Finding alternative routes

Once you have planned a route, you may want to change something about the

route, without changing your destination.

Why change the route?

Maybe for one of these reasons:

• You can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead.

• You want to travel via a particular location, to pick someone up, stop for

lunch or fill up with petrol.

• You want to avoid a difficult junction or a road you don’t like.

Find alterna-

tive...

Tap Find alternative... in the Main Menu to change the route that is cur-

rently planned.

The Find alternative... button is also shown in the route summary screen

after you plan a route.

Calculate

alternative

Tap this button to calculate an alternative to the route already planned.

Your ONE/XL/XXL will look for another route from your current location to

your destination.

If you decide you would prefer to use the original route after all, tap Recal-

culate original.

Why would I need to do this?

Apart from the roads near your position and near your destination, the new

route will use totally different roads to reach your destination. This is an

easy way of calculating a totally different route.

Avoid

roadblock

Tap this button if you can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead. You then

have to choose how much of the route ahead you want to avoid.

Choose from the different options: 100m, 500m, 2000m, 5000m. Your ONE/

XL/XXL will recalculate your route avoiding the section of the route for the

distance you selected.

Don’t forget that once a new route is calculated, you may have to turn off

the road you are on very soon.

If the roadblock suddenly clears, tap Recalculate original to return to your

original route.
