About viewing the map

You can view the map in the same way as you might look at a traditional paper map. The map shows
your current location and many other locations such as Favourites and POIs.
To view the map in this way, tap View map or View route in the Main menu.
You view different locations on the map by moving the map across the screen. To move the map,
touch the screen and drag your finger across the screen.
To select a location on the map, tap the location on the map. The cursor highlights the location and
displays useful information about the location in an information panel. Tap the information panel to
create a Favourite or plan a route to that location.
