A Sample Trip

Suppose you and a friend want to go to a concert on the campus of Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey. You know the approximate location of your destination, but you're unfamiliar with the area. There's no need to worry about the trip: CoPilot will guide you every step of the way!

First, you enter your destination. (You won’t need to enter a starting place – if your GPS receiver is picking up signals, CoPilot already knows where you're starting from.) In Guidance Mode, your friend clicks Destination, then Add, then Point of Interest. She types “Princeton University” in the POIs that start with box and clicks Find. In a few seconds, CoPilot finds “Princeton University” in the database and your friend clicks Select, then Add, and then Go!

Now you're ready to drive to your destination!

Once the car is moving, your location shows up as a series of arrows drawn on the map. A green-highlighted line from your present location to your destination shows the route for you to follow. In addition, CoPilot prompts you before each turn if Speaking is turned on.

CoPilot leads you into Princeton without a problem. However, as you drive along Witherspoon Street approaching the center of town, you see a traffic jam caused by an accident up ahead. You decide to turn onto Wiggins Street in order to save some time.

No Problem! Within seconds, CoPilot tells you that you are no longer on the correct route and automatically gives you new directions to follow from your new position (illustrated on the next page). You still get to the concert on time and enjoy a relaxing trip!
