points of interest in many different categories. Seven different POI icons can be programmed to appear on the map. These icons indicate the locations and names of the nearest ATMs, Banks, Gas Stations, Restaurants, Hotels, Parking Garages, and Grocery Stores. Three of the 7 categories of icons can be displayed on the map screen at one time.

Routing Options

You can program the system to minimize the use of toll roads and freeways or to provide the quickest route. If you go off course at any time, the system can automatically recalculate a route to the destination from your present location.

System Limitations

The DVD-ROM that is included with your system contains the most recent map data available at the time of production. Because of changes in streets, neighborhoods, and business locations, there may be situations where the navigation sys- tem is not able to route you to your desired destination by the entry method you have chosen. If this occurs, choose another entry method.

Software upgrades are available to keep your system current. To obtain information about upgraded map data, please call Alpine Customer Service at 1-866-733-5492 (Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm Eastern Standard Time).

Weak GPS reception caused by the obstruction of satellite signals (tall buildings, tunnels, indoor parking lots).

Road mismatch. If there is an adjacent road within ap- proximately 35-100 feet (10-30 meters) of your current position, the system may display your vehicle on the adja- cent road.
