Unpaved Roads; Motorways; Ferries; U-Turns - Mio P550 User Manual

6.3.3.1

Unpaved Roads

Unpaved roads are excluded by default, as they can be in a bad condition and you
usually cannot reach the speed limit on them.
6.3.3.2

Motorways

When driving a slow car or towing another vehicle, you may prefer not to take
motorways. In this case change the default green to red.
6.3.3.3

Ferries

The accessibility of temporary ferries is not necessarily included in the map data.
Furthermore you may need to pay fare, so you may consider disabling them from the
preset enabled status.
6.3.3.4

U-turns

Although displayed amongst road types, this is a type of action. Most drivers prefer to
replace them with a few normal left and/or right turns in the next few junctions, so it is
disabled by default.
Turning back on dual carriageways is not considered as a u-turn.
Note: Via points are handled as stopovers with regards to u-turns. It means disabling
u-turns on this page will avoid u-turns during the entire route if possible, but when
reaching a via point, the following part of the route may be planned starting in the
opposite direction.
6.3.3.5

Permit needed

To use some roads or enter some areas you may need special permit or permission
from the owners. These roads are excluded from your routes by default. Use this
switch if your vehicle is authorised to enter.
6.3.3.6

Toll Roads

Toll roads are included in your routes by default. If you wish to travel more to avoid
paying a toll, disabling them will make Mio Map plan the best toll-free route for you.
6.3.3.7

Cross-border Planning

By default Mio Map plans routes using the border crossing points. However if you live
near the border, you can disable border crossing with this switch to remain within one
country.
