Advanced planning

Although navigating from your current position is the

function that you’ll use most often, there may be times

when you want to plan ahead. Choosing ‘Advanced
planning’

on the main menu lets you look at the best

route and journey time between any two given locations or

get directions that will help someone else get to your current

position.

Tip: You may need to use

in order to see the ‘Advanced

planning’ icon.

Rather than use your GPS position, with ‘Advanced
planning’
you choose your departure location using either

an address, a Point Of Interest, or a favorite location, for

example. You then pick a destination in the same way and

finally choose a planning option (fastest, shortest, walking,

etc.).

This means that you can use ‘Advanced planning’ to

calculate routes even when you do not have a GPS signal.

If you’d like this choice every

time you navigate, or if you’d like

to change the default setting, see
‘Planning preferences’ in the
‘Change preferences’ menu.
