Reference17The top of the Map Page indicates your Driving Status:The direction you are driving; one of eight possible directions - North (N),South (S), East (E), West (W), NE, SE, SW, or NW.! The name of the road or street you are driving on (if the StreetPilot hasselected a road).! Often, the name of a nearby city or town is displayed. You may not necessarily bewithin the boundaries of this city, and you may even be within the boundary ofanother city. Cities are stored in the StreetPilot as points, if a city name is displayed,it is because it is the nearest reference point to your current location.The Navigation Information Window is shown to the right of the map display area. If theStreetPilot is not navigating to a destination, the Navigation Information area displays a compassindicating your direction of travel at the top, your speed and the current time of day.Note:The driving direction shown on theStreetPilot may not exactly match amagnetic compass. This is because theStreetPilot uses “True North” as a referenceinstead of “Magnetic North”.Note:The information displayed for the DrivingStatus and the Navigation Informationwindow changes if the StreetPilot isnavigating to a destination, either on a DirectGOTO or a Route.
