Avoiding features on a route

You can choose to avoid some features that are on your currently planned route. You can avoid the following route features:

• Toll Roads
• Ferries and car shuttle trains
• Carpool Lanes
• Unpaved Roads

Note: Carpool lanes are sometimes known as High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes (HOV lanes) and are not present in every country. To travel on these lanes, you may need to have more than one person in the car, for example, or the car may need to use environmentally-friendly fuel.

If you choose to avoid a route feature, a new route is planned.

In Route Planning in the Settings Menu, you can set how each route feature is handled when a new route is planned.

To avoid a feature on your route, do the following.

1. Select the Main Menu button to open the Main Menu.

   

2. Select Current Route.

   

3. Select Avoid toll roads and More.

   

   A screen opens showing a list of the features you can avoid. The features found on your route are highlighted.

4. Select feature that you want to avoid.
5. Select OK.

   A new route is found that avoids the route feature. The new route is shown on the map view.

   Note: It may not be possible to find an alternative route around the route feature if none exists.

   Guidance to your destination resumes. As soon as you start driving, the guidance view is shown automatically.
