Navigating to your destination
Routes
A route is a path from your current location to one or more destinations.
• The device calculates a recommended route to your destination based on the preferences you set, including
the route calculation mode (Changing the route calculation mode, page 17) and avoidances (Avoiding
Delays, Tolls and Areas, page 18).
• You can start navigating to your destination quickly using the recommended route, or you can select an
alternative route (Starting a route, page 13).
• If there are specific roads you need to use or avoid, you can customise the route (Shaping Your Route,
page 17).
• You can add multiple destinations to a route (Adding a location to your route, page 17).

Route, page 17).
The device calculates a route to the location and guides you using voice prompts and information on the map
(Your route on the map, page 15). A preview of the major roads in your route appears at the edge of the map
for several seconds.
If you need to stop at additional destinations, you can add the locations to your route (Adding a location to your
route, page 17).
