Checking and modifying the current route
Changing road types used
To recalculate the current route with different
road type preferences, follow the steps below.
❒
To let the route fit your needs, you can also
set which road types are to be considered
for or to be excluded from the route if
possible. Excluding a road type is a
preference. It does not necessarily mean
total prohibition.
❒ If your destination can only be accessed
using some of the excluded road types,
they will be used but only as much as
necessary. In this case a warning icon will
be shown on the route parameter, and the
part of the route not matching your
preference will be displayed in a different
colour on the map.
➲ For details, refer to “Checking route
parameters and accessing route related
functions” on page 50.
1. Touch [Menu] on the map screen.
The “Navigation Menu” screen appears.
➲
For details of the operations, refer to
“Screen switching overview” on page 27.
2. Touch [More...], then [Settings].
3. Touch [Route Settings].
4. Touch any of the listed road types.
If needed, scroll the list for all road types. The
following options can be set for route
calculation:
• Motorways:
Set whether to avoid motorways when you
are driving a slow car or you are towing
another vehicle.
• Period Charge:
Set whether to include toll roads with
restricted time access where you can
purchase a pass or vignette to use the road
for a longer period of time. This option can
be enabled or disabled separately from toll
roads.
• Per-use Toll:
Set whether to include toll roads where
there is a per-use charge. The navigation
system includes toll roads by default.
• Ferries:
Set whether to include ferries. The
navigation system includes ferries by
default.
• Carpool/HOV:
Sets whether to include the carpool or HOV
lanes. The navigation system excludes
carpool or HOV by default.
❒ Carpool or HOV lanes can be used if a
given number of passengers are travelling
in the vehicle.
• Unpaved Roads:
Set whether to include unpaved roads. The
navigation system excludes unpaved roads
by default.
• Calculate Green Alternative:
If the selected routing method is not
“Green”, you can have your route
compared to the best green alternative on
the screen when confirming the route. If this
alternative is much better than the selected
method, you can quickly switch to “Green”
mode.
5. Touch [Back] to confirm the changes.
The navigation system recalculates the route.
The orange line now shows the new
recommended route.
Modifying the route
When navigation is already started, there are
several ways to modify the current route. The
following sections describe some of those
options.
Selecting a new destination when a
route is already set
If you already have a recommended route and
you select a new destination, the navigation
system will ask you whether to start a new
route, add a new waypoint to the route or
append the newly selected destination at the
end of the current route.
