straight-line distancing for places that are miles

away from your current location. In the example above,

the current location is Olathe, Kansas, and the new

point is Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Measuring Distances

Measuring Distances Between Two Places

You can get an idea of how far two points are from each other by using the Measure Distance feature.

This feature measures from point to point in a straight line. It does not consider roads.

To measure the distance between two points, make sure you are currently viewing the Map page. Then,

press the unit or remote MENU key. A Menu page will appear. Select Measure Distance from this page. An

on-screen pointer (a blue thumb tack) at your current physical location (or current point) will appear on

the Map page. In our example below, the current location is the Midland Theater.

Touch a point anywhere on the Map page. A dotted line that extends from the on-screen pointer to your

new point will appear:

Coordinates of your map

pointer

Item under your map pointer

Distance and direction

from the thumb tack to

the map pointer .

The coordinates of the

new location you

selected (the Bistro).

The new location, the

Bistro, is .1 miles and

244° from the thumb

tack.
