Routing
PROBLEM
My system does not route me the same way I would go. Why is this?
I entered a new route with vias that would create a loop starting and
ending at my current location, and turned off the ignition. When I
turned the system on again, the route was gone.
I stopped for coffee about 220 yards (200 meters) from my route
destination. When I started up again, the route was no longer in the
system.
I attempted to route to a destination that is not on a road, but the system
did not calculate a route.
I went more than 110 yards (100 meters) off my route, but the system
did not alert me.

EXPLANATION
In some situations, your local knowledge may generate a better route
than the data currently available to the system.
Shutting the system after entering a loop from your current location
cancels the route. The system assumes you reached your destination.
To avoid losing a loop route, do not enter it until you are ready to ride.
If you turn the ignition off when you are within 220 yards (200 meters)
of your destination, the system assumes you have reached your
destination.
The system will not calculate to a destination that is not within 1.2
miles (2 km) of a road in the database.
The automatic re-routing feature will normally give you visual and
voice alerts if you move more than 110 yards (100 meters) off route.
However, some situations, such as riding on a road that closely
parallels another road, may prevent activation of this feature because
the system may be reading your location on the other road, within the
110 yards (100 meters) limit. As explained in System Limitations, there
are elements that can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipment.
