1. What you see on the screen
1.1. The main screen
The main screen of TomTom Navigator -HP Edition- is used to navigate to your destination. Your position
is displayed on the map using your GPS receiver. If your GPS receiver is switched off, or has not (yet)
determined a clear position from the GPS satellites, the main screen displays your last known position.
To emphasize the fact that your actual position is unknown, the screen is displayed in black and white.

The dark red path indicates the calculated route. The route instructions will guide you along this path to
reach your destination.
Your next driving instruction shows an arrow for the direction to follow and a distance indicator
(presented in your distance units preference) when to do it. The bottom of the screen shows the
street name you will reach if you follow the current driving instruction. If the "sound off" indicator is not
shown, the displayed instruction will be accompanied by voice instructions. If necessary, use the sound
on preference to switch on the voice instructions.
To increase or decrease the scale of the map, tap to zoom in or to zoom out relative to your
current position. This keeps working when covered by the "next highway" indicator.
The journey information shows the current time, estimated time of arrival and the time left to reach
your destination.
Note:
When the battery is low, a "low battery" warning symbol will start blinking in the area where you normally
see your "current speed".
Ignoring the planned route
TomTom Navigator -HP Edition- is very flexible. If you take a turn different from the one in the instruction
( by mistake or on purpose) TomTom Navigator -HP Edition- will adjust almost instantly to the new
situation. It will keep guiding you to your current position as fast as it can calculate.

roads, streets, rivers and lakes, points of interest (such as petrol stations, restaurants and hospitals) etc.

favourite locations or your current departure and destination.

1.5. The schematic view
Instead of the main screen, a much simpler, schematic design can be used to display driving instructions.
Some people prefer the simplicity of this "at-a-glance" schematic display.
You can switch to the schematic display using the turn off map display preference.
You can also set TomTom Navigator -HP Edition- to hide the map only when you go faster than a certain
speed.
