Navigation Mode
:
On-road navigation creates a turn by turn
itinerary using the road network on the
map. Switch to off-road navigation to navi-
gate between destinations in a straight line.
!
Route Planning Method
:
The route calculation can be optimised for
different situations and vehicle types by
changing the planning method.
!
Fast
:
Calculates a route with the shortest tra-
vel time to your destination as a priority.
Usually the best selection for fast and
normal cars.
!
Green
:
Calculates a quick but fuel efficient
route based on the fuel consumption
data given in Route settings. Travel cost
and CO
2
emission calculations are esti-
mations only. They cannot take eleva-
tions, curves and traffic conditions into
account.

!
Short
:
Calculates a route with the shortest dis-
tance to your destination as a priority.
Usually practical for pedestrians, cy-
clists or slow vehicles. Searching for a
short route regardless of the speed, this
route type is rarely practical for normal
vehicles.
!
Economical
:
For vehicle types where
“
Green
”
routing
is not available, this method combines
the benefits of
“
Fast
”
and
“
Short
”
. This
system calculates as if it were calculat-
ing the
“
Fast
”
route, but it takes other
roads as well to save fuel.
p
This item is available for AVIC-F160-2
only.
!
Easy
:
Results in a route with fewer turns and
no difficult manoeuvres. With this op-
tion, you can make this system to take,
for example, the motorway instead of a
series of smaller roads or streets.
Changing road types used
To recalculate the current route with different
road type preferences, follow the steps below.
p
To let the route fit your needs, you can also
set which road types are to be considered
for or to be excluded from the route if possi-
ble. Excluding a road type is a preference. It
does not necessarily mean total prohibi-
tion.
p
If your destination can only be accessed
using some of the excluded road types,
they will be used but only as much as ne-
cessary. In this case a warning icon will be
shown on the route parameter, and the part
of the route not matching your preference
will be displayed in a different colour on
the map.
