Introduction

Verified streets (dark colored)

Unverified streets (light colored)

When

displayed

These roads are found within metropolitan areas, and

include interstate freeways and major roads connecting

cities.

These roads are found in rural areas, and typically include

residential streets away from the center of a town.

Street color

Shown on daytime

map screen as black or red, such as

interstate freeways.

Shown on the daytime

map screen as light brown.

Map quality

The database vendor has verified these streets.

Information like turn restrictions, average speed, and

whether it is a one-way street have been gathered and

used when creating your route to a destination.

These streets have not been verified by the database vendor.

The system does not contain information on one-way streets,

turn restrictions, or the road’s average speed. They are shown

on the map for reference and may have errors in map location,

naming, and address range.

Routing

differences

While driving to your destination, the displayed route

line is solid blue. The system provides voice and map

guidance to your destination.

Your route line is either a blue dotted “vector line,” or a dashed

pink/blue line. For information on selecting this option, and the

routing differences, see Unverified Area Routing on page 102.

Cautions

There are no pop-up boxes urging extra caution during

a route. However, because roads constantly change,

you are urged to use common sense, and always obey

posted traffic restrictions.

Regardless of whether the user chooses route guidance, there

are cautionary screens before and during the route urging the

user to be extra cautious, and obey all traffic restrictions. See

Unverified Area Routing

on page 102.

Guidance

voice

Voice guidance issues maneuvers such as “In a half-

mile, make a right turn.”

The suffix “if possible” is added to each guidance maneuver.

For example: “In a half-mile, make a right turn, if possible.”

Time and

distance

“to go”

The time and distance “to go,” displayed while en route

to a destination, is based on the average speed and

distance for the roads used for your route.

Because the average speed of these roads is not known, the time

and distance “to go” is based on a fixed average speed of

25 mph for these roads.
