Normal Mode / Expert Mode
– When the normal mode ON, the GNAV20 will ask you if you want to go
to an address, place, intersection, freeway, or to a location in the address book every time the GNAV20 is
powered up. Please refer to Chapter 11 for Expert Mode instructions.
Route Preview
– When the route preview is enabled the GNAV20 will calculate the route after you have
entered your destination information, and will list the motorways on which you will travel. You will then
have the option of accepting the route, avoiding one motorway, or avoiding multiple motorways.
When the route preview is enabled, the GNAV20 will also tell you the distance to your destination before
giving the first turn instruction. This information is not given when the route preview is disabled, however
you can always ask the GNAV20 for the distance to your destination at any time by saying, “
navigator
(
beep
)
distance
”.
Training Mode
– The GNAV20 ships with the training mode in the ON position. The training mode is
designed to walk you through the process of entering address and place information. Once you are
familiar with the system you will probably want to turn the training mode off, which will place the system
in the normal mode. If you want to see how the normal mode functions before turning the training mode
off, you can answer “
yes
” when the GNAV20 asks “
Are you familiar with this navigation system?
” at
startup.
If the training mode is OFF, and you say only the word “
navigator
”, the system will go back into the
training mode until the power is cycled.

Confirmation Beeps
– These are the confirmation beeps and boops that occur during destination entry,
and after giving commands. If you disable beeps, the GNAV20 will not give you any feedback, so you
will not know if the GNAV20 has missed a command or a letter during destination entry. With the beeps
turned off you will be able to enter information at a faster pace, but that could increase chance of error.
Turn Beeps
– When the GNAV20 ships with the Turn Beeps enabled. The turn beep is the chime that
sounds approximately 50 feet before the upcoming turn. If you choose to disable the turn beeps, the chime
will no longer sound.
