To enter the city name by voice spelling,
say or select CHANGE TO Spell
Mode on the Say city name screen,
and the display will change to the Enter
city name screen.
Say the city name by saying individual
letters, one at a time.
The system has a talk back function. If
your spoken letter is not recognized, the
system will talk back to you. For
example, if you say "E" but the system
does not recognize the command, it will
ask you such as "E as in Edward?"
You should answer "Yes."
Alternatively, to improve voice
recognition, you can say "Echo" or
"Edward" instead of "E."
See page 15 for a list of available words
for each letter.

The system will display a list of city
names, with the closest match to the
name you entered at the top of the list.
Select the number (1-6) of the desired
city from the list.

Entering a Destination
If the system does not find an exact
match, select List when you finish
entering the name of the city. Most of
the cities and towns for that state are
listed.
Listings of cities and towns in the non-
detailed coverage area may have an
asterisk "*" next to their names. If you
select one, no detailed street data is
available, and an address cannot be
entered. Try entering the street first, and
then select the city if available.
Select View Dest. Map and use the
joystick to select an icon, approximate
area, or street you wish to choose as
your destination. Otherwise, a central
location of the city will be selected. If
you select a point of interest (POI) or
road in an unverified area, you may or
may not have routing in these areas. See
Map Overview on page 6.
