Setting the Map Modes (2D or 3D)

The map is normally displayed in 3D mode (perspective view) but you can set the map to 2D mode (top down

.

Setting Zoom Levels

Select the zoom level that best suits your needs.  Note that zoom levels are limited in 3D mode.  As you zoom out

point chosen at the top of the screen.

3. Tap the 

 button in the top left corner.

4. If an active route already exists, first you need to define what to do with this new route point: 

Replace Destination

: the next destination is cleared and replaced with the one selected from the Pan 

screen.

Go There Now

: the selected location is inserted in the route as an intermediate destination before the next 

destination. 

Add To Trip

: the selected destination is added to the end of the current trip.

5. Tap the large GO 

 button on the right to return to the 

Map

 screen and begin navigating.

 

Note: 

if the panned position does not match an existing street address (i.e. the destination is not along a road or 

street that is stored in the map database), the guidance will stop on the road that is closest to your destination. A 
dashed line to your final destination will then be displayed on the map.
