select Guidance, Walking, or Planning Mode.

Guidance Mode

In Guidance Mode, you enter one or more
destinations, then tap the Start Driving
button to start driving and receive guidance.
This mode provides you with on-screen and
spoken driving directions and other
information relevant to your trip, such as
estimated time of arrival and distancve to the next stop.
To receive driving directions and other data, you must have a GPS receiver
attached to your Pocket PC and the receiver must be in a good position to
receive signals. Also, Receiving must be turned on in the GPS menu.

Walking Mode

Take CoPilot with you wherever you go! Walking Mode provides an as-the-
crow-flies distance and direction line to your destination, directions that are
perfect for walking. A GPS receiver must be attached and receiving signals.

Planning Mode

Planning Mode lets you use your Pocket PC as a pre-trip planning tool or easy-
to-use reference guide. Planning Mode lets you view static maps and directions
without the need for a GPS receiver.

Trip itineraries you create in Planning Mode can be saved and then loaded in any
mode at a later time (generate directions, then select Save Trip As from the
Tools menu).
