Section 3:
Music Mode Operation
This section addresses the unit's
Music Mode
operation. Music Mode is
designed as a powerful but simple interface for playing back your music
collection while navigating. If you'd rather skip ahead, you can look at
Sec. 4 which starts on page 26 and is full of details on setting up and
customizing the iWAY's various options. Or you could turn to Sec. 5
starting on page 49, where you'll learn about Searching and how the
iWAY generates Turn-by-Turn routes.
Before you start playing your music, it's a good idea to learn about the
different menus, the two Page screens and how they work together. If
you've already read Sec. 2, then you already know what you need to
about the controls, so you can skip ahead to the one-page
Music Mode
Practice Run
on page 20.
The Power Button
The Power button turns the unit on and off and activates the backlight.
To turn on the unit, press
POWER
. To turn on the backlight, press
POWER
again. The unit has three preset backlight levels to select from. Repeat-
edly pressing
POWER
will cycle through the backlight settings and turn
off the backlight. To turn off the unit (or enter Standby mode), press and
hold the
POWER
key for 3 seconds. For complete details concerning
Standby mode, see the discussion of power button functions in Sec. 4.
If you find that your iWAY has locked up or become unresponsive, you can
force a restart by holding down the
POWER
button for 10-15 seconds.
Using the Touch Screen
At the beginning of Sec. 2 we gave detailed instructions on how to in-
teract with the iWAY's touch screen. If you skipped Sec. 2, you might
want to turn back to the heading "Using the Touch Screen" for some
handy tips. Otherwise, remember that all menus and dialogs can be
closed by pressing on the "X" icon in the menu's top right corner.
The Main Menu
When using the iWAY in either Map Mode or Music Mode, press the
M
ENU
button located in the top left corner of the screen to open the Main
Menu. The Main Menu contains commands that let you switch modes,
perform searches, or customize the iWAY’s behavior.
