Trip Information Page
The third main page is the Trip Information Page. If you are making a long trip, you will fi nd the
Trip Information Page very useful. It indicates your current speed and many helpful statistics about
your trip. The following are useful suggestions to aid in maximizing the use of the Trip Information
Page:
Be certain to reset the Trip Computer before beginning the trip. Instructions on resetting will follow.
If you make frequent stops, leave the Navigator powered on and receiving satellites. This will allow the
unit to accurately measure elapsed time during the trip. However, your vehicle may disconnect power
to the Navigator when the ignition is turned off. In order to continue receiving satellites, use batteries
as well. When external power is removed, the unit will then ask, with a screen prompt, if it can use the
batteries when vehicle power is not available.
The following trip information is displayed on the Trip Information Page:
Driving Status Information - Displayed at the top of the page. Shows the next intersection (the
crossroad name) or exit (if you are on an interstate) if one is approaching. Otherwise it tells you
what road you are on.
Speed - This is the current vehicle speed.
Odometer - A running total of distance traveled, based upon the distance between second-by-second
location readings, since the Trip Computer was last reset.
Current Direction - Displayed to the right of the speed.
Power/Battery - Displayed to the left of the odometer. When operating from external (vehicle) power,
a power plug symbol is shown along with the label, External Power. If the Navigator is using internal
AA batteries, a battery strength bar is shown (above the bar is a label, Battery Power). Notice the
shaded area of the bar. The farther right the shading extends, the more battery power remaining. When
operating on batteries, the bar and the label turn red when power is low (20% or less).
