Can the NAV still hold the course and give you directions once the disc is ejected during a route? I read the manual and it doesn't state it. I know some will say, "Well, just check it", but I don't have time. I'm driving to Roanoke tomorrow and if it doesn't, I going to install my XM tonight. I can't deal with local radio! Thanks.

 

I believe it does. Once your route is calculated, etc. you can remove the disc (at least I think so).

 

Yes you can, the last destination and directions will be held in memory.

 

Yes. The NAV CD can be ejected and the NAV function will still work. The last several destinations are retained in memory.

The NAV keeps a certain amount of area data in memory, so you can even change routes without reinserting the CD as long as it's local to the area already in memory. As long as you don't disconnect your battery leads, it will retain the info.

If the NAV needs more info, it will display a message asking for the CD again. At that point you can give it a quick update (it takes only seconds), and then remove the NAV CD again.

 

As the others have answered, YES it can be removed once the route is stored in the memory.
