122The following route criteria are available:
Dynamic navigation
Select on or off. The dynamic navigation function optimises a route plan by
using the most current TMC traffic messages to recalculate routes and avoid
traffic jams etc.
For more information about the dynamic navigation function, please refer to
⇒ page 100.
Route options
If you select fast , the system will calculate a route that takes you to your desti-
nation as quickly as possible. If you select short the system will calculate a
route that is as short as possible.
Motorway
Comprising the options include or exclude from the route. By choosing avoid
Motorway , the system will attempt to plan a route without motorway
sections. However, if the final destination is more than 300 km away,
motorway sections will not be avoided.
Ferry
Comprising the options include or exclude from the route. By choosing avoid
Ferry , the system will attempt to plan a route without using ferry connections.
Toll road
Comprising the options include or exclude from the route. By choosing avoid
toll road , the system will attempt to plan a route without using toll roads.
Time-restricted road
Comprising the options include or exclude from the route. If you select avoid
time-restricted road the system will try to exclude such roads when calcu-
lating the route. However, only those roads stored on the navigation DVD as
time-restricted roads can be avoided.
When avoid has been selected these roads will be avoided regardless of the
time of day and the day of the week. This means that roads which are blocked at night and therefore listed as time-restricted, will always be excluded from
the route if this option is activated.
Season-restricted road
Comprising the options include
or exclude from the route. If you select avoid
season-restricted road the system will try to exclude such roads when calcu-
lating the route. However, only those roads stored on the navigation DVD as
season-restricted roads can be avoided.
When avoid has been selected these roads will be avoided regardless of the
season. If a road is, for example, closed in winter, it will be excluded in the
route calculation even during the summer months.
Motorrail
Comprising the options include or exclude from the route. When you have
selected avoid Motorrail , the system will attempt to plan a route without
using Motorrail sections. However, only those sections stored on the naviga-
tion DVD as Motorrail can be avoided.
Note
•If you would like to avoid a route criterion but this makes route guidance
impossible, this criterion is still included when calculating the route (e.g.
ferry to Ireland). A voice message will inform you of this.•If the navigation does not display a detour route, although dynamic navi-
gation function is on and a traffic jam has been reported on the planned
route, this is because the estimated time required for the detour is longer
than the estimated time required for remaining on the route with the traffic
jam.
