System Set-up
Either select Address or Map Input
on the Enter avoid area by screen.
Each choice provides a slightly different
way to locate the approximate map
display for drawing the area you wish to
avoid. After selecting the choice, a map
screen will be displayed.
Use the ZOOM buttons to select the
map scale (available scales are 1/20, 1/
8, and 1/4 mile scales).
Use the joystick to move the crosshairs
(red circle) to the desired start point and
push in the joystick to "set" the start
point. Then move the joystick in a
straight or diagonal direction to
encompass the area to be avoided.
86 Navigation System
NOTE:
The maximum size of the "Avoid area"
is 1/4 of the navigation display screen
regardless of the map scale setting.
The selected area will be displayed as a
shaded box with an orange border. Push
in on the joystick to set the end point of
the avoided area. To "re-draw" the area,
touch Cancel and repeat the area
selection process. If your selected area
contains a freeway, the system will
prompt you with a pop-up box saying,
"Do you want to avoid freeways?"
Answering "No" allows you to enter a
route through an avoided area on a
freeway, and skip the "Avoid area
caution box" (see Pop-ups and
Disclaimers on page 61).
Say or select Done to return to the Edit
area screen. When you return, the
"Vicinity" field is automatically filled in
by the system. Re-edit the area "Name"
if desired. Select Done on the Edit
avoid area screen to finish editing.
Your new avoided area will now appear
on the "Avoid area" list screen, and be
viewable on the map screen.
NOTE:
• You can select areas to avoid,
however you cannot select roads or
areas that you want the system to use
for routing.
• If you are drawing a box around a
road as an area to avoid, ensure the
following: When you draw the box,
make sure that the road or portion of
a road that you encircled includes an
intersection. For instance, in the
example above, highway 213 will be
avoided, but Van Ness will not be
avoided because it lacks an
intersection in the enclosed box.
