About viewing the map
You can view the map in the same way as you might look at a traditional paper map. The
map shows your current location and many other locations such as Favorites and POIs.
To view the map in this way, tap View map or View route in the Main menu.
You view different locations on the map by moving the map across the screen. To move
the map, touch the screen and drag your finger across the screen.
To select a location on the map, tap the location on the map. The cursor highlights the
location and displays useful information about the location in an information panel. Tap
the information panel to create a Favorite or plan a route to that location.
