Automotive Mode has two main pages (Map and Trip Computer)
that are always available. Optional Highway and Compass pages
can be turned on in Automotive Mode. When you are actively
navigating, the Current Route Page is available if you are navigating
a turn-by-turn route. The Active Route Page is available if you are
navigating off-road. For information about pages and features not
discussed here, see the “Marine Mode Pages” section.
Map Page
In Automotive Mode, by default, four user-selectable data fields
appear on the right side of the screen that can be configured to
display any one of the possible data options. The top of the screen
shows the GPS status or the route leg. You can also add data fields to
the page or select a full-screen map without data fields.
