Select Settings in the Main Menu, then select Route Planning.
When a faster route is available
If a faster route is found while you are driving, TomTom Traffic can replan your trip to use the faster route. Select from the following options:
Always take the fastest route - the fastest route will always be chosen for you.
Ask me so I can choose - you will be asked if you want to take the faster route. You can manually select the faster route or you can select the route by steering toward it.
Don't ask me - your app will not find faster routes for you.
Always plan this type of route
The types of route you can choose from are as follows:
Fastest route - the route which takes the least time.
Shortest route - the shortest distance between the locations you set. This may not be the quickest route, especially if the shortest route is through a town or city.
Most eco-friendly route - the most fuel-efficient route for your trip.
Winding route - the route with the most turns.
Avoid interstate highways - this type of route avoids all highways.
Walking route - a route designed for making the trip on foot.
Bicycle route - a route designed for making the trip on a bicycle.
Avoid on every route
You can choose to avoid ferries and car shuttle trains, toll roads, carpool lanes, and unpaved roads. Set how your TomTom Go Navigation app should manage each of these road features when the device calculates a route.
Note: Carpool lanes, or High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes (HOV), are not present in every country. To travel on these lanes, you may need to have more than one person in the car, or the car may need to use environmentally-friendly fuel.
