Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the
GPS receiver may not receive the necessary information
from the satellites.
Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device
display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination,
and the approximate distance to it is shown inside the
compass ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route
and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in
a straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as
buildings and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences
in altitude are not taken into account when calculating the
distance. Route guidance is active only when you move.
To set your trip destination, select

destination
 and a landmark as the destination, or enter
the latitude and longitude coordinates.
