Now that you are familiar with WorldNav features you are ready to begin navigating. When you turn on your device the GPS will search to acquire satellite signal. Once you have picked up signal you can simply press <Where To> and enter a destination to navigate from your current location. If you are indoors or unable to pick up satellite signal, you may want to set your home address manually. You can also create routes by entering start and end addresses for later use.

When you are driving, the screen will display your location in route and you will be given voice instructions for when and where to turn. Your destination will be indicated on the map with a checkered flag. Once you have reached your destination the route will be cleared and will be ready to navigate to your next destination.

2.3 Map Mode

The WorldNav software allows you to switch between Navigation and Map mode. You will automatically be in Navigation mode when you travel with the GPS locked into position. If you care to browse the map, simply touch the screen anywhere on the map area, you will then see a plus and minus symbol which will allow you to zoom in and out. You can use your finger to drag the map in any direction as desired. Road colors will vary based on the type of road. For example, in Day Mode, the colors of the roads are as follows:

Gray - Residential Yellow - County or State Orange - Highway Green - State Preferred Truck Route Pink - Truck Restricted Road

When you see "Where To" and "Menu" on the screen that means you are in "Map" mode.
