Driving to Your Destination
Cancel Route
Cancels the current route (and any
waypoints) and returns you to the map
screen.
Detour
Calculates a detour route for you if
you encounter an unexpected obstacle
such as a closed road or extremely
heavy traffi c congestion. If a detour
is selected, the system will attempt to
recalculate a new route, avoiding the
next 5 miles (while on a freeway) or 1
mile (while on a surface street).
Avoid Streets
From the MENU screen (Route), if
you say or select Avoid Streets, the
system displays a list of streets that will
get you to your destination. This feature
allows you to avoid a street or streets
along your route. This is helpful if you
know of road construction, closures,
or excessive traffi c along the route.
Simply select the street or streets you
wish to avoid. You can store up to 10
streets to be avoided. You cannot avoid
your current street or the streets of

Change Route Preference
From the MENU screen (Route), if you
say or select Change Route Pref.,
then the Route Preference screen is
displayed. See Changing the Routing
Method on page 52 for details.
Waypoint
Waypoints allow you to add an
interim "pit stop" while traveling to
a destination. For instance, you may
want to stop for gas or food, and then
continue on to your destination.
Although you can enter up to fi ve places
including the destination at a time,
typically you may never use more than
one at a time.
Waypoints are routed to in the order
they were entered (number 1 fi rst, etc.),
with your fi nal destination routed to
last.
When you enter waypoints, they appear
on the map screen as small red fl ags
numbered 1-4.
