the Map Pointer on a map item and then determine the distance to that 
point from your current location. Access the Map Page Options Menu,

ENTER 

to activate. To measure 

between two selected points on the Map, move the Map Pointer to the 
fi rst map point you want to measure from, press 

ENTER 

and then move 

the Map Pointer to the second map point. Press 

QUIT

 to cancel.

Turning Declutter On/Off

This Map Page option allows you to remove map item titles and icons  

that clutter the view of roadways especially when the map is zoomed to a 
scale that is partially obscured by titles and icons which remain the same 
size no matter what the map scale. 

Access the Map Page Options Menu, select “Turn Declutter On” and 

press 

ENTER 

to activate. When you access the menu again the “Turn 

Declutter Off” option will display.
