Adding a location to your route

Before you can add a location to your route, you must be navigating a route (Starting a route, page 5).

You can add locations to the middle or end of your route. For example, you can add a petrol station as the next destination in your route.

TIP: to create complex routes with multiple destinations or scheduled stops, you can use the trip planner to plan, schedule and save a trip (Planning a trip, page 15).

From the map, select > Where To?.

Search for a location (Finding and saving locations,

page 7).

Select a location.

Select Go!.

Select an option:

• To add the location as the next destination in your route,

select Add As Next Stop.

• To add the location to the end of your route, select Add as

Last Stop.Add As Last Stop

• To add the location and edit the order of destinations in

your route, select Add to Active Route.

The device re-calculates the route to include the added location and guides you to the destinations in order.

Shaping Your Route

Before you can shape your route, you must start a route (Starting a route, page 5).

You can manually shape your route to change its course. This allows you to direct the route to use a certain road or go through a certain area without adding a destination to the route.

Select anywhere on the map.

Select Shape Route.

TIP: you can select to zoom in on the map and select a

more precise location. The device enters route-shaping mode and recalculates the

route to travel through the selected location. Select Go!.

If necessary, select an option:

• To add more shaping points to the route, select additional locations on the map.

• To remove a shaping point, select the shaping point and select Remove.

Taking a detour

You can take a detour for a specified distance along your route or detour around specific roads. This is useful if you encounter construction zones, closed roads or poor road conditions.

From the map, select > Edit Route.

Select an option:

• To re-route for a specific distance, select Detour by Distance.

• To detour around a specific road on the route, select

Detour by Road.

Changing the route calculation mode

Select Settings > Navigation > Calculation Mode.

Select an option:

• Select Faster Time to calculate routes that are faster to drive, but can be longer in distance.

• Select Off Road to calculate point-to-point routes (without roads).

• Select Shorter Distance to calculate routes that are shorter in distance, but can take more time to drive.

Stopping the route

• From the map, select > Stop.

• From the home screen, select Stop.

Using Suggested Routes

Before you can use this feature, you must save at least one location and enable the travel history feature (Navigation

settings, page 18).

Using the myTrends™ feature, your device predicts your destination based on your travel history, the day of the week and the time of day. After you have driven to a favourite location several times, the location may appear in the navigation bar on the map, along with the estimated time of travel and traffic information.

Select the navigation bar to view a suggested route to the location.

Avoiding Delays, Tolls and Areas

Avoiding traffic delays on your route

Before you can avoid traffic delays, you must be receiving traffic information (Receiving traffic data using your smartphone,

page 14).

By default, the device optimises your route to avoid traffic delays automatically. If you have disabled this option in the traffic settings (Traffic Settings, page 19), you can view and avoid traffic delays manually.

While navigating a route, select > Traffic.
