above, but starts from the Main Menu’s Routes option (see page 51).  Once you have 
selected the desired location and displayed an information page, use the on-screen 
‘Goto’ button to navigation to that location.
Manual Routes—To create a manual route, you enter each point in the route, start-
ing with your departure point, then any interim locations and, fi nally, your destination.  
Manual routing is best suited for longer routes, especially when travelling from city to 
city via interstate or U.S. highways.To Start a New Route:1. Press the MENU key twice to view the Main Menu.
2. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to highlight ‘Routes’ and press ENTER.
