Driving to Your Destination
Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route,
"Recalculating..." is displayed at the
top of the screen. The system will
recalculate the route from your current
location and direction to the desired
destination then give you a new route
instruction. This is done automatically
if you have set Rerouting to
AUTOMATIC on the SET UP screen
(Other) (see page 102 ).
If the Rerouting option in SET UP is
set to MANUAL, "Off route" appears
at the top of the screen when you leave
the calculated route. Say "Recalculate,"
or select Recalculation whenever
you want the system to perform a
recalculation.

Navigation System
Off-road Tracking
If you drive away from a mapped road,
"Not on a digitized road" appears at the
bottom of the screen.
The map screen starts displaying a
series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show
the path you have taken if Off-road
Tracking on the SET UP screen
(Other) is set to ON (see page 112 ).
By following the dots, you can
backtrack to the mapped road you
originally left. "Breadcrumbs" may
occasionally be displayed in urban
areas, such as large parking lots in
shopping malls, or in new subdivisions
where the roads are not yet in the
database. In other cases, you may see
dots if the system temporarily goes off
route, like in a parking garage where
the GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20,
1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 mile (or 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter) map scales. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob to change scales
if necessary.
Off-road Tracking continues for
approximately 150 miles; dots at
the beginning of the trail will start
disappearing when you exceed that
distance. When you reach a mapped
road, the system stops displaying dots.
