NOTE: It is not safe to attempt to alter settings on your Pocket PC while you are driving. Either have a passenger make changes, or pull over to a safe area.

Driver Safety Screen

The Driver Safety Screen displays a text-only screen when your speed exceeds 16 k.p.h. and is the recommended view for safe driving. When you’re within about 1 kilometer of a turn or driving less than 16 k.p.h., CoPilot automatically switches to the map display.

At the bottom of the Map Screen are the estimated time of arrival (ETA) at your next destination and distance to that destination, and one customizable data line (see p. 50). Three frame options are available (see p. 43).
