Vehicle Profiles
WARNING
Entering your vehicle profile characteristics does not guarantee that your vehicle's characteristics will be
accounted for in all route suggestions or that you will receive the warning icons in all cases. Limitations may
exist in the map data such that your device cannot account for these restrictions or road conditions in all cases.
Always defer to all posted road signs and road conditions when making driving decisions.
By using different vehicle profiles, you can quickly change several device settings, such as which map layers are
enabled and which route calculation mode is used by default.
Routing and navigation are calculated differently based on your vehicle profile. The device avoids including
restricted or impassable areas in routes based on the dimensions, weight, and other characteristics you entered
for your vehicle.
The current active vehicle profile is indicated by an icon in the status bar. The navigation and map settings on
your device can be customized separately for each vehicle type.
