Road types used or avoided in route
calculation:
MMES automatically recalculates the route if
you deviate from the proposed itinerary.
qGreen routing
Route calculation is not only about finding
the quickest or shortest route. You can also
check the fuel consumption and CO
2 emission
when planning a route, and you can create
cost effective routes with less effect on the
environment.
In Route settings, you can edit the parameters
of the vehicle. Enter the fuel consumption
values and the price of the fuel. You can also
select whether you want to see the difference
between your route and the green route even
if the selected routing method is not Green.
After the above parameters are set, select
as route planning method
to get a fast but also fuel-efficient route. Note
that travel cost and CO
2 emission calculations
are estimations only. They cannot take
elevations, turns, curves and traffic conditions
into account. Also, this routing is not meant
to give you the “greenest” route of all. It is still
important to travel quickly so the result is a
fast route with low fuel consumption and CO
2
emission.
Whichever route planning method is selected,
the Green details are also shown when you
confirm the route:
If the selected route planning method is not
Green, and you have allowed the application
to show the green alternative, the price, fuel
consumption and CO
2 emission differences
between your selected route and the Green
route are also shown on this screen:
Tap the field with these details to switch the
route to Green immediately.
qProximity alert points
The application can warn you for the alert
points you added or edited in advance when
you approach them. You can set up the
different alert types individually in Sound and
Warning settings (page 66).
The following alert types are available:
Audio warning: beeps can be played by
natural voice while you are approaching
one of these points, and an extra alert can
warn you if you exceed the given speed
limit while approaching.
Visual warning: the type of the alert point,
its distance and the related speed limit
appear on the Map screen while you are
approaching one of these.

Route Planning Method types:
Button Description
Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually the best selection for fast and normal cars.
Gives a quick but fuel-efficient route based on the fuel consumption data given in Route settings. Travel cost and CO2 emission
calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account.
Gives a short route to minimize the distance to travel. It can be practical for slow vehicles. Searching for a short route regardless
of the speed, this route type is rarely practical for normal vehicles.
Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult maneuvers. With this option, you can make MMES to take, for example, the
freeway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.
qUser profiles
If more drivers use MMES for navigating, their settings can be remembered by using one of the user profiles. Rename the profiles after tapping the edit
button on the right so that all users know which profile to use and switch between profiles by tapping its name. If you select a new profile, the application
restarts so that the new settings can take effect.
