The Directions List is shown left; a Turn Preview is shown right.

Turn Preview allows you to leave your current position to focus mi- nutely on a particular turn in the path ahead. A close zoom range and large-font data boxes combine to help you see exactly the road condi- tions up ahead.

The Directions List, on the other hand, gives you a detailed description of the entire route – more information than you can see in the basic Map Mode. The Directions List tells you every step of the way, so you can get a very good idea what to expect further down the road.

The path described in the Directions List parallels the magenta route line on your Map Mode, and every entry in the list is shown on the map's route as a dot, as we mentioned. You can select any turn in the Directions List to open a Turn Preview screen for that instruction.

These tools can be very useful when checking a route through a known area. After the iWAY generates a route, open the Directions List and read through the steps to see if it generally matches the path you would take. If the route is over unknown ground, this can be a very useful way to prepare yourself for the path ahead.

Considering Temporary or Local Conditions

Whenever the iWAY notices that you have left the path it generated for
