MAP Coverage Areas

The map database is stored on a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) located in the navigation control unit. The database covers the 45 contiguous U.S. states and Canada.

Map Types

The maps that you view on the screen consist of two types of roads: "Verified roads" and "unverified roads." Verified roads have been driven by the database vendor. Information about the road's average speed, turn restrictions, or whether it is a one-way street are contained in the navigation system. Roads within metropolitan areas (detailed coverage), interstate freeways, and major roads connecting cities are typically "verified." They can be recognized on the screen (daytime setting) as the darker colored roads.

Unverified roads may be found in rural areas. The information about these roads may have inaccuracies. Therefore, they are shown for reference only. They can be recognized on the screen (daytime setting) as a light brown color. The navigation system will not give you guidance through these areas. If you enter a destination that includes or bypasses unverified areas, the system will alert you at the beginning of the trip and during the route when you enter an unverified area.

Canada Detailed Coverage Areas

Non-Detailed Coverage

Cities and towns in the non-detailed map coverage area are not fully mapped. In the city listings that come up on the screen, these are denoted by a "*" next to the name. Only major federal, state, and county roads leading to and through these cities and towns are mapped. These "verified" roads are shown in black. All other streets are "unverified," and are shown in light brown. You can enter a destination in these areas, but your guidance will stop at the last verified road nearest to your destination. You can then use the dotted line to manually navigate to your destination. See "Traveling to your destination" in the Navigation System Owner's Manual.
