Changing the Routing Method
The system lets you select the way you
want to drive to your destination. Before
selecting OK to calculate a route, you
can change the routing method by using
the CHANGE METHOD scroll bar
back ( ) or forward ( ) buttons. The
route choices will appear in the address
box.
NOTE:
When you are en route and want to
change the routing method, press the
MENU button, and select Change
Routing Method on the Change
route by screen.  “Direct Route” (the factory default) is
the route that is the quickest (least
time) and is usually the best choice. If
you choose any other method, it
becomes the new default for all future
routing. Make sure to check the
routing method if the displayed route
is not what you expected to see.
 “Easy Route” produces a route with the least turns.
 “Maximize Freeways,” “Minimize Freeways,” and “Minimize Toll
Roads” are also available.
NOTE:
If the trip is greater than 100 miles, then
“Minimize Freeways” and “Minimize
Toll Roads” may be grayed out. This is
normal. The generated route may not be the
route you would choose. For safety
reasons, the system
generally applies the
following rules to your route:
 It tries to avoid shortcuts through residential areas.
 Right turns are favored over left turns or U-turns.
 Restricted turns (turns that cannot be made during certain hours) are not
used for routing.
