If you are making a long trip, you may find the Trip Information page to be very useful. It indicates your current speed and many helpful statistics about your trip. Be certain to reset the Trip Computer before beginning a trip (see next page). If you make frequent stops, leave the StreetPilot powered on in order to receive satellites. This allows the unit to accurately measure elapsed time during the trip.

Compass Ribbon - Shows your current compass heading while moving with a red indicator arrow. Speed - This is the current vehicle speed, displayed in miles or kilometers per hour. Odometer - A running total of distance traveled, based upon the distance between second-by-second location readings, since the Trip Computer was last reset. Mileage Log - Allows you to use up to four different mileage odometers for recording trip distances. You can also rename each mileage log (see next page).
