Creating, Editing, or Deleting a Trip on an Automotive Device Using Trip Planner

Creating a multiple-point trip allows navigation among several points. Trips can be saved to the device's internal storage for use at a later date by using Trip Planner. The device will store up to 100 trips.

This Video is a Quick and Easy way to Learn how to Use Trip Planner.

To Create a Trip

2. Touch Trip Planner. Touch the down arrow to scroll.

3. Touch New Trip

4. Touch Select Start Location

NOTE: The Start Location is the first stop on the route. You can use your current location as the starting location, but it isn't necessary. The device will skip your current location if that is where you are when it begins to navigate.
