing you on 
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle 
position is not recommended. When the 
system acquires a GPS signal, it will 
automatically place the vehicle in the 
correct location.
If you choose to do this, follow these 
steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select
Adjust
, and the system will
display a map adjustment screen.
3. Use the
ZOOM
buttons and the
joystick to move the location 
arrowhead to the correct location. 
Touch the arrow buttons on the 
bottom of the screen to rotate the 
direction arrows so the vehicle 
position is pointing in the correct 
direction.
NOTE:
If you continually have to do this, there 
are either problems in the database or 
GPS reception problems. See 
Accessories Precautions on page 5.
4. When you have finished, press the
joystick or select
Done
to return to
the
Setup
screen.
5. As you drive, the current road will be
displayed at the bottom of the screen.
