Driving to Your Destination

Going Off the Route

If you leave the calculated route,
“Recalculating...” is displayed at the top
of the screen. The system will
recalculate the route from your current
location and direction to the desired
destination, and then give you a new
route instruction. This is done
automatically if you have set

Rerouting

to

Automatic

on the

Setup

screen (second) (see page 85).

If the

Rerouting

option in Setup is set

to

Manual

, “Off route” appears at the

top of the screen when you leave the
calculated route. Say “Recalculate” or
select

Recalc.

whenever you wish the

system to perform a recalculation.

Off-road Tracking

If you drive more than half a mile from
a mapped road, “Not on a digitized
road” appears at the bottom of the
screen.

The

map

screen starts displaying a

series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the
path you have taken if

Off-road

Tracking

on the

Setup

screen (second)

is set to

On

(see page 93).

By following the dots, you can
backtrack to the mapped road you
originally left. “Breadcrumbs” may
occasionally be displayed in urban
areas, such as large parking lots in
shopping malls, or in new subdivisions
where the roads are not yet in the
database. In other cases, you may see
dots if the system temporarily goes off
route, like in a parking garage where the
GPS signal is unavailable.

These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile (or the 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter) map scales.
Use the

ZOOM

buttons to change scales

if necessary.

Tracking continues for approximately
150 miles; dots at the beginning of the
trail will start disappearing when you
exceed that distance. When you reach a
mapped road, the system stops
displaying dots.
