Tap the Route planning button to set the way your TomTom GO LIVE
calculates the routes that you plan. The settings for planning consist of several
options that are spread over several screens. Each setting is described below.
Route planning
Set the type of route you want your GO LIVE to calculate.
Tap IQ Routes to set if you want the device to use IQ Routes information to help find the best route.
Fastest route
Choose whether you want to avoid highways.
Replanning settings
Set whether you want your GO LIVE to replan the current route if a faster route is found while you are
driving. This is useful if traffic builds up or clears, further ahead on your route. Choose from the
following settings:
Always switch to that route - select this option to receive no messages when a faster route is
found. The current route is automatically re-calculated to be the fastest one.
Ask me if I want that route - select this option to be asked if you want to take the new route.
When asked if you wish to take the alternative route, tap Yes to have the current route
recalculated as the fastest one. Tap No if you don't want to take the alternative route. If you
change your mind, tap the balloon at the top of the screen to take the alternative route.
Tap Info to see a summary of both the original and alternative routes. You can then tap Done to
take the fastest route or Current route to remain on your original route.
Don't ask, just show me - select this option to receive no messages and simply be shown the
new route on the screen. You can then tap the balloon if you decide you want to use the
alternative route.
Map information settings
Set whether you want to be warned if your route passes through an area where your map contains
only limited information.
Toll road, ferry, carpool lanes and unpaved road settings
Set how your GO LIVE should manage each of these four road features when the device calculates a
route.
