Basic operation, start-up and Preferences Basic operation and start-up Be sure to read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION on pages 4 and 5 before the first use of the NAV ONE system. Power on/off After installation is complete and the vehicle is in an open area, turn on the unit (press and hold the POWER button on the side of the unit). Each time the unit is turned on, a start-up screen appears on the LCD followed by a safety reminder and an opportunity to select a language.
Text and list entries (spell and list modes) 56 Scroll feature in spell mode Text and list entries (spell and list modes) The spell and list modes are used to enter information or choose from lists when selecting destinations, entering data item names and editing entries. Most times, the system will default to list mode, but both methods are available by using the SPELL and LIST function buttons to toggle between them. Using a combination of the methods often is the fastest way to make an entry.
Destination selection, Route selection limits and Route calculation Destination selection Each trip begins with a destination in mind. The 2 Main menu provides five methods of choosing one. After choosing a method, press ENTER to use it. Where do you want to go? MAP Address/Intersection Point of Interest n A specific street address or an intersection of two streets by spelling or choosing from lists.
Address/intersection Address/intersection Where do you want to go? Starting with zip code When selecting an address or intersection, the best starting point is the zip code for the desired destination. By entering the zip code as the first element of the address, the NAV ONE system will zoom in and look at only that area. It will always return an associated state and either a single city or a short list to choose from if more than one city shares the zip code.
Point of interest Point of interest Selecting a POI as a destination allows a public place to be found without necessarily knowing the address. The NAV ONE database includes thousands of points of interest in over 40 categories from airports to museums to restaurants. This mode can also be used as a means of finding the address and telephone number of any location in the POI database — the data is shown in the final screen of each selection process.
Route guidance Route guidance Once a destination is chosen and a route is calculated, the NAV ONE system is ready to provide guidance to navigate the trip from the starting voice prompt, “Please proceed to the highlighted route,” until the final announcement, “Arrived at destination.” Navigation During navigation, four screens are available.
Off route events Off route events During a trip, the NAV ONE system offers help if a turn is missed or a side trip is taken from a calculated route. It also allows changes to be made enroute — including detours, changing route criteria and trip plans, and canceling navigation. Leaving a calculated route Within a short distance of the vehicle leaving a calculated route, the NAV ONE system will recognize the deviation and provide helpful information.
Other useful features Other useful features Where do you want to go? MAP Address/Intersection Point of Interest TRAIL Previous Destination Previous destination The NAV ONE system saves the most recent origin and the last nine destinations in memory for quick retrieval. Useful Tools Four functions are built into the NAV ONE system to provide added utility. ZOOM, PAN and HERE can be used whether or not a trip is in progress.
