You can pinpoint your exact location by moving the pin on the map or use the Satellite view in the upper left-hand corner of the map to give you a better visual for finding your home (B).

Use can also enter your precise Latitude and Longitude as an alternate method to pinpoint your exact location (C).

When you are satisfied with your settings, press the Update button (D).

The Location tab of the "Location and Modes" page allows you to set your hub location by [A], your postal code, [B] by dragging the hub icon on a map, to its approximate location or [C] by entering the exact latitude and longitude of your hub's location. Press the "Update" button in the lower right when you are satisfied with your location settings.

Modes

Your current modes will all be listed here (E). To change a mode name, type in the new name and press Update or press Delete to remove the mode.
