When I am driving a route on the freeway and Traffi c
Rerouting is
ON
, sometimes the system provides a
detour route. Why is this?
The system will provide a detour route to your destination only if it can fi nd a
considerably faster route than the original one.
While traveling on my route on the freeway, the system
has me exit and take an alternate freeway with unknown
fl ow speeds or surface streets. Why is this?
Based on freeway congestion along your route, the system predicted that
taking an alternate freeway or surface streets would be faster. Use your own
experience to determine whether the alternate route would be faster.
How can I ignore the detour route and return to the
original route?
Turn Traffi c Rerouting to
OFF
in Setup, under Routing & Guidance (page

(800) 852-9696 and verify your account status. If your subscription has

account status, leave the vehicle running outside for 30 minutes to receive
the refresh. See page
