Customizing the Map

'Customize Map' Screen
'Orientation' Options
22
When you select Customize Map from the Map Page options, a page is displayed with three file
tabs, 'General Settings', 'Points', and 'Vehicle' (top left picture).
'General Settings' File Tab
The General Settings File Tab includes a map window to the side. It allows you to monitor the
vehicle' s motion and view the effect of changes you have made immediately. You may even zoom IN and
OUT on this map window.
Map Detail - A slider control allows you to increase or decrease the amount of map information shown
on a given map range. You can increase the detail level when driving in non-urban areas in order to see
more information, in urban areas, you may want to decrease the map detail for increased map clarity.
Orientation - Allows you to set the orientation of the map display. You can choose North Up or
Track Up (middle left picture). The advantage of North Up is that it looks like paper maps. The
advantage of Track Up is that the picture on the screen represents what you see out the windshield of
your vehicle, placing streets and points near the top of the screen that are in front of your vehicle.
Auto Zoom - When the Auto Zoom is On and the StreetPilot is navigating on a Direct Goto or Route,
the StreetPilot will automatically adjust the map zoom so that the next waypoint is on the map screen.
Auto Zoom is set for Off at the factory.
