6  Traveling on a Route

Map Screen

When a route has been calculated, the 
first maneuver and turn instructions will be 
displayed at the top of the screen. If sounds 
are enabled, the instruction will be spoken. 
The turn instructions include the name of the 
street that comes next in your Turn List and its 
distance. If you are not in the city in which the 
next street is, the name of the city is displayed 
instead.
As the route progresses, voice alerts will be 
used to prompt you of upcoming maneuvers.

Maneuver List

The Maneuver List displays all of the 
maneuvers to be made to complete the route 
and arrive at the destination. To view the 
Maneuver List, tap on the maneuver icon in 
the top left corner of the Map screen. 

Accessing the Maneuver List

When actively following a route, tap the 
maneuver icon in the top left corner of the 
Map screen.

Viewing a Maneuver

While the maneuver list is displayed, tap on 
any maneuver instruction to see a map view of 
the maneuver. 

Excluding a Maneuver

1.  This is used to modify the route to 

possibly avoid routing on a particular 
street.

2.  Access the Maneuver List.

3.  Tap the Avoid icon 

 for the maneuver 

you want to avoid.

4.  Tap Yes to confirm.
5.  The N477 receiver recalculates the route 

and the Map screen returns.

Types of Routes

There are a wide variety of methods you can 
use to create a route. Each method is discussed 
in the chapter which is associated with it. 

Routing Method

Just as you can use different methods to select 
a destination, the N477 can calculate the 
route several different ways. Routes can be 
calculated by the following methods:

Fastest Time 

(Fast): the fastest possible route 

provided the vehicle is able to travel at or near 
the speed limit.

Shortest Distance

 (Short): the shortest 

possible route.

Most Use of Freeway

:  creates a route that 

uses freeways whenever possible.

Least Use of Freeway

: creates a route that 

avoids use of freeways.
When a destination is selected, the N477 offers 
the route with the default selected routing 
method first.

Changing the Routing Method

You can view and compare routing options at 
any point of a trip: while you’re creating it, or
