Route Settings

CoPilot Live offers a number of routing options that
change the way your route is calculated

.

Select

Menu > Settings > Routing. You will

need to scroll down to see some of the options.

Vehicle Type: Select Automobile or RV.

RV Height Restrictions: CoPilot uses a 12’6” or

13’ height restriction for RV routing.

Routing Type: Select Quickest, Shortest, Avoid

Expressways or Scenic.

Toll Roads: Select whether you want CoPilot to

Use toll roads, Always Avoid them, or to Avoid If Possible (where
practical and reasonable).

Check

Avoid Ferries to avoid ferry miles on your route.

Choose

Avoid Propane-Restricted Tunnels if necessary (e.g. RV trips).

Check

International Borders Open to allow your route to cross

international borders. When this option is not checked, CoPilot won’t cross
international borders even when it would be more practical to do so.
