How to use Maps+

1. Maps+ is available on select 2018 model year and newer vehicles. The app can be found in the Apps* menu on your vehicle’s infotainment system.
   
   
2. Launch the app by tapping the Maps+ icon on your vehicle’s center display.
   
   
3. Accept the Maps+ Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
   
   
4. Once you accept, you will be taken to the Maps+ main screen.

1. On the main map screen, you can interact with the map by swiping to move the map, pinching to zoom and using a two-finger swipe to tilt the map.
   
   
2. If you navigate the screen away from the vehicle, you will see a re-center button appear that you can use to return to your vehicle's location.
   
   
3. You can also use the compass button to toggle between “North-is-up” and “Forward-is-up” views. When “North-is-up” view is on, the top of your map screen will always point north. “Forward-is-up” view will make sure your vehicle is always pointing toward the top of the map screen when driving forward.
   
   

• Note: Some features of the app are not available while the vehicle is in motion. When the vehicle is in motion, features should only be used by the passenger. The “North-is-up” view is only available in Route Preview mode,  and not while actively navigating. While in an active route, “Forward-is-up” is the default view.

1. From the main screen, press the magnifying glass icon in the lower left corner to search for an address or enter a search term like “groceries.”

• Categories include coffee, groceries, parking and more
   

2.    To navigate to a destination on the Free Drive map screen, press the Points of Interest (POI) icon on the touchscreen. To select a destination that’s not a POI, press and hold the location for a few seconds.

• On the Route Preview screen, you may see an alternate route displayed that is a similar time or faster. Tap this route to select it if desired
  
  

3.    If you ask the available Alexa Built-In^† to search for an address or Point of Interest, Alexa will load the destination in Maps+.
 

• For example, you can say, “Alexa, give me directions to 123 Main Street.”
