Address Entry

NOTE: There is no need to enter a starting point. CoPilot uses GPS
positioning to determine your location automatically.

Address entry is a step-by-step process in which you enter the state or ZIP
code, city, and house number/street name in separate screens. As you type each
entry, matches in the database appear on a pick list below. Tapping an item on
the list enters it, then you tap Next to confirm and move to the next screen.

Using Your Pocket PC for Guidance

In CoPilot's Guidance Mode you will receive turn-by-turn route guidance infor-
mation as you travel. For your safety the Driver Safety Screen will hide maps
when your speed exceeds 10 m.p.h. to avoid distractions.

REMINDER: CoPilot won’t open on your Pocket PC unless map data has been
previously downloaded from the CoPilot desktop application.

For IN-VEHICLE HARDWARE SETUP: See Getting Started - Hardware, p. 3.
