I see that Nuvi 350 gives alerts when it is 0.2 miles away from turn, on highway, it tell you about around 1 miles. Is there any way, I can change ? Sometimes 0.2 miles can't give you enough time to change lane .
Thanks
Time for alert varies dependent upon speed

You can't change it, but the alert distance varies with the average speed of the road.

Thanks ! So If you are going
Thanks !
So If you are going faster than Avg speed of road, then alerts might be too late ? I wish they have given some option in S/w.

Actually, the alert distance is dependent upon the speed you are traveling. The faster you are going the further out the alert will be.
Kilometers
I know this sounds silly but on my nuvi, I get the alerts 1.5Km out which translates to about 1.2Mi (I guess this is one advantage of living north of the border!)
