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 (

Other

) (see page 100).

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

Recalculation

whenever you

want 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

(

Other

) is set to

ON

(see page 111).

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 80, 200, 400, and
800 meter) map scales. Rotate the

Interface Dial knob

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.
