Using The Map Page Features - Garmin 2610/2650 Owner's Manual

Using the Map Page Features

The Map page comes with many useful features that can help you as you view cities or places, and as
you navigate routes. If you are a new StreetPilot owner, practice using these features while your vehicle is
stationary.
Map Tools Bar
The StreetPilot comes with a "map tools" bar, which is a series of icons on the left-hand side of the Map page
that enable you to zoom in to and out of the current areas shown on your Map page. To activate the map
tools bar, simply touch any part of the Map page and the map tools bar will appear:
Touch the arrow to toggle between activating and
hiding the map tools bar
Touch the + to zoom in to an area, up to 120 feet
(thus providing greater detail)
Touch the - to zoom out of an area, up to 800 miles
(thus providing less detail)
When the panning hand is present, you can move
across the map area with your finger and the map will
move. Touch the hand to toggle to a special "box"
The white arrow at the top of the map tools bar allows you to toggle between activating and hiding the map
tools bar. The zoom icons feature a "+" magnifying glass that allows you to zoom in to an area on your Map
page, and a "-" magnifying glass that lets you zoom out of an area. The panning hand allows you to move
around the Map page by touching the screen (touchscreen) with your finger; this action is called "panning."
Panning allows you to "move" the viewing area on the Map page in order to view areas beyond the displayed

An alternative to using the touchscreen for zooming in
and out of an area on the Map page is to use the IN and
OUT zoom buttons located at the top of your remote
control. An alternative to "panning," or touching the map
with your finger and moving the map, is to use the thumb
stick on your remote control.
