To open the 'Road Routing' tab, press the MENU key twice to open the Main Menu. Select 'Setup'
from the vertical tab list. Then select 'Road Routing' from the row of tabs along the top of the page.
Route Preference – allows the unit to calculate a route for:
•
Faster Time: Time is used as the criterion for calculating your route. Routes calculated with this
setting are faster to drive but may be longer in distance.
•
Shorter Distance: Distance is used as the criterion for calculating your route. Routes calculated
with this setting are shorter in distance but may take more time to drive.
•
Off Road: A direct line from your current physical location to your destination is displayed. This
is useful when you are travelling outside of detailed map coverage areas or where no roads exist.
Ask Me My Preference – determines whether you will be asked to select a 'Route Preference' (Faster Time,
Shorter Distance, or Off Road) before route calculations.
Calculation Method
–
sets how the unit searches for the perfect route.
•
Quickest Calculation: Fastest results, but it might not fi nd the best route.
•
Quick Calculation: Takes a bit more time to calculate, but generates a better quality route.
•
Better Route: Even better quality route, but uses a longer calculation time.
•
Best Route: Most optimal route, but takes the longest time to calculate.
Calculate Routes for
–
sets the route calculation for the particular vehicle you are in. By specifying
which vehicle type you are driving, you optimize the route for your vehicle type because some roads have
vehicle-based restrictions. For example, a street or gate may be accessible by emergency vehicles only, or
a residential street may not allow commercial trucking traffi c.
Avoid – allows you to avoid certain road types and maneuvers on your route. The unit uses these road
types only if alternative routes take you too far out of your way or if no other road is available. You can
select to avoid ' U-Turns', ' Toll Roads', ' Highways', and/or ' Unpaved Roads'.
