Introduction USING THE STREETPILOT IN SIMULATOR MODE Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the routing features of the StreetPilot by practicing creating routes in simulator mode. Simulator mode only works when the GPS navigation is turned off. To do this, press the MENU key on the StreetPilot. When the Menu page appears, select the 'Use Indoors' icon. GPS will be turned off. Now, when you create a route, the unit asks if you want to simulate driving the route. Select Yes, and the StreetPilot gives driving instructions for the entire route. vi Manual Conventions • This manual refers to the StreetPilot as a "StreetPilot," "unit," or "GPS receiver." It makes no distinction between these terms. "StreetPilot" refers to both the 2620 and 2660 models unless specifically stated. • This manual uses the term "Map page" when referring to pages that have maps. In all other instances, the terms "page," "screen," and "window" are used interchangeably. • This manual uses the words "button" and "key" interchangeably. • This manual uses the term "press" when you need to activate the keys on the StreetPilot or on the remote control. • Although you can either touch the screen to activate commands or use the remote control, most instruc- tions in this manual assume that you are using the touchscreen. • This manual uses "touch" and "select" interchangeably. When asked to touch or select an icon or tab, simply tap the icon or tab with your finger. Or, press in on the thumb stick that is located on your remote control. Practice using the remote control unit to improve your accuracy when activating commands. See page 4 to learn how to use it. OPERATE YOUR STREETPILOT IN "SAFE MODE" WHILE DRIVING Your StreetPilot is equipped with a 'Safe Mode' feature to improve driver safety. By default, this feature is enabled, but it can be turned off to allow a passenger to operate the unit. When your vehicle is moving, Safe Mode disables certain StreetPilot functions which require significant operator attention and may become a distraction to use while driving.
