3.3.4 Changing the road type
s used in route planning
To recalculate the active rout e with different road type preference s, do as follows.
These changes can also be made in Settings (page 80).
1. Select after selectin g on the MAP screen.
2. Select .
3. Select any of the listed ro ad types to modify the route. If needed, scroll the list
for all road types. You have the following options (their order depends on the
selected vehicle type):
• - You might need to avoid highways/freeways if you
are towing another vehicle.
• - Charge roads are pay roads where you can purchase a pass or vignette to use the road for a longer period of time. They
can be enabled or disabled separately from toll roads.
• - The navigation system includes toll roads (pay roads where there is a per-use charge) in the routes by default. If
you disable toll roads, the navigation system plans the best toll-free route.

• - The navigation system includes ferries in a planned
route by default. However, a map does not necessarily contain information
about the accessibility of temporary ferr ies. You might also need to pay a
fare on ferries.
• - Setting in which routes with carpool lanes
can be created or not created.
• - A border crossing may be a shorter route
depending on the route. For this function, you can select whether or not to
cross a border when planning the route.
• - The navigation system excludes unpaved
roads by default: unpaved roads can be in a bad condition and usually you
cannot reach the speed limit on them.
4. The route has already been recalculate d. Select to return to the Map
screen.
Some functions are not available depending on some countries and regions.

4 Reference Guide
4.1 Concepts
4.1.1 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides much more than just a usual automatic zoom feature:
• While following a route: when approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the
view angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next junction. If the
next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to be flat so
you can see the road in front of you.
• While driving without an active route: Smart Zoom will zoom in if you drive
slowly and zoom out when you drive at high speed.
• Off: Turns the Smart Zoom setting off.
4.1.2 Route calculat ion and recalculation
The navigation system calculates the route based on your preferences:
• Route planning methods: • : Gives a quick route if you can tr avel at or near the speed limit
on all roads.
• : Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all possible routes.
• : This method combines the merits of the Fast and
Short routes: The navigation system makes a calculation for the Fast
route, but it also includes other road s in the calculation in consideration
of fuel economy.
• : Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult maneuvers. With this option, you can make the navigation system take, for example,
the highway/freeway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.

Whenever data exist, route calculation take s into account historical traffic data for
the given day of week and time of day (page 76).
If the setting for Traffic Settings is valid, Real-time Traffic events are taken into
account and the route is largely modified.
The navigation system automa tically recalculates the route if you deviate from the
proposed itinerary or if a newly received Traffic event concerns a part of the
recommended route.
For further information about Route Settings see page 80.
Some functions are not available depending on some countries and regions.

4.1.4 Speed limit warning (Only some countries and regions)
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the roads. The navigation
system is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not
be available for your region (ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all
roads on the map.
The speed warning can be set from the Warning Settings (page 78).
Setting can be selected using Warning Settings:
• Audio warning: You will hear a warning beep if you exceed the speed limit by a certain percentage.
• Visual warning: If you exceed the speed limit on a road, the speed limit for the
current road is shown on the map.
You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.
4.1.5 Traffic information in route planning (Only some countries and regions)
The recommended route is not always the same between two points. Offline
historical traffic info rmation (historical speed informat ion or traffic patterns) can be
taken into account in the route calculation based on the time of day and the day of
week whenever suitable data exists. In addition, real-time traffic information can
help you avoid current traffic events like temporary road closures or a traffic jam
caused by an accident. Both functions are subject to data availability.
Select after selecting on the MA P screen to display the historical
traffic information on the map. A 2D map is displayed with road segments colored
by the density of the traffic in the given period. The current information is shown
when you open the screen. Modify the day of week and the time of day to see the
desired period.

4.1.5.1 Historical traffic
If historical traffic informat
ion is available with the map data, the navigation system
can use it when planning a route. In norma l cases, these statistics help you avoid
usual traffic jams on the given day of week in the given hour but in some cases like
on public holidays that fall on normal weekdays, they can be misleading. You can
disable this feature in Traffic Settings (page 79).
Select after selecting on the MAP screen to display the historical
traffic information on the map.
