GPS BASIC OVERVIEW
THIS IS “MUST READ” MATERIAL!
Congratulations! You have purchased a state-of-the-art Global Positioning System (GPS). Once you
understand the basics of GPS, you can easily use your new GPS system to help you arrive at your
desired locations quickly and easily. The key points are listed below.
SCREEN VIEWS
Your GPS system offers several screen viewing options. Royal recommends the screen view shown
below. This view offers fast and complete guidance that works best with the system’s voice prompts.

VOICE PROMPTS – ESSENTIAL GPS LOGIC
“HIGHWAY ENTRANCE – HIGHWAY EXIT”
GPS systems consider many roads with assigned Interstate, State or US route numbers to be highways.
When driving on or approaching a highway, your GPS system will NOT prompt you to turn left or to
turn right. Instead it will say “HIGHWAY ENTRANCE” or “HIGHWAY EXIT”. A quick glance at
the GPS screen, when safe to do so, will clearly indicate the driving action necessary.

“HIGHWAY JUNCTION AHEAD”
Your GPS system uses voice prompts to direct you to your location. Most are self-explanatory,
especially with an occasional quick glance at the screen of the GPS system. One exception is the
“HIGHWAY JUNCTION AHEAD” voice prompt. You may hear this prompt as you drive down a
highway, even though you don’t see another highway joining the highway on which you are driving. In
those cases, your GPS system does see another highway. An example and explanation are listed below.
Let’s say you are driving along a highway called Route #1. And let’s say you have been driving on that
highway for years. What you may not realize is that as you drive along, Route #1 may be called by
another name through different areas. To you, it may still be Route #1 but to someone living in that
area, the address for that particular stretch of Route #1 may be Broad Street, for example.
As you drive along Route #1 and approach that stretch of Route #1 that is also called Broad Street, you
will hear a “HIGHWAY JUNCTION AHEAD” voice prompt. The reason you are hearing that prompt
is that according to GPS logic, Route #1 is connecting or joining with Broad Street. A quick glance at
your GPS screen, when safe to do so, will give you a clear indication of any turns you may need to
make. If you see the word “Continue” anywhere on the screen, no turn is necessary.
