The Magellan RoadMate will calculate the route. When the calculations are complete,
the Map screen will be displayed. The distance represents travel on roads as well as
the straight lines where no road data is present.
The conditions for basemap routing apply. Where there is no road data, a straight line
will connect your current position with the nearest highway onramp, and from the
highway offramp to the city center (See page 19).
Accessing Map Files
The Magellan RoadMate has the capability of storing detailed map files in its internal memory, or on an SD card. The
files are accessed in the same way. If however, you have only one map file stored, this file will be active by default.
