Driving on a Direct Goto
After you have used the FIND key to find someplace that you would like to go, one of the
things you can do is select Go to it to select it as a destination and the StreetPilot will help guide you to it.
The Map Page on a Direct Goto
One of the first things you will notice is that the Map Page changes (picture below):
! The Driving Status at the top of the page tells you what direction to go (North, South,
etc.), as well as the name of the destination (nearest city, or next intersecting street,
depending on the mode).
! A bold line connects your current location and your destination. Note that this line
doesn’t follow roads, it is simply the shortest distance between the two points
If the Map Page is set up to show Navigation Info (as opposed to the Full Screen Map), the
following information is also shown:
! A Direction to Go pointer: the direction from your current location to the destination,
based on the direction you are driving.
! The Distance to Go.
! The Time to Go.
