I don't have the nav up in front of me, but I do this all the time to see the text of the route that's planned for me. Press the 'Tune' knob in to get the nav menu, then select turn view, then press the button that sets the screen to always show the turn by turn list. You'll see all the streets/freeways that you'll be traveling, which directions you'll be turning when you get to them, and how much farther it is to each one.
