to a calculated level once you hit CLEAR CURSOR. If you would prefer to manually control the zoom level all the time, turn off the Auto Zoom feature, as described later in this section.
Using the Map Orientation Button
There are three different ways to view the map. Whenever the cursor is up, the Map Orientation button can be found in the bottom right corner of the screen. Touch this button to switch among North Up, Track Up, and 3D.
North Up always shows the map with North at the top of the screen. Track Up rotates the map so that the direction you're traveling is at the top of the screen. 3D renders the path ahead from a position above and behind your current position, so that the display on the map more closely matches what you'll actually see through your windshield. Prac- tice some with each mode, and find out which one is right for you.
Using the Location Information Button
There's one more button that appears whenever the cursor is up. The Location Information button appears in the top right corner of the screen. You can always use this button to bring up a screen showing details on the location selected by the map cursor. This could be a Point of Interest such as a restaurant or gas station, or a con-
tact that you've saved, or simply a map location that you'd like to visit.
As we mentioned, whenever you press the Location Information button, the Location Information Screen appears. The Location Information Screen will include as much information as possible about the location that you've selected. If it's simply a cursor location, this may include only the lat/lon coordinates and the distance and bearing to the loca- tion, although a cursor location close to a road will also have the street address. If it's a Point of Interest the information should include street address and even the shop's phone number.
